Game Overview

Time of Defiance is an online-only massively multi-player strategy game in real-time set across the huge landscape of a shattered world. Fight for conquest of the islands and mine their mineral wealth to expand your empire. Every other empire you encounter is another human and will remember the deals you didnt deliver on and the promises you broke. Treachery, propaganda and trade are just as important as your fighting strategy. Have you got what it takes to unite the Cog tribes under one ruler? Your remote outposts in the north have detected enemy troop movement, but your closest fleet is over a days travel away. The enemy fleet is within striking range of a valuable resource mine that is key to your economic wealth and you dont have the forces to defend it. Your northern neighbour is friendly but wont help out against this enemy; the problems you are having with your neighbour in the south are tying up a lot of your ships.

Time of Defiance isn't all there right now, but it'll be interesting to see what Nicely Crafted Entertainment does with this promising game design in the coming months.

I spent hours tinkering with the game just to find all the options and explore them. It has a good design and good graphics.

It's certainly a very different MMO than what we've come to expect. It's also very stable, very balanced, very fast, and very addictive after the first 15 to 20 hours.
