Emperor of the Fading Suns demo

In 4550 A.D., Vladimir I crowned himself emperor but died within moments; the commonwealth of humanity was shattered. For 400 years, civilization existed in darkness, ruled by ignorance and fear. The fading suns were said to be a portent of the coming doom. Humanity needs strong, dedicated leaders for the uncertain future. You are one of these leaders--the head of an ancient royal house. Should you succeed both on the field of battle and in the halls of diplomacy, you can convince the other houses to elect you regent. From there, you may set your path for the throne. Players control one of five noble houses, each trying to command enough votes to be crowned emperor. Players must deal with complex politics as different factions try to force their own agenda and gain favor with the more powerful noble houses.
