Publisher: Electronic Arts · Developer: Eon Software · Genre: Strategy

Lords of Conquest is based on the board game Borderlands and challenges players to build or capture three cities and hold them for at least one round to win. To achieve this, players must gather resources like iron, coal, wood, gold, and horses while protecting them from others. Against a single opponent, tactical warfare takes center stage, while games with three or four players include a trading phase where resources can be exchanged, requested, or extorted. The game features twenty pre-made maps, including North America, China, and the world, as well as options to generate new maps or create custom ones in the editor.
