My introductory game to the Warhammer World.
The game is quite unique even with today's releases, as its campaign is made of scenarios—with a lethal finality on the loss of units.
Best Merc Game ever! Fantastic Setting within the Warhammer-Universe, timeless Mechanics and until today not matched by any other Game, please bring it back, it deserves to be in your Hall of Fame!
Warhammer Dark Omen was a my first strategic game to play in my first pc 1998. The only mode to finish that game was to use cheat.....i still remember the words! Amazing
I love the campaign of this game. The battles are all meaningful, the dialogues are well written and the story is interesting and immersive. Its almost like reading a good story book.
Oh god. I remember this game and I recently wanted to replay it. I don’t know why, but I remember it having “pretty good” german voiceovers. My favorite thing of all time about it, is the fact that the german pc gaming magazine “GameStar” gave it an award for ‘extraordinary realism’ because terrain height and so on was an important factor in the battles. Bold choice for a warhammer fantasy game.
I remember being so hooked on this game, that when my alloted PC time was over I recreated the missions using Lego, humming the background music and mimicing the sound effects. I couple of years ago I managed to make my copy run on a modern system after some wrangling, and I'd say it still holds up, 3D terrain with character sprites is a really good combo, and even the interface while clunky, is still a massive improvement over SotHR. Trully a Good Old Game that could use some love in the "running it on modern hardware" department.
If you've never heard of warhammer, Dark omen brings you into the world and shows you what to expect. It doesn't tell you it shows you, and the first time you're wizard explodes will leave a lasting impression

Final Fantasy IIFinal Fantasy II is the second installment in the Final Fantasy series, developed and published by Squaresoft. It was directed by Hironobu Sakaguchi, with Yoshitaka Amano designing the characters and Nobuo Uematsu composing the score.
It was notable for being one of the first story-intensive RPGs released for console systems, and introducing many series staples, including chocobos and a character named Cid. Its story is unrelated to the original FINAL FANTASY, and its gameplay is a major departure from the previous title for eliminating the traditional experience-based progression system.Open world Fantasy Sandbox
