“Battleforge” is a lost game. Phenomic was responsible for the development, combining the genre of real-time strategy with trading cards and a board game.

The game principle
You played troops in “Battleforge” in the form of trading cards. The deck of cards consisted of 16 cards that you put together before the game began. It was important that your own units or buildings were nearby to play the cards. The cards recharged as the time passed. Charged cards are played as new troop cards. There was also a limit to the units.
The playing cards
In the beginning the game brought a lot of information to the player. In total, “Battleforge” had a playing card contingent of 200 cards. The cards have been divided into different elements, such as fire, frost, shadow and nature. Each element has been assigned a color, such as red, blue, purple and green. These included 50 troop, building and magic cards that contained attack or protection spells. The combination options were flexible, as you were not restricted in using the cards. There were also upgrade cards.
Attacks and Defense
Energy costs limited the playing of the cards. You needed monuments, the number of which were determined before the game. Different types of missions were available, such as repelling attacks or sieges. The buildings were erected immediately after the card was played and opened fire. For defensive walls there were foundations on the map, on which you could erect the buildings immediately. The Battleforge game was geared towards multiplayer games. Nevertheless, there was the possibility of solo campaigns, but these were only very brief.
If missions were won, there were additional cards. 31 scenarios were available for different levels of difficulty. The Battleforge game didn’t allow you to pause or save. The graphics were fantastic, as were the animations.
The end
The game „BattleForge“ was discontinued on October 31, 2013. In 2015 it was announced that a team of three wanted to revive the game and that the game should be financed through donations. So far nothing has happened in this regard.
I recently found out that on BattleForge Reborn was updated until August 2017. Will there still be some rain?
The developers of „Skylords Reborn“ are in negotiations with Electronic Arts. The company wants to allow the developers to publish the game under the new name.
