excellent strategy wargame, will appeal to
all who've played warsong.
the storyline involves the adventure of Elwin
a young prince (who
doesn't
know it at first) and his friend Hein the
magician apprentice.. Riana
(Hein's friend) is kidnapped and the story
starts from there...
imo the PC-FX / SFC remake of it is better
(Der Langrisser)...
made in 1995 by NCS/Masaya.
Der Langrisser is the remake of lungrisser
2. The main differences are
remade gfx+music, ability to create your character
(class), and
branching storyline (you can choose to align
yourself 4 different
ways... lungrisser 2 limits you to only "light"
army alignment.)
There are some who prefer the music in lungrisser
2 to Der Langrisser
for some reason though... Also, i think the
"summon" option is only
availabie in Der Langrisser but i'm not sure
about that..
Der Langrisser has the branching storylines
which make for a total
of 70+ scenarios (much more than lungrisser2)...
but many of the
scenarios are repeated, it's just that you
are playing on the oppisite
side (light vs dark, dark vs light, etc.)
A few people (including myself) are working
on translating the SFC
version of Der Langrisser... if you are interested
here's a link

Vixen 357 looks to be interesting too, since
it is the same idea
of the langrisser series but futuristic..
i personally haven't
played it yet though.
Also, Lungrisser 1 could also be considered
because some storyline
of Warsong was changed from the original Lungrisser..
