Aloriah: Coverage Started

I started playing Aloriah a few weeks back. It is more on the side as my main game is currently Lord of Ultima. It is of a lot smaller scale then Lord of Ultima, so the amount of time for empire maintenance is tremendously less. Thus, it should not detract me from Lord of Ultima much. It is a lot more fun then "grindy". The game seems to be designed to not take a lot of time, but I can see the benefits of checking in a lot, as you can direct your armies better. What I like about it is that it has the concept of game rounds/scenarios which last a few months then reset, so things do not get stale. For the long term, achievement points (and their benefits) carry onto the next game round/scenario.

As best described by the creators of the game:

"Aloriah is a free online web browser game based on mythologies of our time.

• Play for free directly online through your internet browser

I play (as Guzzer) on the Midgard server. At present, I am just playing solo whilst I learn to play properly. However, amidst all the stumbling around, I have managed to be currently ranked at #10 out of 1477 players, so I am pretty happy with that.
