In Border Conqueror, you assume the role of Captain Fetorem, the fearless commander of the elite Second Legion, “Winner” Fetorem, of the Norman Empire. Tasked with defending the empire’s volatile western frontier in the province of Cerrado, you will navigate a world of political intrigue, rebellion, and conquest. After the fall of Keter and the resulting division of the western continent, the Duchies of Sarich and Krosa became battlegrounds for power. Following the collapse of the old regime, Sulipanaxa emerged as the victor in Sarich, but tensions in the region remained high.
The Cesteners, long resentful of the Norman rule, are on the brink of rebellion, and Keter's exiles, driven by the loss of their homeland, have rallied to their cause. Amidst this turmoil, the 13th Legion, “Griffin,” has turned its back on the empire, declaring their own rebellion. As the captain of the most formidable legion in the empire, you must quell the insurrection, manage newly conquered territories, suppress resistance, and strategically influence the political landscape. Your choices will shape the destiny of the empire as you wage battles, forge alliances, and confront the challenges that lie at the heart of the empire's survival.
