You can play a beginner or advanced Tutorial as the Men of the West. Choose either the Dwarves or Goblins against a computer A.I. opponent whose difficulty you control. Mirror matches—Goblins vs. Goblins or Dwarves vs. Dwarves—are also available on easy, medium, hard, and brutal settings.

The demo features two maps for you to explore:

Withered Heath
Withered Heath is a wide open snowy map that pits you in the middle of many epic battles. Beware, it also has surrounding mountains and caverns, perfect for strategic sneak attacks.

Harlindon
The map Harlindon is half-filled with a beautiful sprawling ocean meant to utilize the new naval combat, but you can also use this to your advantage to launch attacks from the sea to land.

The free demo available to both Silver and Gold members of Xbox Live®. As long as you have a broadband connection to the service, you can download the demo to your hard drive and play it free.
