Yeah.

I've got this game I've been searching for years - it's quite damn old. It was looking like this a lot:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:HoMM2_screenshot.png

It was some sort of strategy game. IIRC the graphics were really poor - it was nearly black and white (or maybe it was my computer not being good/bad enough for it.). You were sort of conquering territories like in Hearts of Iron/Europa Universalis way.

Any suggestions? The theme was medieval, btw.

Medieval Total War? It wasn't black and white but the campaign map was a map drawn on parchment.

You're very close, but my game was 2D. #Tongue

HoMM doesn't have territories like in HoI or Total War.

Oh wait, we're talking Heroes of Might and Magic, 1, 2, or 3. Based on that shot.
The Heroes 3 campaigns had territories in the campaign, but not in skirmishes.

Therefore not part of the Heroes series.

@Orac: It's not Stronghold.

It's definitelly Heroes of Might and Magic. But it's one of the few Heroes games that I don't have (HoMM2). I have the 1, 3 (and expansions), 4, 5...

Ok, I'm going to try again. It's similar, it has a gameplay similar to Total War, it's not Heroes (not at all), and I think it might even be a pre-2000 game.

Lords of the realm 1 or 2. I can send 2 to you if you like. I love it and still play it. It either is the game you look for or comes very close since it plays very similar like total war and has medieval theme.

Ding ding ding! Orange Nero wins. As for the game, I'll get it on my own (since it's abandonware).

glad I could help. I hear that network games are still possible, I would like to play against a human once so...
As far as I know it is not abandonware and I had to search like crazy for a dowload. I own it tough. 2 still works on win7.

for anyone interested into seeing it and the game prior to Total war http://www.giantbomb.com/lords-of-the-realm-ii/61-8258/

Actually I read somewhere that it really is abandonware, and I trust that source since I seriously doubt Sierra gives a damn for a game from 1996.

BTW, where did you get it from? I got a "abandonware" version which should have worked on XP, but it asks me for the CD. Funny, I got my hands on the CD, but it doesn't say that the CD is inside.

EDIT: Fixed it, nevermind.
