Bladestorm: Nightmare
Bladestorm: Nightmare is the newest evolution of 2007’s Bladestorm: The Hundred Years’ War using the latest technologies and introducing many new elements. These technologies have made possible not only visual improvements, but also many new game elements. Bladestorm: Nightmare offers an entirely new gameplay experience. Dragons, cyclops and other monsters appear in the “Nightmare” scenario. Switching between controlled units adds a strong strategic element. Squads can be joined into an army of 200 strong for powerful attacks. Multi-player using the network. An enriched Character Editing function. And so much more.

Review coverage
Critic signal strength
Numeric critic scoring uses full scored reviews once available. Review-in-progress scores act as temporary early signal only until full review scores exist. Unscored reviews still count as coverage, but they are not included in the critic average.
