With a horde of specialized goblin warriors at your command, you can wage war in single-player and multiplayer modes.

You can even take direct control of giant titans, powerful turrets, and battle-ready vehicles to cause reckless mayhem across the lands.

Problems

Hang

Game will eventually hang when using Dual Core mode. Refer issue 7143. Single core mode is default since 5.0-11217.

Enhancements

Anti-aliasing/Texture-Filtering Causes Gaps in Images

With certain enhancement options, tiles that make up larger images have their edge pixels rendered on the opposite side. This can be seen in the opening publisher logo and title image. Enabling Force Texture Filtering causes this in both the OpenGL and DirectX back-ends. Enabling any of the anti-aliasing options also results in this issue with the DirectX back-end. Refer issue 6967.
