The Emperor has decreed the Irongrave is ready - the tournament shall begin.
Recruit a team of gladiators and compete against friends and AI enemy teams in tournaments in the Irongrave, with tactical turn-based combat.
Tournaments
A tournament in Irongrave starts with you recruiting a team of 5 heroes - however you must pick from 10 randomly generated units - meaning you must be flexible and adaptable to win, rather than just being able to rely on a favorite strategy.In-between tournament matches you have the chance to heal your heroes wounds, buy magic items, level up your heroes to improve specific stats and abilities and more.
Heroes
Over 18 different classes, ranging from melee Fighters, quick Monks, and powerful Wizards - to Necromancers able to detonate the fallen bodies of friends and foes.Barbarian - Brash melee warriors able to charge enemy lines with high HP to tank hits, but low armor leaving them vulnerable to enemy status effects
Sorcerer - Ranged magic users that can deal damage in a wide area and set enemies on fire
Blood Mage - Magic users able to pull blood from enemies to heal themselves and shoot their own blood into allies - healing them at a cost of their own HP
Fighter - Melee heroes with high armor and consistent damage, able to keep enemies nearby
Necromancer - Magic users able to summon the dead, their Detonate Corpse ability makes them very powerful at the end of a round
Storm Mage - Ranged magic users focusing on AoE attacks with effects to slow and push enemies

Combat
Combat is quick paced and tactical - you will need to out-think and out-strategize your opponents, either AI teams or friends over Steam.Many attacks inflict powerful status effects - from slowing enemies, preventing healing or stunning them. Each unit has a magic and physical armor value that protects them from these effects as long as that armor remains. Inflicting such status effects and keeping your own units safe is a major part of a winning strategy
