Strategy titles seem to be in the perfect position for hybridization
with MMOGs. The RTS genre has already seen several MMOGs come out of
their developers, and finally the turn-based strategy titles will have
a game of their own as well. The developers at the Korean-based NDOORS
have put together a massively multiplayer turn-based strategy game
(MMOTSG) and are set to begin a closed beta for the title While there
have already been several MMORTSes, a turn-based strategy game will be
one of the first on the market. Ten Ton Hammer has received the
official press release along with 12 screens, so please enjoy!!


style="font-style: italic;">Atlantica brings back classic
turn-based gameplay and marries it to a
deep strategic framework that encompasses combat, character/party
development and city/country management. NDOORS, developer and
publisher of massively multiplayer online games (MMOGs), will launch
the Atlantica closed beta in July.
style="font-style: italic;">


NDOORS designed
Atlantica’s
combat, mercenary and city/country management systems to set it apart
from the rest of the MMO market.

style="font-style: italic;">


The turn-based combat
system
offers players the chance to strategically plan every move of the nine
characters in their group. Players can form teams of three to bring 27
controllable characters into combat. Or for simple fights, players can
preset each character/mercenary’s skill set and let the
auto-battle
system resolve the fight.




The mercenary system
gives players the
chance to manage multiple characters’ development
simultaneously. In
addition to their main character, players can hire eight mercenaries
each with a different class and skills. They can be obtained as an
infant and raised, married to other mercenaries and even have their own
children. Mercenaries’ stats will decline as they age,
necessitating
the need to constantly update and upkeep the mercenary roster.

style="font-style: italic;">


The
city/country management system adds a layer of strategic play beyond
typical party level interaction. Guilds can establish control of cities
and go to war with each other. They will need to plan everything from
culture, commerce and industry, even down to the placement of buildings
for the maximum output. Groups of guilds can even band together to take
control of countries. Controlling cities and countries allows them to
obtain rare items and mercenaries.

“We really
strived to create
a game that gave players something new,” said Peter Kang, CEO
of NDOORS
Interactive. “Atlantica was designed to bring the gameplay
that RPG and
strategy fans love the most to the MMO world. Atlantica takes smarts,
requiring planning and strategy at every step.”

style="font-style: italic;">


Players take on
the quest to destroy the Oriharukon energy, a powerful sensor from
Atlantis that is poisoning the world. This journey will take players
around the globe, including the ancient civilizations of Hanyang
(Korea), Indus Valley (India and Pakistan), Mesopotamia (Iraq, Syria
and Turkey) and Egypt, as well as North America and legendary locales
such as the Pyramids and Angkor Wat.
