Omnihedron Games releases Duty & Honour
By Dave McAlister • Sep 30th, 2008 • Category: Latest NewsDuty & Honour is now available. Designed by Neil Gow and illustrated by Peter Frain, Duty & Honour is a game of adventure and romance in Wellington’s army during the Peninsular War. Inspired by the adventures of Richard Sharpe and Matthew Hervey amongst others, you take the role of soldiers and officers, fighting their way across Portugal and Spain. Can you defeat the French Major who has sullied your honour? Will you succumb to the machinations of the wicked Sergeant? Will the heaving busom of Lady Haversham seduce you into betraying your brother? All these adventures and more are possible, with Duty & Honour.
The game features the Mission system which allows players to define their own objectives, set their own rewards and create meaningful relationships within the game. Missions, which can be military, personal or even romantic, shape the gameplay, the advancement of the characters and the direction of your campaign.
