Great Invasions (The Dark Ages 350-1066 AD) is a real-time strategy computer game. The game portrays the Dark Ages, starting in 350 with the death of the Roman Emperor Constans and ending in 1066. The player can control up to ten nations simultaneously, and is given control of diplomacy, war, finances, administration, religion, building structures and training and managing armies and fleets.
Great Invasions is designed to simulate and expand on the relevant historical events and occurrences of the depicted period. The player is given freedom to act as he sees fit, but the developers encourage you to play in historically accurate manner in order to be able to experience the timeframe in its full flavour.
The game is built upon a controversial system of controlling more than one nation at the same time thus presenting the player with a unique gaming environment. The developers state that long inactivity in specific nations' histories was the main decision for this.
