Legions: Way of War

Connecting squads correctly is the whole game in Legions: Way of War, and it turns out that's a surprisingly satisfying thing to get right. Line your troops up the smart way and watch them click together like they were always meant to fight side by side.

Underneath that puzzle-ish hook is a proper real-time strategy game. You're building an army out of archers, cavalry, infantry, artillery and Heroes, then working out which combination actually holds a line or breaks one. Positioning matters as much as raw numbers here - a well-placed squad of archers can undo a much bigger charge if you've read the fight right.

There's a run of tests to work through, each one asking a bit more of your tactical brain than the last. It's the kind of Tactical Games setup where you're rewarded for thinking a move ahead, not just clicking fast. Fans of Rts Games will feel right at home.

Best part: it's a Unity Games Online games title that runs straight in your browser, free, on desktop or Android, no download standing between you and your first battle.

Arrange and connect your squads correctly to win each battle. Build up your army by unlocking new troop types - archers, cavalry, infantry, artillery and Heroes - and use them to work through a series of tests.

Position your units deliberately rather than just throwing them forward; connecting squads the right way is what actually wins fights here. Lean on your Heroes at key moments, and treat each test as a chance to refine how you combine troop types before the next one gets tougher.
