A royal RTS bundle!
Celtic Kings: Rage of War & Tzar: The Burden of the Crown, a pair of elaborate and masterfully executed real-time strategy games driving their inspiration from historical events with an occasional splash of fantasy, is avaliable bundled 70% off on GOG.com. That's only $3.59 for the set of two excellent games for the next 24 hours!
Many people imagine the life of the monarchs to be simple and blissful. There's no higher authority, so there's no one to tell them what to do. They can decide to spend their days feasting, dancing, hunting, and pursuing other frivolous activities. The thing they don't understand is the weight of the crown. Not the actual weight--that's quite bearable, even though many rulers would much prefer a simple felt hat, then a layered construct of fine gold and jewel stones--they weigh no less than regular stones, mind you. The metaphorical weight is far greater. The burden of the crown is the burden of the ages. As it rests on one's head, so does the whole history of a nation: the past, the present, and the future. To tell you the truth, the latter feels the heaviest, today. Excuse your lord this moment of chatter, fieldmarshal. The battle is upon us, let gods make it the last one.
Tzar: The Burden of the Crown offers the best in real-time strategy gameplay with a believable setting and nice sense of scale, and just a splash of fantasy. The three factions available in the game--Europeans, Asians, and Arabs--differ greatly from one another in terms of gameplay style and available facilities. The main campaign spanning across twenty scenarios grants many hours of challenge and excitement. When it ends the game provides an infinite number of randomly-generated maps, and a solid multi-player mode. Celtic Kings: Rage of War is a great mixture of two genres - adventure and real-time strategy. In strategic mode, you play as either the Romans or the Gauls in a world where tactical and strategic maneuvers are the key to victory. In adventure mode you take on the role of Larax and the battle the warring tribes who have raided your village and killed your wife.

The special Gem Promo 70% off discount lasts until Tuesday, June 10, at 9:59AM GMT. Games also available separately, for $2.39 each. Games already owned count towards the higher discount rate.
