Let's Play Herzog (MSX) #1 | Vaxan and Colna
12Herzog is a strategy video game released by TechnoSoft in Japan for the MSX, PC-88, PC-98, and Sharp X1 computers in 1988. It is a real-time tactics and tactical shooter game with real-time strategy elements.
The game served as the prototype for its sequel Herzog Zwei, which was released in 1989 for the Sega Mega Drive and is often considered the first true real-time strategy game.
The game is centred around a fictional war between the countries of Mercies and Ruth. Ten years ago, the president of Mercies was assassinated by a terrorist organisation known as the Ruth Liberation Army.
War broke and out and quickly escalated, with major powers intervening on both sides. Now, after ten years of conflict, the war is drawing to a close.
Gameplay takes place among nine battlegrounds, beginning at the capital of Mercies, Vaxan. Each victory for the player brings the player's army to the next battleground and closer to Remerje, the capital of Ruth.
The game ends when either the player is defeated at Vaxan, or the computer controlled army is defeated at Remerje. The game will also end if the player loses the last Land-Armor in stock.
If the player loses at a battleground other than Vaxan, the player will move backwards and complete the previous stage again.
