As you can see after War of the Roses, there is a new contender to Mount and Blade 1-2. The game is currently in alpha stage so it is a bit early to talk about it, but it shows some good points, first as you can see from the gif there is some average gore, for the moment only beheading, no arms, legs or limbs but who knows.. they could implement a fully gore, also the game is powered by the Unreal engine 3 which means better visuals compared to M&B, then it is told that the game will be 16 vs 16 battle, which is little compared to 220 of M&B, as far as i can see there is no horse, no mounted combat, which was one of the best thing that i liked in M&B. The melee combat system i think from what i saw it s more easy compared to M&B, hopefully the game will be playable on third persons view rather than just first person, coz while it works for archers, sword fighting is better in third person view in my opinion. Last but not least it is also worth mentioning that the game is made by the same developers who made Age of Chivalry, which was a mod for Half life 2.
A nice strategy broswer game from Aeriagames.

* There are many more things to do in the game world: diplomacy, trade, hunting, geology, looting and even special zones for free-for-all PVP.
Knights of War – A game by Vedran Drazeta
Knights of War is a turn-based strategy game set in medieval England. It was influenced by simillar games like Warlords, Shogun Total War and Heroes of Might and Magic. Player can choose between eight lords to play with, each having different bonuses. The main objective of the game is to capture all England’s provincies by defeating all of your enemies and therefore to unite all England under your rule. To do this, you will have to develop your economy, build structures, improve technologies, conduct diplomacy and raise strong armies. There are three AI types to choose for your computer opponents. Knight is the weakest AI type, warlord the strongest while lord is somewhere in between those two. There is also hotseat mode which allows two or more players to play on the same device by taking turns playing the game.
