Welcome to Ultimatum, a free fantasy-themed turn-based strategy game inspired from the game Battle for Wesnoth.
The game is currently in a periodic public testing phase. Ultimatum will be hosted publicly during the weekends during 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM EST. During that time, I will be updating the game to suit the players, so help support Ultimatum's development by joining.
Special thanks to Karnlor for creating the hub graphics.
An alternative skin for players running 1024x768 and find the Chat and Game Info box is too small has been made. The skin is still not compatible for any lower resolutions.
