What is Dragon Empires?

In Dragon Empires you group with friends into clans and compete for the ownership of the 50 cities scattered throughout the world. As you grow your empire you tax the cities you own, foster trade and a strong economy and keep would-be rivals from challenging your position. With luck player-merchants will flock to you and make you rich.

But be careful! Should you fail to win support for your city and to appease the Dragon in the empire you dwell you will find your city becoming unstable and ripe for conquest. Other clans will be lining up to challenge your ownership, wanting a piece of the wealth themselves.

Perhaps the battle for cities doesn't interest you as much as combat itself. If this is the case, head off into the wilderness and hunt monsters, or even the outlaws who prey on traders and stragglers. Or be an outlaw yourself and strike fear into the hearts of all you meet!

If making money is most important the life of a trader and merchant may be the road for you. Using Dragon Empire's skill system, build your mercantile skills and start production of your goods. Even while you are offline or asleep your factory will produce goods to be sold in the city's marketplace, providing your factory can purchase the resources.

Of course, traders will need to move valuable resources to the cities where production is heavy. The flow of supply and demand results in a constantly changing economy and new trade routes to seek your fortune on!

Dragon Empires combines a state of the art graphics engines with detailed gameplay to provide an involving and extremely interactive game experience. Players can chose to trade goods, manufacture items, fight monsters, each other or other clans. Will you be a devious merchant, struggling for economic dominance, or will you be a bounty hunter, removing the threat of evil from the land. Or perhaps you will simply make a living trading goods between cities. These are some of the choices you are free to make!

Dragon Empires is packed with features:
- Player-controlled towns and cities.
- Engaging political system based around supporting friendly clans and undermining your enemies.
- Detailed economic model where prices (and profits) fluctuate according to player actions.
- Full clan system including message boards, ranks, titles and crests.
- Skill-based character progression allowing infinite customisation and the ability to change career paths.
- Expansive manufacturing system with automation taking the drudgery out of making goods.
- The ability to enchant or enhance player-made items.
- Private housing and clan buildings that you and your friends can enjoy, decorate and duel in.
- Full weather model over gorgeous terrain resulting in tropical rainstorms, lightning, thunder, wind and snow.

Screenshots:


The game is run by two seperate engines, the one you see in these screenshots is the Landscape engine, the other is for all the characters, monsters and items... the NetImmerse engine as seen in DAoC and Morrowind.

For more info about the game check out the Dragon Empires website.

Your a pretty annoying person khwiii...and of course there's free games online too but good luck getting very quick ingame/email customer support and new patches quite often.

*Edit*
This is why I find you annoying. You think you know the people on these boards when you acutally don't. Me and KR argue about paying for servers all the time, but we're just messing around. There's no need for your thanks captain obvious remark.

I can accept you feeling this way about me. But also note that you have tendencies to try and throw one-liners in all the time too. No big loss if you don't like me. I don't really need anyone here to like me.

The exact words I said were. " i don't reallyy NEED anyone to like me" You on the other just try and make little smart remarks to been seen. Well ... You don't like it so well when someone throws it back at you. If you would quit trying to be the "cool" guy... maybe then you would be the "cool guy".

Sorry maybe I'm confused, but is this not a little smart remark made by you? You're the one that started this little thing khwiii. You could've just left out that whole phrase and said, "But there are games you can play online without paying." and that would've been fine. I think the only one trying to be the "cool guy" here is you.
