TeleEpic II

TeleEpic II is a video game in the strategy genre developed by Scott Lamb Inc. and published by Software Terminal originally released in 1990. It is currently playable on Amiga.

Based on the same engine as TeleWar, TeleEpic II is a two-player medieval strategy game intended to be played by modem, alternatively by null modem or turn-based on a single computer.

In split-screen mode, the upper half of the screen features low-resolution scrolling graphics, while the lower half contains a high-resolution user interface and chatlog. The game is controlled entirely with the mouse, moving from man to man and aiming at your target, choosing weapon and direction of attack with the buttons on the lower half of the screen.

Your army consists of a dozen men, all armed with throwing daggers, throwing axes, a bow and arrows and a sword for melee combat. Each man has a unique number of life points and 'stride' (movement points). To regenerate, he can be instructed to rest or heal for one turn. Combat can be conducted in eight directions, which requires careful positioning of your units and choosing a weapon with the correct range. Ranged weapons, such as arrows or throwing axes, can only be used while stocks last.

The game ends once the enemy army is destroyed, or if the flag is captured. Three scenarios with different maps and terrain features have been incorporated: a battle in an open landscape with two fortresses, an open arena and a park maze. Games can be saved and replayed later, or transferred by modem to other users.

Although a TeleEpic III is advertised on the loading screen, it was never released. However, the TeleEpic series was developed in Medieval Warriors.

It is possible that we have multiple downloads available when different versions exist.
