Fort Triumph is played in two phases. During the overview world phase you'll look for items of interest in the game world, trying to collect magical items and resources to expand your empire via your fort. It's here you'll add buildings, recruit new units, and add upgrades to your army overall.  Also in the world are enemies where you'll be taking on set battles with aptly descriptive help text like "A Small Group of Wizards".  Once you enter these battles the game takes a more XCOM like approach where each character is allotted 3 action points per turn and allowed too move, defend, attack, and support with their team.
