Set in the medieval Low Countries, Voor De Kroon combines a conquest campaign with large battles. Its first native campaign follows the Friso-Hollandic Wars, with players fighting as Floris V or the Frisians.
On the campaign map, players attack settlements and manage their forces. In battles, they can issue formation orders from an RTS-style view or take part directly in third person, including during field battles and sieges.
The Warforge editors let players create units, factions, castles, and campaigns, then share or play custom content through the Steam Workshop. The game also includes melee tournaments and a bird's-eye view of battles.
Positive reviews often praise the mix of directing an army and fighting on the front line, along with the gritty, cinematic battles and historically grounded equipment. Players also frequently enjoy the editors and Workshop content, which let them create or try custom factions, units, castles, and campaigns. Criticism commonly focuses on clunky combat and orders, limited campaign systems, and balance or polish problems; experiences vary across the supplied reviews.

Voor de kroon is a medieval wargame.
Get ready for immersive historical battles
Pull back to the RTS camera to maneuver your formations, time your charges and hold your lines. Then drop into third person and fight in the mud alongside your men while the battle decides itself.
Grounded in real medieval warfare
All arms and armor are drawn from contemporary sources. Helmets, mail and plate, weapons and equipment all belong to the era they represent and are modeled after manuscript and effigy references.
Build anything with the Warforge editor
The editors ship inside the game ready to use the moment you launch it. Create units, factions, castles and entire campaigns as easily as laying out a level, then share them on the Steam Workshop or play what the community has already made.
The Friso-Hollandic Wars campaign
Voor de Kroon's first native campaign is a full historical conquest set in the 13th-century Low Countries. Fight as Floris V to avenge your father's death against the Frisians or play the Frisians in their struggle to survive against the feudal lords. It's the first of more official campaigns to come.
