The big guy really blew a gasket! All you wanted to dowas add some efficiencies to the system, standardize routines,and document procedures. But the next thing you knew, Michaeland his cronies were swinging their swords and showing you thedoor! (Ver. 1.1)Special Win: None.Special Loss: Lose Satan the Demoniac.Special Other: NoneDifficulty: ExpertSize: Large, 2 levelsPlay-Testers: Bess Overlord bessoverlord@hotmail.comDragonfly dragonfly@mightandmagic.comJolly Joker Ch.Jentzsch@t-online.deRex Mundi Rexmundi_cto@yahoo.comBlackDog BigwigDM@aol.com(A special thanks go out to all the playtestors, especially Bess and Dragonfly. If youthink the final version is hard, you should have seen it when they got a hold of it!)Designer Notes:This was a pretty fun map to develop, and again I would like to say this is merely adiversionary form of entertainment and is not meant to belittle anybody's religiousbeliefs (or incourage them, heh!) A special effort was made to make the map afree-flowing strategy map after an initial period of a scripted story map.I hope I got this balanced correctly and the transition is not too abrubt. I firmlybelieve that too many constraints can ruin a map, especially in the last couple of monthsof play.Out of necissity, I disabled the Fly and Dimension Door spells. This hopefully is madeup by the fairly early availability of Town Portal and, of course, the Castle Gates inthe Infernos.SPOILERS: WARNING!!!

The angels will hound you down the stairway, kick you out ofthe Rampart, pursue you out of the Tower, and trounce you out of the Stronghold.Concentrate on getting as many resources as you can, rescue your fellow fallen ones, andvisit the Grail Obelisks. You should be arriving in Hell around the end of the first month(maybe a little sooner.)You are *not* safe in Hell! Expand and explore as fast as you can. You need torescue Lucifer as a priority, and take at least two other inferno towns and get the Grailinstalled as soon as possible. The Devils in the Landing Zone area will join you, so thatwill help matters immensely. The towns after Pandemonium should probably fall to you inthe following order: Despair, Famine, Misery, and then Pestilence. You will start seeingNecro armies cruising your shores by week 7 or 8, with a very tough Thant landing shortlyafterwards.After you blunt the first couple of Necro incursions, you should be safe enough toexplore more, take the remaining two Inferno towns, rescue Mephistopheles, and conquerTeal. Next is a maze which is a minor obstical (and a secondary hero experience gainer).Beware though. The purple Dragon Lords can eventually invade there, so use caution. Thereshould be some tough battles with purple, and the only valid tactic is really to kill theblack dragons, blind an enemy stack, and Resurrect like crazy to bring your army back.Only then may you gain your access back to the surface, only to see some reallybig Angel armies floating around up there. You really need to use the Armageddon tacticwith Mephistopheles and Lucifer in order to triumph. Beware! Blue can eventually get toyou in Hell starting at around Month 4 to 5, so you are not always going to have a safehaven from them.Tips on fighting with 1 Arch Devil:Keep the Spirit of Oppression equipped at all times against opponents that have achance of getting a morale boost. Take it off for fights with golems and elementals.Do not forget the value of war machines as diversionary targets!The value of a good Cure spell should not be underestimated, as well as Shield.You have mobility, use it!Tips for fighting the mega-angel armies at the end:You have two fantastic "Armageddon Heroes" for assistants....use them!!! Hit and runtactics will whittle them down quite effectively. Most are immune to Berserk, so the goodole' end-of-days spell is your best hope. Consider using the Spirit of Oppression againeven on the big fights at the end. Angels seem to give out *more* than the maximum numberof morale bonuses, but it might just be my imagination. ;o) [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ] |
