This game is so manly, my mouse is starting to grow hair.

Probably one of my favorite sleeper hits of the year or several years!

What people don't realize, since no one mentioned it, is that it used to be a free source mod; I played it all the time then, but then they took it down and now are selling it.

Nonetheless, it is a great game :)

Are alot of people playing this?

I was considering picking this up during the sale, but didn't think the online community would be that big.

It's a popular game right now. The community is plenty big.

Saw this but did not know the premise. I thought it was another total war type game. Looks like I'm completely wrong. Picked up a 4 pack for me and a few buddies. This looks to be awesome.

I absolutely love this game. The speed and brutality make for some really hilarious moments.

When everyone runs to engage after spawning, hold back for a second and circle around from the side. A well-timed flank will net you 3-4 kills easily.

Oh, and I spam 'C' constantly.

Its a FPS multiplayer shooter but in a Medieval theme. Instead of guns you use bows, swords, axes, shields, and etc.,

Edit: Not that this is a bad thing. From vids I have seen it looks quite fun.

DOWN WITH THE REBELLION! I feel like an extra in some cheesy knock off version of Hamlet.

My wife saw this and was like, "WTF Is this monty python search for the holy grail?"

Just did a lan with this game today. Created a dedicated server for the group of us. Only 6 players but on Arena it's a lot of fun.

The nice thing with your own server and people you know is that you can come up with weird but fun games like 2 vanguards vs 4 archers. In a map like arena it's pretty hilarious. That and dedicated close quarters archery battles is fun.

One of the funnest lan-able games we've had in a while.

I just started playing this game a few days ago. I've found that Archer is a very hard class to play. I usually have at least a 1:1 kill ratio, generally better, with other classes. When I tried Archer once I went 2:15, and the 2 kills were with the sword :p

And usually I don't find them that much of a threat either. However, one of the last matches I played was very different. There were 5 archers on the other team all working together. Maybe connected by a LAN. They all ran in a very tight formation and all seemed to target the same enemy. That was a very tough nut to crack. You would charge them and have 5 arrows coming at you. One guy charging was sure to die. Same thing with two.

So I changed my initial view. At first I thought they were the weakest class. However, if a few of them work together to take down targets, they can be pretty good.
