Atheling: medieval strategy

Atheling is a medieval historical strategy game where real history is only the beginning. Become King of England in 1066 and decide what happens after the Battle of Hastings. Rule your kingdom, make political choices, build a dynasty and survive war, rival claims and succession as history drifts further from the version we know. Part turn based strategy, part dynasty simulator and part political life simulator, Atheling puts people and decisions at the centre of medieval history. Each campaign begins with a rich historical foundation: real rulers, families, rivalries, claims, relationships, battles and political conflicts drawn from the period. The people, relationships and pressures are grounded in history, but your choices can completely change what happens next. Replay campaigns as many times as you like, or continue your alternate history far beyond their original ending in sandbox mode. RULE, SURVIVE, CONTINUE Manage war, marriage, claims, relationships, legitimacy, alliances and succession. Your ruler will age and eventually die, but your dynasty continues. Children inherit. Rivals return. Alliances break. Claims pass between generations. Decisions made years earlier can become the next ruler's problem. CHANGE HISTORY Atheling combines the freedom of choice games with the long-term consequences of turn based strategy. Win a battle that was historically lost. Keep someone alive who was supposed to die. Create a royal marriage that never happened. Put a different family on the throne. Prevent a succession crisis, or accidentally create one. Some campaigns may stay close to recorded history. Others can become almost unrecognisable. BEGIN IN 1066 Take control of England during one of the most dramatic moments in medieval history. Face the rival claims of Harold Godwinson, William of Normandy and other contenders for the English crown. Survive invasions, the Battle of Hastings and the political struggle that follows. Other campaigns let you experience different rulers and periods, each with their own families, enemies and historical pressures. A MEDIEVAL STRATEGY GAME ABOUT PEOPLE Atheling is not about painting a map one territory at a time. Your kingdom is shaped through characters, relationships and decisions. Choose who to trust. Arrange marriages. Appoint your council. Respond to rivals. Secure your succession. Manage the crown. Decide when to fight and when to negotiate.
