TOPIC: Up From the Ashes- New Demon Themed Campaign
Up From the Ashes- New Demon Themed Campaign 10 years, 9 months ago #1165
After completing Reign of Death, a sequel to Darklords Rising starring the High Elves I am now set to start on production of another additional campaign for Warlords III starring one of the 23 factions of Etheria that do not yet have a campaign. I had a plotline for Dark Elves, Barbarians and Demons, I polled the community and the result of my poll led me to settle on Demons.
Up From the Ashes Up From the Ashes is a campaign feuturing the demons and is both a sequel to the Warlords III Campaign Horn of Kor and the prequel to Warlords Battlecry II campaign (mentioned in game as the War of the Second Battlecry). It begins in the ruined Lysean Empire after the Orcs of Kor have departed from Lysea, leaving Lysea in chaos and much of the population starving. At the same time like many decadant great empires in their waning years they dabbled extensively in dark magics. This combination of factors has created a land ripe for demonic infestation. |

Hi.
It's so wonderful that you keep this good old game alive. I'm new in Warlords so my question can be idiotic... What unit set you use in campaigns you made? And you posted some threads about the races. But as I had noticed, there are no races in Warlords 3 DLR as they are in Warlords 4. Or am I wrong? Thanks in advance. As soon as I can I'll try to give you feedback about your campaigns. |

As soon as I can I'll try to give you feedback about your campaigns. There are races in Warlords 3 actually, abilities like elfslayer, deathslayer, manslayer, orcslayer target a specific race which is a property that belongs to units (not sides). The units I use I can't remember offhand, mostly the available units from the packs like Stormheim and stuff like that. They are all publicly available in the download section anyway. The basic logic behind making my first campaign was that we didn't really have a proper campaign for all the stock races, most notably for the elves. I intend to create a Etherian campaign for each of the races (defined somewhat anachronistically) and I started with the High Elves. The Wood Elves and Giants have been covered already by Stephen Hand (who made the Thallasia Campaign) as the Huge Wars and Elves Return. |

Well, of course, there are orcs, demons and such in Warlords 3. I meant that there are no races in sense as they were in Warlords IV, divided in tiers, when every race has a cheap melee fighter, a shooter, a siege engine and so on.

There are no races as a game mechanic except as a function of units. That much is true. However there are the default 8 races/sides in the game and some of the flag graphics for the towns of a race are clearly built around the 8 races mechanics which are as follows. Side 0 Knights (White) Side 1 Giants (Yellow) Side 2 Dwarves (Orange) Side 3 Orcs (Red) Side 4 Elves (Green) Side 5 Empire (Blue) Side 6 Barbarians (Teal) Side 7 Undead (Black) Swaigstiks wrote: The units I use I can't remember offhand, mostly the available units from the packs like Stormheim and stuff like that.

Armies are automatically packed along with the campaigns that use them and will be installed when you unpack the campaign. You only need the packs if you intend to use them as part of a custom army set or a new scenario. |

Thanks for explanation.
And what about AI? Does it do well with the new units? |
