![]() Combat Pragmatist: All 3 heroes (and some bosses) can Kick to momentarily stun enemies and force them back a bit, useful for interrupting attacks, setting up your own, or keeping some distance between if your weapon is long-ranged.Aldon faces an Elite Halberdier from his own people, while Ellder faces a possessed Wood-Elf Royal Guard. Brainwashed and Crazy: Ellder and Aldon, in their respective journeys, must face possessed Elites from that region's warriors as their first major fight.He pulls a sword and starts swiping if you get too close to him. Bow and Sword in Accord: Ellder's first boss is a possessed Wood Elf Elite Ranger, who rapidly fires arrows while moving back.Boss Rush: Gladiator mode pits the player against bosses and elite units (who typically take at least one life to take down in Story mode) with only one life (but refilling health between fights).Why? Because he wanted to find one to kill. Blood Knight: Toldor's final boss is a Giant Troll.Blade on a Stick: Halberdiers, with their Halberds, can deal hefty damage from a long distance, but they are slow.He fights by raining fireballs from the sky and hurling them at one's face. Black Magic: The sorcerer Ellder fights at the end of his Episode successfully summons a tremendous Demon.Once he has the Orc at swordpoint, the three finally meet and explain their situations to each other before teaming up. Big Damn Heroes: Aldon jumps out and blocks Toldor's surprise attack on Ellder.BFS: Toldor's weapon is the slow, but long and powerful, "longsword".Anti-Villain Protagonist: Toldor has Revenge as a motivation to go after Ellder but the game makes it clear that the High Elves he's attacking and terrorizing are not possessed.This is particularly notable against the Elite Ranger, whose sword skills aren't that good compared to most bosses and ends up as little more than a pinata. You'll still have to watch out for mages and axe throwers though. And buying the Mithril Vest makes you invulnerable to arrows entirely. ![]() Annoying Arrows: Arrows do such minimal damage that it is possible to be a veritable pincushion before they kill you.You don't want to be taken alive by them. Admiring the Abomination: Toldor actually respects the Demon's strength love for violence, though not their penchant for torture.Fans of Ben Olding might notice the similarity between Warlords: Heroes and an older game of his called "Achilles" or even the Dragon Fist series. The game is available with all of its features at Kongregate. The game also includes a Survival mode and a Gladiator mode, in which you must face, in sequence, a number of powerful opponents. Playing each character constitutes an "Episode", and while each Episode does not necessarily have to be played in order, all three must be completed before you can go on to Episode Four and complete the story. The player takes control of Ellder, a Night Elf Whirler Aldon, Prince of the Men of the West (Swordsman), or Toldor, an Orc Longswordsman. It's just a flesh wound! Warlords: Heroes is a side-scrolling Beat 'em Up from Ben Olding Games, a Spinoff of Warlords: Call to Arms, an Adobe Flash RTS by the same person.
