01 / THE GAME
Your orders. One unfolding battle.
Time to think. Consequences that move together. Embattled Frontier is a single-player tactical game about people defending the place they call home.
I
Build your company
Bring warriors, archers, rogues, clerics and wizards into a squad. Choose who you need for the ground ahead.
II
Commit your plan
Position your fighters, prepare attacks and use their abilities. Review your orders before resolving the round.
III
Face the outcome
Both sides act along the same timeline. Movement, sight and timing shape how your plans meet the enemy’s.
02 / THE STORY
Retired generals. Unfinished history.
Ilyra and Hades left the Empire of Rathien for a quieter life. The frontier had other plans.
When raiders threaten Hearthmere, Ilyra takes command again. Townsfolk, a hunter, a blacksmith and a thief become something none of them expected: a company.
Hear the people behind the orders. Character voices and narrated scenes bring Ilyra, her companions and the strangers they meet to life. Between battles, conversations around camp reveal the people carrying this fight.
Between battles, a company becomes more than a roster.

VOICES OF THE FRONTIER
Hear their courage. And their sharp edges.
A company is more than the orders you give it.
Voiced dialogue and narration carry the story from Ilyra’s resolve to the rogue’s dry wit. Illustrated portraits, character performances and music give the journey its own rhythm.
Read the dialogue as you listen, pause a scene, or continue at your own pace.
04 / POWERED BY CHRONA
One clock. Every consequence.
Chrona is the original tactical simulation at the heart of Embattled Frontier. Both sides commit orders, then the engine resolves them together.
Its rules are deterministic: the same starting state, orders and random seed produce the same result. The visuals show what happened; the simulation decides it.
