The map is your battlefield. Every border is a decision.

Palisade is a fast real-time territorial strategy game. Found a capital, claim room to grow, link your holdings with roads, and commit troops where the frontier can support them. There are no squads to micromanage. Issue expansion, attack, and construction orders directly on the land.

Build Settlements, Markets, and Castles. Draw Palisades, launch Cavalry Charges, and plot Naval Landings across historical geography. Watch major and petty realms compete for the same ground, then break a rival by capturing its capital.

This web version includes the complete Northern Saga: three linked battles that introduce expansion, realm-building, cavalry, naval landings, fortifications, and campaign legacy choices. Reached scenarios stay available in Practice.
