A FreeToPlay CCG MMO RTS, created by the German game developer company Phenomic and published by EA. Released March 2009. Has four factions: Fire, Frost, Nature, and Shadow.
Basically, it's Magic the Gathering if it were an RTS. You get cards by buying Battleforge points (with real money). With Battleforge points, you can buy boosters in the ingame store, or bid/sell cards in the ingame auction house. Theoretically, it's possible to play the game completely for free by selling your initial cards and then slowly building up a massive fortune by trading on the auction house... but it's extremely slow since everyone else also has your initial starting cards. It becomes somewhat faster when valuable promotional cards are available through out-of-game events.

There are two things needed to use cards in the game: power, and orbs. Power is gained from capturing power wells spread across the map, which then give you a steady income of power. Orbs are gained by capturing amii monuments scattered across the map. A card may require one to four orbs to use, allowing for a great variety in decks (pure decks have access to unique cards that are only available to a certain faction alone, while splash decks are more flexible because they can play around with the strengths of each faction, at the cost of losing access to the faction-unique cards).
There are three types of cards in the game: units, spells, and buildings. You can play cards anywhere you have ground presence (where you have a unit, building, well, or monument in the vicinity), though some spells do not require ground presence. And the most interesting mechanic: power is conserved in the game, it never goes away. Whenever a unit/building dies, or when you cast a spell, the 10% of the power you spent is permanently lost, and the remaining 90% goes into a "void pool", where it slowly flows back into your usable power pool. This leads to fast paced game that steadily gets faster as more power from your wells flows into your power pools.

**--> '''Phalanx(frost)''', ''"Oh this is going to be interesting"''
**--> '''Storm Singer(frost)''', ''Daughters of the storm, STAND FIRM!!"''
**--> '''Silverwind Lancers(frost)''', ''"[[LargeHam HOLD THE LINE, NO TURNING BACK!!!]]"''

Added DiffLines:
* FactionCalculus: Each of the 4 main factions have their own unique ablities. [[ZergRush Fire has unit ablities or buildings that allow it to summon in units without daze]], [[DeflectorShields Frost has units/spells/buildings that give their units or friendlies ice shields]], [[HealingHands Nature has access to units/buildings/spells that heal units]], [[TakingYouWithMe Shadow has spells that sacrifice /burnout/buffs that make their units strong, but weakens/kills them afterwards also some of their abilities revolve around corpses yours or your enemy doesn't matter]].
* HeroicSpirit: Sort of, all the units you can summon ingame died in the past or are legends/myths brought to life by the forge.

* KnightInShiningArmour: The Lyrish Knight, for his dark counterpart see Dread Charger.
Added DiffLines:
* Stripperific: Some units are pretty skimpy on the clothing/armor, but it balances out that said units can't take many hits very well.
* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Small and medium units will give you a few variations when they come into contact with enemy XL units.

Added DiffLines:
* UnfriendlyFire: Shadow unit abilites and spells tend to hurt both friend and foe. Hopefully the latter more than the former.
* VictoryPose: Small or medium units start cheering when a enemy Large or XL dies. The variation changes depending on unit. Examples...
**--> '''Phalanx(frost)''', ''"The bigger they are..."''
**--> '''Silverwind Lancers(frost)''', ''"[[LargeHam WELL DONE, GENTLEMEN!!]]"''
**--> '''Frost Mage(frost)'', ''"Na NaNa Na Na Nah"''

A FreeToPlay CCG MMO RTS, created by the German game developer company Phenomic and published by EA. Released March 2009. Has four factions: Fire, Frost, Nature, and Shadow.
Basically, it's Magic the Gathering if it were an RTS. You get cards by buying Battleforge points (with real money). With Battleforge points, you can buy boosters in the ingame store, or bid/sell cards in the ingame auction house. Theoretically, it's possible to play the game completely for free by selling your initial cards and then slowly building up a massive fortune by trading on the auction house... but it's extremely slow since everyone else also has your initial starting cards. It becomes somewhat faster when valuable promotional cards are available through out-of-game events.
Also, you can upgrade your cards by playing [[PlayerVersusEnvironment PvE]] or PvP, increasing your card's stats in battle. Your units could have higher attack, higher health, new abilities, cost less power to summon, etc. This part of the game has nothing to do with Battleforge points, as you cannot trade or buy upgrades.
'''Gameplay'''
There are two things needed to use cards in the game: power, and orbs. Power is gained from capturing power wells spread across the map, which then give you a steady income of power. Orbs are gained by capturing amii monuments scattered across the map. A card may require one to four orbs to use, allowing for a great variety in decks (pure decks have access to unique cards that are only available to a certain faction alone, while splash decks are more flexible because they can play around with the strengths of each faction, at the cost of losing access to the faction-unique cards).
There are three types of cards in the game: units, spells, and buildings. You can play cards anywhere you have ground presence (where you have a unit, building, well, or monument in the vicinity), though some spells do not require ground presence. And the most interesting mechanic: power is conserved in the game, it never goes away. Whenever a unit/building dies, or when you cast a spell, the 10% of the power you spent is permanently lost, and the remaining 90% goes into a "void pool", where it slowly flows back into your usable power pool. This leads to fast paced game that steadily gets faster as more power from your wells flows into your power pools.
'''Factions'''
* '''[[color:red:Fire:]]''' (Aggressive) The fire faction focuses on direct damage spells, high attack units, [[KillItWithFire killing things with fire]], and destruction in general.
* '''[[color:blue:Frost:]]''' (Defensive) The frost faction features building defense spells, [[HumanPopsicle freezing spells]], shield spells, [[MightyGlacier high health units, slow units]], and protection in general.
* '''[[color:green:Nature:]]''' (Control) The nature faction has lots of crowd control spells, healing spells, and disabling spells, along with many beast/forestkin units.
* '''[[color:purple:Shadow:]]''' (Risk) The shadow faction has units that [[TheBerserker frenzy before they die]], damage spells that hurt their own units, buff spells, and power manipulation cards.
'''Splash Factions'''
As expansions have been released, new factions have joined the standard lineup. They consist of two-orb combinations.
* Renegade Expansion
** '''[[color:orange:Bandits:]]''' Fire/Shadow faction, special ability: Life Stealing.
** '''[[color:cyan:Stonekin:]]''' Nature/Frost faction, special ability: Damage Reduction.
* Lost Souls Expansion
** '''[[color:yellow:Twilight:]]''' Fire/Nature faction, special ability: Transformation.
** '''[[color:navy:Lost Souls:]]''' Shadow/Frost faction, special ability: Revenant's Doom.

