Kohan II: Kings of War represents the most fascinating and successful game of its time that managed to combine RTS games with a new level of troop creation and organization and with a well-structured fantasy world and an unforgettable story.

The best words from me for this game would be: - A timeless gem that defined my childhood -

Kohan II: Kings of War is, without a doubt, my all-time favorite strategy game. Over time, I have discovered many fascinating and successful game titles that have caught my attention and I have spent many hours in them, but in terms of RTS games, this game will forever remain the best game in my heart. This game opened my heart since I was just a kid who wanted to waste some time playing on the computer and showed me how successful and fascinating games can become when you have a well-structured story that can captivate you and make you want more. ( nothing has ever come close to the magic and depth this game gave me — not just as a player, but as a kid discovering a world of fantasy, strategy, and emotion for the first time - I will always carry a deep love for it )

The gameplay is unlike anything else. While it’s a real-time strategy game at its core, it sets itself apart with unit company systems, automatic formations, and a brilliant macro-level economic structure that values long-term planning over frantic micromanagement.

For me, the story that unfolds in the series of three Kohan games makes me return to periods of time and want to relive and replay the fantastic experience offered by the story and events that took place in the games.

The structured story of the games itself would be the following: ( briefly explained ) - Kohan Warchest

1. In Kohan: Immortal Sovereigns:
The saga begins with the reawakening of the Kohan, an immortal race cursed with amnesia upon every resurrection. You take the role of a newly awakened Kohan, learning of a world torn by war and shadow. The enemy? The Ceyah, corrupted Kohan who serve a darker force — Ahriman, a being of pure chaos seeking to unravel the world’s balance.

2. In Kohan: Ahriman’s Gift:
This standalone expansion dives deeper, showing the fall of the Ceyah and their descent into darkness. You play from their perspective and see how blind loyalty, fear, and ambition corrupted them. Ahriman’s influence grows, and his gift becomes a curse that poisons the land and all who follow him.

3. In Kohan II: Kings of War:
Set generations later, the world of Khaldun is weary. The Ceyah are thought defeated, but a new threat arises — The Fallen, Ahriman’s agents reborn. Kohan must rise again to defend the world, but their numbers are fewer, and the stakes are higher.
The campaign tells a tale of unity through adversity, of ancient rivalries put aside in the face of annihilation. It brings the full arc of the series to a dramatic close — from the confusion of immortality, to the fall into shadow, to the final stand for the world’s soul.

The Kohan series tells a complete story: from confusion and rebirth (Immortal Sovereigns), to fall and corruption (Ahriman's Gift), and finally to the reunion and last hope of the world (Kings of War).

Yes, the game no longer has multiplayer or support and you may encounter bugs and problems that are not going to be solved or finalized, but these are small and there are certain mods made by the community to make the game run in a stable and enjoyable way and if you don't want to introduce any mods to help the game run better, at least I haven't encountered any major problems except when I put the game in the bar to check something there is a chance that it will crash and restart so basically the mission I was playing was going to be started from the beginning.

In conclusion, for anyone who entered this world of games a long time ago, when everything was not based on advanced graphics or looked as if each character was exactly a real-life person, they should give this game (the entire Kohan series of games) a chance and live an old, but extremely well-made and structured gaming experience!
Kohan II may not be well-known today, but for those who’ve played it — it’s unforgettable. I only wish more people could experience what this series offered.

For me, it will always remain a timeless gem, one that shaped my love for strategy and storytelling forever. ( every time I feel the need for an old RTS game, this game will be the first one I will return to and I will be able to play it with the greatest pleasure ) - and the child in me still lives with a hope that after the final words of this game ("We'll meet again... old friend!") a sequel or a revival of this masterpiece will appear one day!
