Squares And Blades II brings you more excellent tactical battles on an abstracted chessboard battlefield. Each battle is now a scenario in the story, where you pick a couple of units from your team to add to the preset ones for the battle. Win and you get to proceed onto the next set – but if your core characters die you can't use them again. It's an improved system over the first game where it wasn't clear when you were losing vital units and sometimes had to restart the whole game if you got into bad shape. Overall, an improvement on an excellent tactical game.
