What players say
Mixed feelings about this game. I love the King Arthur with the high fantasy setting and the whole story rpg system which is really good, kinda reminding me of the old Warhammer Battlemarch game. On the other hand the controls including the camera and game stability is not great. The controls are cluncky as, you will get use to them but it is a bit off putting at first. The game itself is quite old and wasn't built...

King Arthur II: The Role-Playing Wargame is a fantasy strategy RPG developed by NeocoreGames and published by Paradox Interactive.

I... I don't why I let my self see this entire thing through. King Arthur II is a barely functioning Total War like RTS with a light sprinkling of RPG elements. The game runs horribly and physically hurts too play (if you can get that far), along with graphics looking like they were created on a fancy potato. But while I do wish to never play this play again, that is not to say that this game didn't have promise...
