Rise & Fall: Civilisations at War

I saw this hybrid which is both a real time strategy (RTS) game and a first person shooter (FPS) though in this case, they use swords.

I am intrigued. This appears similar in concept to an earlier title, Joan of Arc, which wasn't successful. It does not appear that this game is taking the scene by storm. Heh. I will have to see.

The earliest games that employed this concept appears to be Battlezone and Battlezone 2 which were critically acclaimed but were absolutely dismal in sales.
