Sword of the New World – Granado Espada Description:

Developed by IMC Games for Windows.

SYNOPSIS

Sword of the New World, also known as Granado Espada, stands as one of the few truly innovative MMORPGs merging traditional MMORPG elements with an RTS themed movement and micro-management system. Players take control of up to three separate characters at the same time while navigating the magnificent looking, and sounding world of Orpesia.

MULTI CHARACTER CONTROL

Sword of the New World gives players more options, variety, entertainment and challenges than any other MMORPG can by virtue of its unique design features. With multi-character control (MCC), players are able to command up to three characters simultaneously. No longer limited to playing one character at a time, players can instantly switch between their favorite character classes or control them all at once. Each one of those character classes – musketeer, wizard, fighter, scout, elementalist, and the unique player characters (UPCs) – acquires, over time, an impressive set of combat stances. Each stance offers unique skills, abilities and equipment options, making every class as powerful as it is versatile. With an entire family of such characters to develop, players will finally get to experience the sort of MMORPG gameplay they have been craving for years.

MODES TO CONTROL THE PARTY

Defend; Characters attack (and chase) any mobs who get close to them. (Healers auto-heal teammates.)

Hold; Similar to defend, but characters don’t move.

Harvest; Characters pick up all items and loot while moving to a selected location.

Assault; Characters fight all opponents (resp. heal) while moving to a selected location.

DUELING AND TEAM PVP

Granado Espada has a Dueling System by which a player may issue a challenge to another player’s team. Both teams then enter a combat arena separate from the rest of the actual game world to do battle. This feature is available by clicking on the other family’s name for a duel and also available at PvP officers in the Major cities (Reboldoeux, Coimbra, Auch) where four types of battles are available.

BARRACK SYSTEM

All characters are assumed to be from the same family. They all share the same family surname that is used to identify a player in game.

Characters are generated and maintained within a Barracks System. It allows players to see all of their active characters, and use the “Dress Room” to create new characters if space permits.

The barracks may hold up to nine characters. Each country’s version of Granado Espada provides a different number of initial starting slots with a new account.
