King Arthur is an empire-building strategy game set in a medieval, mystical Britain where you will play the role of legendary Arthur, the Once and Future King. You build Camelot, enlist the Knights of the Round Table, unite the country and ultimately challenge the powers threatening the essence of all their previous endeavors. You choose their own path, be it the way of virtuous glory, the might of the Sidhe or your wish to succumb to the dark powers.

Lead hundreds of brave warriors on the magnificent battlefields of Britannia! King Arthur incorporates strategy as its most important element and offers such long-term game experience that makes the overall enjoyment similar to that provided by empire building strategies. Arthur's main objective is to conquer all 40 provinces of Britain, build grandiose medieval cities and unite the kingdom with his Knights of the Round Table. These heroes can be assigned to adventures, they participate in battles as unique units and they indirectly influence the life of the provinces.

“And the ancient race of the Sidhe has returned from the realm of twilight and thorns… “

The mystical race of the Sidhe is as old as Britannia itself. They were here when the land was young and filled with wonders. They walked among the first mortal tribes and they were feared by the mortal children of the new age: but as humankind grew stronger, the Sidhe withdrew to the realm called Tir na nÓg, the land beyond mortal understanding. They still exist in legends as the Fair Folk, faeries, spirits or even gods.

But the creatures of the Sidhe are not the small, winged pixies from the old tales. Neither the beautiful elven princesses that knights would love to save, nor the leprechauns with their bags of gold. The mightiest warriors of the Sidhe had been powerful soldiers, kings, wizards and enchantresses. The Sidhe had their own legendary heroes that the mortals of Britannia call now the gods of the Old Faith – Dana, Lugh or Prince Nuada Silverhand.

The gates leading to Tir na nÓg used to be rare and hidden, where the barriers between the two worlds were thin, and for a very long time Tir na nÓg was beyond mortal reach: the ancient stone circles or the darkest glades in the woods only opened on certain occasions… until now.

When King Arthur pulled the magic sword out of the stone and changed the fate and the face of whole Britannia, these gates began to open wide. The Sidhe warriors, the lords and the ladies have returned and they come and go between the worlds as they please.

They are cruel and terrifying and they don’t resemble anything you have ever heard of. They kidnap children, lure knights into the night and put spells on helpless damsels. They wear otherworldly crystal armour and love wicked riddles. They come from the deep woods and they weave the web of the mist around villages.

Britannia was reborn but suddenly it is threatened by a great war. There are some powerful rulers who also want to conquer the realm and don't believe or care that King Arthur might be the Once and Future King. They are dangerous rivals: the warlord-king of Wales, the monster-slaying Saxons and all the savage tribes of the north who gather around the flag of Morgawse, the Witch Queen of Orkney.
