Lords of Conquest for the Commodore 64, 128, and MAX is a premier strategy title that successfully digitized the complex mechanics of the board game Borderlands. As one of Electronic Arts' top-selling games of 1986, it was famously marketed as "Better than Risk!", offering deep territorial strategy without the manual bookkeeping of tabletop alternatives. Players manage diverse units—including infantry, cavalry, and a water fleet—while securing vital resources like gold and iron. The game features an impressive map editor and nineteen predefined scenarios, alongside procedural generation for infinite variety. For collectors, this title is a must-have as a recipient of GameSpy's "Gotcha" award, representing the golden age of Commodore strategy. Its adjustable luck settings and four skill levels provide a tailored challenge, making it a sophisticated example of how the C64 platform could master high-level simulation and power-gaming.
