A dark fantasy tactical RPG where the Alliance is the true protagonist.
Heroes die. The Alliance survives.
This is not a game about chosen ones.
In Foedus, you don't build a party of legendary heroes destined to save the world.
You build an Alliance — a desperate, evolving war machine.
Heroes are assets. Useful. Replaceable. Sometimes tragic.
What you will actually do
Prepare in your stronghold (Barracks, Alchemy, Library, Mystic Vault, Market)
Deploy a squad with limited abilities per mission — no cooldown spam
Fight turn-based tactical battles where positioning and timing matter
Adapt when your Alliance develops negative traits — because survival has a cost
The Alliance System
Your Alliance has 5 branches, each upgradeable and specializable:
Barracks – Recruit, train, replace heroes
Alchemy – Research and craft potions to enhance your heroes
Library – Research and craft scrolls to unleash against your enemies
Mystic Vault – Identify, study, and awaken magical artifacts for your party
Market – Exchange vile gold for what the alliance cannot forge
Every Alliance is born with traits — great strengths that come at the cost of necessary weaknesses.
No two Alliances evolve the same way.
The core loop
Prepare → Choose strategy → Deploy → Tactical combat → Rewards → Upgrade → (Lose someone) → Evolve → Repeat
Current state
The procedural campaign system is already working — maps are generated, full campaigns can be played from start to finish.
Currently implemented:
Random map generation for high replayability
Fully playable turn-based combat
A set of classes (more to come)
What I'm building next:
Handcrafted campaigns with designed maps
Additional classes
More enemies, relics, and Alliance upgrades
No Early Access decision has been made yet. The priority right now is expanding the core systems and listening to what players want to see next.
Wishlist if you believe in Alliances that outlive heroes

And remember:
"Heroes fall. The Alliance survives."
