This is the setting of Iron Grip: Warlord, the first commercial game from Isotx. You play as one of the savagely independent Atelia warriors of Warlord Sahrab's army. Atelia has been invaded by the Confederation, a vast and ruthless army that has prepared the way for its invasion by sending in missionaries to convert the Atelians to the Fahrong cause. Atelia is rich in resources, and both the Confederation - led by the powerful Fahrong nation - and the Rahmos Protectorate know that Atelia would be a key conquest in their power struggles. Atelia itself is a fractured, anarchic country, with divided loyalties. It was Warlord Sahrab who realized that this large scale invasion cannot be resisted until the whole of Atelia unites, and so he engages in this deadly guerrilla warfare, designed to provoke the Confederation into bombarding entire cities.
As a Warlord, you must use all of your skill to defend the city against the Confederate attacks. In an innovative blend of RTS and FPS gameplay, you will employ urban guerrilla tactics to fight off the hordes. You must protect your city at all costs, by building defense structures, setting traps, and taking the enemy on yourself.
Based on the Quake 3 engine, this project is the latest offering in the Iron Grip Universe. Team Lead and Designer Vincent van Geel states that:
"This game is all about casual fun: low system requirements, small filesize, and cool gameplay. We've taken the popular "Art of Defense" genre, and put a whole new spin on it."

We have six new screenshots from Iron Grip: Warlord - showing some of the in-battle scenes from both RTS and FPS views.
The object of the game, as mentioned, is to goad The Confederate army into more and more violent actions, causing them to lose the support of the local populace. Hence the 'Civilian Casualty Bonus'.

Wow, with each new set of screenshots, it looks better and better. Beautiful, especially for Q3. Can't wait.
I love the art style for this game. I'm looking forward to playing it. Guess i should go check out the oppression in the mean time.
can someone tell me what an indie game is? because i have no idea
also are they free?
En.wikipedia.org it's always a good idea to try wikipedia or Google ;)
It means it doesn't have a publisher. Most of the time, they are free.
i b with Cece. great game. hurry up, urge to play RISING...
This game looks great, however a big upgrade to the lighting would do wonders. It looks too dark, I know its still early in development, but it would be a nice thing to see in the future release.
I love the concept art, i love the idea, i love this game. Very nice work, keep it up.
