Warlords: A Gateway Drug of a Flash Game

Man, This did not need to take that long, and it technically isn't finished either.
These flash games were a gateway to many things.

Holy crap the thumbnail alone activated every single sleeper memory that i didnt know i had

[TheSmthers]

I played the shit out of flash games when I was younger. Warlords, Sonny and Sinjid, Swords and Sandals, Feudalism, Fancy Pants, Chaos Faction, Raze, Age of War, Territory War, Arcane Castle, Achilles, Last Stand, Mastermind, Flash Trek, Epic War, Stick Wars, Epic Battle Fantasy... The list of amazing Flash games and animations was endless, these are probably only like the 10% of the Flash Games I can remember right now that I loved. Made me sad to see the end of Flash but these games will never leave my childhood memories.

Remember that you can still access most flash games through flashpoint archive, it is a real nostalgia trip

Warlords: Heroes was my crack.
A more complex version of the classic:
ACHILLES

I'm glad I'm not the only one that forgot this gem of a game, this, the last stand, warfare 1914/1944 and the age of war games were just straight up bangers back in the day

[siryassenius]

You have no Idea how many nights I spent searching for this game and trying to remember it's name after I played it so many years ago. God bless you and the algorithm that decided to randomly bring your video to my recommendations!

[JS-gckf]

Feudalism, Battle Gear, Siegius, Stick War, Warlords, Strategy Defense, Mud and Blood 2, Age of War, War and Beyond: Deadly Strategies, Warfare 1917/1944, Epic War, Miragine War... I used to play so many strategy games. Thanks for bringing my memories back

My brother caught me playing this one time, I told him it was almost the perfect game, he pushed me aside, put Mount and Blade on my computer.

Hell of a core memory, thank you for the nostalgia trip

[WOWOW_]

My god, every once in a while I'd get reminded of a game I loved playing as a kid and the wave of nostalgia hits like truck. Just last week I was reminded of the zombie game Last Stand.

Graphics were definately best in the first imo. Just detailed enough you knew what was what but not enough details to look janky like the newer ones. It was like with swords and sandals where the more complicated the designs were, the more the rough edges really showed where you kinda just ignored the jank in the older ones because it was all simplistic enough to flow together. Warlords was one of those classic games, glad to see it still being put around

[Zero-Dux]

Oh shit, this was my budget total war game with my broke ass pc.

[chronicmaster]

Saw the thumbnail “oh, that looks familiar” saw the gameplay “overwhelmingly nostalgic neuron activation”

[thergmtk]

Simplicity and clarity are honestly pretty great for visual appeal. You also get to fill in the gaps with your own imagination a bit, which I think is better than an overload of detail and a plethora of things to keep track of.

WHAT?! There's a second and third game? I've only played Warlords (1) and Warlords Heroes

[morgant.dulaman]

"...My main site to play games on was Kongregate."

Ah, fellow former Kongrade.

I always went with the Human Alliance. They're generic, but so are most human-based factions in fantasy strategy games. I liked the armor advantage plus their theme of humans allying (sans the western lads, of course) to kick the other species' rears. Didn't stop me from enjoying the other character's in "heroes, " though.

[BobyChanMan]

Warlords (the whole series), autumn war, mud and blood, submachine, there are too many good ones to even remember all the names. Flash games were my whole childhood

[micalangenburg]

I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS GAME FOR YEARS! I FORGOT THE TITLE.

THANK YOU!

[ryangepitulan]

my childhood didn't just come knocking on my door today... it broke it down to its very hinges goddamn this vid was a welcome surprise!

[aierune]

All I saw was the Thumbnail and my mind just went through a huge fucking flashback I had once thought forgotten. Warlords was THE GOAT of a flash game growing up.

[fitzify]

In either the second or third installment after winning 2 different campaings, or winning one and then with the demons, a new faction was unlocked. It was an Arnold Schwarzenneger terminator themed one. Does anyone remember? There was a T-1000 with a riot shiel and a baton, one with a machine gun, one flying similar to the T-1... and so on.
And as people here have state I often remember the cool flash games I played as a child/teenager, like Fantasy Kommander, 1917 and 1944 and 1066 (a stick game of the viking invasion of england), there were some really cool games... sadly all gone since flash stopped working.
I recently I remembered this game only I couldn't remember the name, so thanks for this video.
