New screenshots for English Civil War, featuring the Siege of Hull and the Battle of Edgehill!

The failed siege of Hull and the Battle of Edgehill represent the initial fights of the English Civil War.

Especially the latter, where its inconclusive outcome denied both factions the strategic advantage they needed to put an end to the war quickly.

In the upcoming wargame by AGEod and HQ set during the early years of the English Civil War, you will be able to relive these events - and many others – with an unmatched historical precision!

English Civil War Main Art Revealed!

The civil conflict that erupted in the British Isles in 1641 and lasted almost ten years, is, undoubtedly, one of the major turning points of British history.

Religious and political struggles are dividing the country, and the stakes are high! To whom will you swear your loyalty? To the King or to the Parliament?

Developers from HQ are proud to reveal the Main Art for The English Civil War, an upcoming wargame using the Ageod engine depicting this underrated conflict!

Ageod teams up with the Sealed Knot Society for the English Civil War!

 Ageod Games is very proud to announce a collaboration with the Sealed Knot Society – the largest re-enactment society in Europe – in support of the upcoming English Civil War game.

We truly appreciate their efforts in keeping alive the memory of this conflict and its heritage, and with their experience we hope to make the English Civil War game the most historically accurate wargame for PC about this fascinating setting.


“The Sealed Knot is the oldest re-enactment society in the UK, a registered educational charity, and the single biggest re-enactment society in Europe […] The aims of the Society are not to glorify war, but to honourthose that died in the many battles of the English Civil War, and to educate the public about those wars, and also about the lives and times of people in that period.” (From the Sealed Knot site) http://www.thesealedknot.org.uk/

"The development of this game will assist the Sealed Knot in its 50-year charitable obligation to educate the public in the importance of this period of British history. A period in which a nation was forged and the seeds of modern democracy were sown in this important period of British and world history. A period in which families were divided by their beliefs in how a nation should be forged and the percentage of lives lost per head of population in this conflict was greater than those of WW1." (Paul Eaglestone, Lord General, commanding the Army of Parliament in Sealed Knot re-enactments)
