About

Ancient Frontier: Steel Shadows casts you as a leader of misfit outlaws and pirates carving through a lawless frontier. Battle across hex-based maps using tactical positioning and class-specific abilities to outmaneuver enemies. Manage resources, assign roles, and adapt strategies as you push toward hidden riches. The turn-based combat emphasizes careful planning over reflexes with a focus on unit synergy and terrain advantages. This 2018 PC and Linux release has a dedicated strategy core audience praising its layered decision-making. While not a big name in the genre, fans highlight the rewarding complexity of positioning and the varied mission structures. Single player only with no multiplayer options.
