🌍️ Wikipedia:

Chivalry: Medieval Warfare is a multiplayer-focused action game developed by Torn Banner Studios as their first commercial title. The game is set in a fictional world resembling the Middle Ages and offers similar gameplay combat to the developer's previously released Half-Life 2 mod, Age of Chivalry. On September 20, 2012, a trailer was released which set the release date to October 16, 2012. The developers had confirmed that the game would be PC exclusive initially, but in October 2014, they confirmed that the game would be coming to PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in December 2014. An expansion pack called Chivalry: Deadliest Warrior was announced on August 23, 2013 as a tie-in for the television series Deadliest Warrior. It was released on November 14, 2013.

Gameplay

Chivalry has similar gameplay mechanics to Age of Chivalry, a Half-Life 2 mod created by the same developer, Torn Banner Studios. Combat is primarily melee, carried out from either a first person or third person perspective using medieval implements of war: swords, maces, longbows, and other weaponry of the time are used to hack, smash, and rain arrows down upon enemies. The game also features ballistae, catapults, and boiling oil to use on enemies and their fortifications. Online matches are affected through objective-based gameplay, such as breaching a castle gate with a battering ram or looting a foe's camp. While the game does not have a single-player campaign, there are plans to create an offline mode in the future.

In the game, the fictional nation of Agatha is in a civil war, with two factions – the Agathian Knights and the Mason Order – vying for control of the region. Players pick their sides and choose from four character classes, each with a different set of skills and choice of weaponry.

The game also features an extreme gore system, where the player can completely crush the head of a person with blunt weapons such as the Mace, behead or/and dismember them with a variety of swords and axes as well as shoot right into the neck with a crossbow.

Game modes

Chivalry: Medieval Warfare features a number of game modes. The main game modes are:

• Free For All Every player fights only for himself. The player with most score when the time runs out is declared the winner.

• Duel Players fight in a tournament and compete in 1v1 matches. When the player is dueling with another player, the other players are having their own duels at the same time. The player who has the most victories in the end wins.

• Team Deathmatch Two teams fight against each. Both teams have the same amount of resources at the beginning of a game. The game ends when other team loses all their resources and the remaining players on the battlefield are killed.

• Last Team Standing Two teams fight in an arena and each player has only one life. The arena features environmental hazards like wall spikes. The team with players still alive at the end wins a round.

• King of the Hill Two teams try to hold an area in the middle of the map. First team to hold the area for a certain amount of time wins.

• Capture the Flag Both teams have to capture a flag from enemy base and bring it back to their base, while defending their own flag. First team to reach 3 captures wins.

• Team Objective Players play in either the attacking team or defending team. The attacking team must complete various objectives like pillaging a village, pushing a battering ram to the enemy gates and killing the king while the defending team must stop them.

Classes

Player can choose one of four playable classes. The four classes are the same for both Agatha Knights and Mason Order, the only difference being the color and style of their armor.

• Archer
Archers use weapons like bows and javelins to attack from afar. Archers also have shortswords or daggers for close combat. Archer has barely any armor and should only draw his blade when necessary.

• Man-at-Arms
Man-at-Arms is the most nimble of all classes. He uses one-handed weapons, like swords and maces, and can use a shield for more effective blocking. His armor is the weakest of the three melee focused classes, but his greatest defense is his speed, as he can perform dodges.

• Vanguard
Vanguards use long weapons, like Polearms and Greatswords, and prefer to stay a bit farther from the enemy. After sprinting for a while, he can perform a deadly sprint attack that does massive damage and heavily unbalances the enemy if the attack is blocked. Vanguards are unique in the fact that they are the only class to not use shields.

• Knight
Knight is the heaviest of all classes. He prefers to use large, two-handed weapons, such as the longsword and battleaxe. He can also use bigger shields than the other classes. He is however the slowest class, as he moves very slowly and his attacks leave him open for longer periods of time than other classes.

Primary Weapons

The four different classes use weapons mostly faithful to their medieval counterparts.

• Archer
Archers use ranged weaponry like longbows, shortbows, warbows, crossbows, light crossbows, heavy crossbows, javelins, short spears, heavy javelins, and slings.

• Man-at-Arms
The light, nimble Man-at-Arms uses mostly one handed weaponry such as broadswords, Norse swords, falchions, hatchets, war axes, dane axes, flanged axes, morning stars, quarter staffs, and holy water sprinklers.

• Vanguard
These heavily armed warriors use two-handed weapons with a long reach and utilize greatswords, claymores, zweihanders, thrusting spears, forks, brandistocks, bardiches, billhooks, halberds, and pole hammers.

• Knight
The heaviest class in the game uses the strongest weapons which hit slow and hard.
