New Character revealed: Kagar the Lightning – if prudence is not your thing

Frankfurt am Main, Germany, 24 May 2007 - Leading video game developer and publisher Fireglow Games TM , best known for its Sudden Strike® series, today reveals the second main hero of the upcoming RPG/RTS-Mix Stranger®: Kagar is the choice for players who love to go full force on the enemy. For full information on the character and the game, please visit the official game-website: http://www.stranger-game.com.

Kagar loves two things: a fierce battle and his lightning spell. That's why they call him Kagar the Lightning. He's quick to move through enemy hordes with his superb sword skills. Being unbeaten in countless battles, he does engage in a fight without caring about friend of foe. If his blade is not enough to overcome the enemy, he will use his beloved lightning spell to strike his opponents. And if that's not enough, his Fire Shield spell will do the rest.

Backed-up by allies, he can overcome any army. Kagar is the choice for players who like to engage directly in battle and use brute force.
