Story:Armies of Exigo is a real-time strategy video game for Microsoft Windows. The game was created by Black Hole Entertainment released in 2004 and distributed by Electronic Arts. One unique aspect of the game is that it has an underground mode. This makes the game more challenging as the player has to work on two fronts and might have an army come from an unexpected area.Show more

I had just finished playing all the Warcraft 3 campaigns and was looking for more Strategy goodness.
I then found this high-fantasy game that had everything I was looking for. The story was great but as a child I found it a very difficult game. I would love to take another shot at beating it!
The period after Warcraft III when many publishers tried to replicate the RTS + RPG formula had some real gems. Unfortunately, this was right before the death of PC gaming in retail, and the long period of "store wars" in early digital distribution.
Armies of Exigo is one of the casualties of the time, forgotten by everyone. It's time to bring it back, EA.
My memories of this game arent particularly detailed, the main and biggest one is that after a certian point the game just got too difficult, until years later i tried the game again, got my ass handed to me and just decided to cheat my way through the game wholesale haha
I remember finding this game in my local library (a place i use to go to a lot to rent comics and games when i was in my teens) I was really surprised how good and cool this game was and the story was quit something else. In my 20ties i bought the game on amazon from a random person and i still own my copy today with many other old school games bought the same way (I'm 35 now) Would be great to get this game on GoG as it seems to be forgotten by time and many ppl don't know it even exist.
Armies of Exigo is criminally underrated . I absolutly love this Game. Its an RTS just like Warcraft or Starcraft. Its not as good as Warcraft 3 but its pretty close. For me its a 5/5 Star Game. I still have this Game on CD as i keep all my Games i bought . But as widely known the Backwards Compatibility on Windows 11 is crap , you then need to Dowload a no CD file which im verry reluctantly do .
But even with that done you still have some Compatibility Proplems.
I need 3 Games to be happy in Life: Armies of Exigo / Black and White 2 / Battle for Middleearth 1 and 2
This game is a pure gem. Sadly WarCraft 3 overshadowed it, but this game deserved it's beautiful story's continuetion. The scale of battles are very intense, fought in the air, on the ground and undergroundbat the same time with the classic RTS style. Three totally different factions, map-wide effect spells, beautiful graphics. It's cinematics were second of it's time, bested only by WarCraft 3 itself.
I once had the discs for this game, sadly lost disc 2.
It would be amazing to replay this game, before I was a kid who bought it cause it looked cool and I'd love to actually play the game and not just stay in skirmish games.
I also love the art style and factions you get to play.
