About Us

Brocade.pro was founded in 2018 by a team of strategy game enthusiasts and history buffs who wanted to create a deep, immersive medieval strategy experience that honors historical accuracy while delivering engaging gameplay. Based in Boston, Massachusetts—a city steeped in history—our team of 14 developers, historians, and designers is passionate about crafting strategic challenges that reward critical thinking, diplomacy, and empire-building. Our story began when our co-founders, Alexander Hale and Sophia Martinez, met while competing in a medieval strategy game tournament. They shared a frustration: many modern strategy games prioritized fast-paced action over deep strategy, or sacrificed historical authenticity for flashy mechanics. They set out to create a game where players could build empires, negotiate alliances, and wage wars with the same complexity and nuance as real medieval rulers. At Brocade.pro, our flagship game, Crowns & Kingdoms, is a medieval strategy MMO that lets players build and manage their own kingdoms in a sprawling, dynamic world inspired by 12th-century Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. Players choose a faction (knights, mages, merchants, or nomads), construct cities, recruit armies, gather resources, and interact with other players—either through alliances, trade, or war. What sets us apart is our commitment to historical depth: our units, buildings, and technologies are based on real medieval designs, and our diplomacy system mirrors the complex alliances and betrayals of the era. Our team brings diverse expertise to the table. Our lead game designer, Thomas Bennett, is a former history teacher who ensures historical accuracy in every aspect of the game. Our technical lead, Priya Patel, specializes in optimizing MMO servers to handle thousands of concurrent players and complex battle mechanics. Our writer, Lila Moon, crafts rich lore that weaves historical events with fictional narratives, making the game world feel alive. Our community manager, Jake Taylor, fosters a competitive yet respectful environment for strategy fans, hosting monthly tournaments with in-game prizes. Since launching Crowns & Kingdoms in 2020, we’ve released three major expansions, each adding new regions, factions, and strategic mechanics (e.g., naval warfare, castle sieges, diplomatic marriages). Our community has grown to over 600,000 players worldwide, with alliances that span multiple countries and host their own internal tournaments. We’re proud that our game has attracted both casual strategy fans and hardcore gamers—our difficulty curve is designed to be accessible to new players while offering depth for veterans. We value our community deeply. Every update is shaped by player feedback—for example, we added a neutral trade city after players requested a safe space for diplomacy, and we balanced unit strengths based on community data. Our forums and Discord server are hubs for strategy discussions, where players share tips, form alliances, and debate the best tactics. We also partner with historical museums to create educational content about medieval history, aligning with our mission to make learning fun. Looking to the future, we plan to expand Crowns & Kingdoms with new historical eras (e.g., the Renaissance), a mobile version of the game, and a single-player campaign mode that lets players relive key medieval events. We also aim to launch an esports league for competitive players, with cash prizes and global recognition. Our goal is to become the leading name in medieval strategy games, known for our historical accuracy, deep gameplay, and vibrant community. Whether you’re a history buff, a strategy fan, or just someone who dreams of building an empire, Brocade.pro invites you to enter the world of Crowns & Kingdoms. Raise your banner, forge alliances, and conquer kingdoms—your legacy awaits. Contact us to share feedback or learn more:Brocade.pro321 Castle Road, Boston, MA 02108, USAEmail: [email protected]
