For Immediate Release
Aterdux Entertainment Releases "Discord Times" 1.3

&lt;b&gt;Indie game developer present the well-balanced mix - RPG + strategy + adventure.&lt;/b&gt;

"Discord Times" is a well-balanced mix of RPG, strategy and adventure with a straightforward story line. 

This game with heavy medieval fantasy influence is remarkable believable. The kingdom is exhausted by the long train of persistent wars with the neighbors; the resources and power of the royal authority are considerably weakened. The royal vassals, who were supposed to be the pillars of the monarchy, raid their neighbors and attack the monarch himself. In this turning point in the kingdom's history. One of the tree heroes - Knight, Ranger or Archmage - has to gather an army, defend the King's throne and fight with the betrayers of his fatherland and with the Devil's incarnates.

Like most strategic games, "Discord Times" has buildings and structures (more than 50 different models) that produce troops, enhance trade, levy taxes and research new spells. Many of them can be captured from the enemies. Powerful Artificial Intelligence engine guarantees that battle scenarios are never to take the same path. While, strategy and planning is an important part of the game, most of the game time is spent battling opponents.

Game's roleplaying component is much richer and entertaining than that of an average RPG game. "Discord Times" has 130+ artifacts with magic properties and 90+ game characters, whose actions are governed by a non-linear development algorithm. Another popular addition to the genre is so called "global magic" with 25+ different spells that can weaken or strengthen an entire army - a very powerful tactical weapon indeed.

To submerge players into the atmosphere of the Middle Ages, the game comes with an original soundtrack that features melodic medieval tunes and ballads. All this, combined with simple interface and low learning curve, makes "Discord Times" a hidden jewel that is waiting to be discovered by demanding gamers.

"Discord Times" is distributed electronically over the Internet; free demo version is available at http://www.discordtimes.com/ for evaluation. 

The price of a single copy is 19.95 US Dollars.

If you have any questions, would like to request editor's copy, want to inquire about special prices for volume buyers/software resellers, or have a business proposal, please contact Nikolay Armonik at director@discordtimes.com

      <Char_Desc_2000>Discord Times is a well-balanced mix of RPG, strategy and adventure with a straightforward story line.

    The events of the game take place in a small feudal kingdom.
    The kingdom is exhausted by the long train of persistent wars with the neighbors; the resources and power of the royal authority are considerably weakened. Royal vassals - feudal lords - exploit their status for their own mercenary ends. They establish their own laws on their lands and try to seize the lands of neighbors, till it can be done with a perfect impunity.
    The kingdom stands on the verge of a civil war, cities abandon to submit the lords, to whose domains they belong, and declare self-government. Gangs of marauders, big and small, scour the woods. Discord Times reign the lands - and only they are the true rulers.

    Hero can play as a Knight, Ranger or Archmage. Naturally, each character type has own advantages and drawbacks. But all three have the same objective - gather an army of loyal followers, defend the King's throne from attacks and punish the traitors.

    The game stand out with its strong Strategy Component (in fact, it's a strategy game with RPG elements) and heavy combat load - big part of playtime is devoted to battling enemies.
Spells, magic, curses, weapons and strategic thinking all come into play in this challenging game, as one Hero tries to reunite the kingdom, fights armies of feudal lords and fends off bands of wandering marauders. This is a "keep the sword in the hand" kind of game, when a brawl happens at the least expected time.</Char_Desc_2000>
