Bannermen feels half baked and underfunded. It takes ideas from classics, but you’re really better off playing those again.
"Bannermen is a warfare-focused real-time strategy game with both single-player and multiplayer modes. In the single-player campaign, play as a fallen lord on a journey to regain power. In skirmish mode, test your skills against AI opponents. With a focus on unit control and map strategy, Bannermen offers a competitive experience for new and experienced RTS players alike."

Critic Reviews
Bannermen Review
Presumably some of the bugs and related issues might eventually get patched out; one thing that does not change though, is the core of the game. Given it is mostly a clone of a game over 15 years old, for all intents and purposes it is worse than <i[warcraft> all across the board. Almost every aspect of [i[Warcraft III is better than this game. This would need a massive overhaul to come close to recommending.

Bannermen’s appreciation of genre greats can be easily seen through the cracks in its shoddy construction. However, in between a single faction with a small, uninspired roster, bland story and writing, and very few options in terms of tactics and strategy, it’s tough to recommend. As rooted as it is in the genre’s past, it’s nowhere close to mastering what made RTS titles of yore great, ultimately being just a flimsy, soulless imitator.

Lord Berrian has the skills he needs to rebuild his kingdom and stop the evil Lord Karthor, but does he have what it takes to capture your heart in Bannermen? Our review.