!!This game provides examples of:
* ActionGirl: All female units basically.
* BalefulPolymorph: The spell Curse of Oink is a staple in every Nature splash deck because it turns all enemies in a radius into useless pigs.
* BladeOnAStick: Frost imperials/phalanx and nature spearman and ghost spears come to mind.
* BloodMagic: The Shadow spell Blood Healing is one of the most powerful in the game, but almost certainly causes the unit you cast it on to die in exchange for healing all the units around it. Many shadow units like the Shadow Mage and Cultist Master use their own life points to fuel their attacks or abilities.
* ChurchMilitant: Gun Cultists worship their rifles and weapons, with quotes such as "[[FullMetalJacket Full. Metal. Jacket.]]" and "[[MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail Thou shalt count to three.]]"
* DarkIsNotEvil: While the element itself was created by the Original Sin (tm), Shadow is also the essence of [[TheDeterminator preservation]] and [[HeroicSacrifice self-sacrifice]]. The Lost Souls are an even better example, as they, [[TheUndead realizing they weren't going to shuffle off the mortal coil anytime soon]], decided to make the best of it and assist the Skylords.
** Shadow faction also does this to a lesser, if abit more iffy degree.
* TheDeterminator: Captain Blight
* GentleGiant: Mo, the White Juggernaut
* GodsNeedPrayerBadly: Without the faith of the mortals, Brannoc is weakened and killed by the avenging Skylords. All Gods, Skylords, and creations of the Forge exist because of the belief of the mortals.
* {{Gotterdammerung}}: The Gods fall to the Twilight Curse, and it is up to the Skylords to protect the mortal races
* IceQueen: The Frost Sorceress is an early Frost Deck unit, AnIcePerson like most frost units, but her quotes come off like a Jerkass
* LoveMakesYouEvil: Brannoc betrays the Gods because he thought they were holding back the secret of creation from him, and without it he couldn't bring back his dead wife.
* NorseMythology: Some influence, probably due to the game being developed in Germany. The cruel giants ruled the mortal races with an iron fist before the gods came and drove the giants underground. Subverted in the end because the gods all die, while the giants befriend the mortals in the face of the TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt
* OffingTheOffspring: Brannoc kills his own daughter, Viridya
* PowerOfTheVoid: The Lost Souls invoke this, [[DarkIsNotEvil although most are pretty nice]].
* ThePrecursors: The Amii, creators of the monuments.
* TheReveal
** The Forge cannot create, only copy the legends and dreams of mortals. So all the Gods and Skylords are just creations of the Forge, and the original heroes who inspired the Skylords are long dead
** Brannoc was the pawn of the Harbinger of Souls, who created the Twilight Curse to [[ResetButton end all life]] so the lost souls could be free from their torment in the land of the dead.
** The Forge was created by the Assemblers, an empire of dimension-hopping steampunk AI machines who trade mortals the ability to make dreams reality in return for access to a peaceful afterlife (the machines, although powerful, do not have an afterlife). The mortals get the short stick, because they get trapped in torment forever after they die.
* ShoutOut: They pretty much completely ripped off MobyDick for the Renegade expansion
* TheTimeOfMyths: Throughout the game you're summoning legendary creatures.
* TotalEclipseOfThePlot: In the Twilight campaign, the sun is eclipsed for two years, and the mortal races are forced into the giant caves for warmth. After reaching a bargain with the giants, the giants make a new sun and throw it into the sky in exchange for enormous wealth.
* TheUndead: Lost Souls
* TheVirus: The Twilight Cursed
* ZergRush: You can technically use masses of T1 and T2 units, but later on against larger enemies they will just get sent flying.
