Little Magic

The Sun Prince leads an army after a wizard seizes the neighboring kingdom. Capturing a castle or defeating the enemy leader can settle a tactical stage.

Close encounters switch from turn-based movement to direct fighting. Towns, churches, and deployment circles give the map more to offer than a short route toward the enemy.
