Ashes & Blood is an isometric, turn-based strategy RPG set in a dark medieval fantasy world.
Choose your faction, exploit the land, and bend the rules of war to your will.
Whether you're crushing enemies in tactical TRPG-style battles or expanding
your reach across a procedurally generated 4X world,
the power is yours鈥攁nd it's only growing.
The game features two interconnected modes:
World Mode, a dynamic 4X sandbox where you manage cities,
recruit armies, and try to conquer a procedurally generated map.
Battle Mode, a rich tactical layer of grid-based combat with elevation,
status effects, and devastating profession-based combos.
But what truly sets Ashes & Blood apart is its unapologetic embrace of player freedom
and broken builds. Want to exploit terrain generation to create a map tilted in your faction鈥檚
favor? Do it. Want to stack professions into a synergy so absurd it melts enemies
in one turn? That鈥檚 the point. Each campaign you finish feeds into a meta-progression system,
unlocking even more powerful tools, traits, and map modifiers for future runs.
But don鈥檛 feel to save, the combat is fast-paced, brutal and the AI
WILL give you a hard time, if you鈥檙e not careful.
Dual Game Modes: Switch seamlessly between World Mode, a large-scale 4X
sandbox of exploration and conquest, and Battle Mode, a tactical TRPG-style
combat system with layered maps and precise unit control.

and tactical philosophies. Every faction plays differently鈥攁nd breaks differently.

Meta-Progression: Finish a campaign to unlock powerful perks, traits, or entirely
new professions for your faction in future runs. Your victories echo forward.
Profession System: Customize units using a primary + secondary profession system.

status interactions in intense, turn-based battles.
