The following is an excerpt pertaining to the inclusion of RPG elements in Battle Mages:
<blockquote><i>Q: Battle Mages is advertised as a hybrid RTS/RPG game, could you please elaborate on that?
A: We've introduced the role playing element in addition to classic tactical battles: through fighting, Player's units gain experience and new skills and abilities with it. Moreover, the Player himself also accumulates experience points and has an opportunity of developing different abilities affecting his style of passing through the game.</i></blockquote>
