Chaosy: Story said:I kinda feel like the story is very random though, like we're just running pointless errands waiting for the real missions to come.
-Ghoul
-Skeleton warrior
-Death Knight
-Skeleton Mage
Plot:-/5To early to talk about it but i have a feeling i won't be disappointed
@Chaosy:
I disagree, the missions are of much greater level then those of Blizzard. The first chapter for example, in the quest where you have to free the other undead bases, the one on the hill, holding crypt fiends is quite challenging to get to (with demolishers and towers sh*tting all over you). I like the usage of terrain in that chapter (mostly for gameplay purposes, noth aesthetical ones), though it's not of outstanding quality, it surely meets the average standards. Though, I also felt like chapter two could use more decorations. I also enjoyed chapter four a lot. It was quite challenging and it's hard to catch the target in a good position to attack (mostly just because I was too impatient lol)
But, if you really use cheats, then you can't really notice all these things. Also, if you think his terrain is bad, you should tell him exactly what to improve. Simply saying "It sucks", is not gonna cut it.
Reading this statement, my logical assumption is that you haven't played the other two books, because you would otherwise know it all comes together.
Didn't mean to offend you in any way, I just disagree with what you said.
Capturing the 4 nexus(es?) is technically different different gameplay because the words are different. But in reality you just run to a location and kill everything, how is this different from attacking a base in a melee map or a chapter in the default campaigns?
I wont notice a lot of minor tweaks by running with cheats indeed. However I am able to get the big picture (according to me). The only campaigns I play without cheats are those that aren't full gun 'n' run. A wonderful example would be the last guardian, that one is truly unique and entertaining (no advertisement intended).
@story
I have played the other books as stated above. But I still feel like the chapters are random. The first two chapters are totally fine, and then the third one was kinda 'meh', after bothering to take control over them, you kill them. I can think of many ways to work around this.
The fourth chapter felt odd too, fighting demons was no surprise, but demon slaves?![]()
And then the 'last' chapter went back to killing humans. Whom you already have control over (kinda)

*Taps mike* Well, hello again ladies and gentlemen. I'm here again to bring you a special announcement on the Legends of Arkain.
As of right now the interlude leading into the next chapter is done and chapter six is half done as well, but I gotta tell ye it's going to be different this time around so be prepared for some...heh.restrictive building
One more thing that special surprise we've been talking about, and the one I got Shar to not release, will be coming soon as well.
This has been your local Imperial Vox Channel and remember to please report any suspicious activity to your local Arbite authority.
-In the orc mission number eight, after destroying the imperial base, I could no longer move Zairmak until the cinematic finished.
-In the last orc mission, the paladin says that Aedale has been corrupted, but during my human campaign, which I played previosly, I rejected absorbing both artifacts therefore she was uncorrupted at the end of the campaign.
-In the new undead mission, the one where we destroy the fleets, the dreadlord only has 1 of armor (3% of defense).
WTF? Someone even more cunning than demons and Aridon!? Seriously!?
Anyway, I'm a bit confused with the arrest, there I see Aedale is arrested and later I see she's talking with Lisara.
Anyway, does this special comes as the opening of the second books?
@all: Thanks, glad you liked it.
Hard to believe, isn't it?
Be patient. Everything will be revealed in due time.
There will be other things and I think that the Second Books won't have one and the same Prologue (as the First Books had) since the stories of the First Books, while having similarities, are different.
More information about the Second Books will come once the First Undead Book and another special, I'm currently working on, are finished.
You said that the human campaign doesn´t affect the orc campaign. Does this means that the choices we make in the first human book will only affect the next human books?
So in the undead campaign when Aridon speaks of the Forgotten and how they were defeated by the imperials, it doesn´t matter whether I had decided, in the first human campaign, to help Gardon or not?
But still I think it is a very good project this amazing campaign, though I would like to see more diversed spells. Sapphira has all the regular Dark Ranger's abilities, as well as Largoth and Veringar. Sapphira could have somesort of corrupted elven spells; Largoth could have some spells like temporary mid control or summoning dark thoughts (like the ones he summoned in the second mission) and to Veringar spells that could be a mixture of frost, necromancy and unholy (like the Death Knight class in World of Warcraft). This is just a suggestion though.
I actually like Aridon's, Rahandir's and Krom's spells. They are very creative and quite useful.
Watches the first trailer and my first comment (warning spoilers) :WTF? Someone even more cunning than demons and Aridon!? Seriously!?

The human campaign doesn't influence the orc campaign and visa versa. It's three different storylines in the same setting.
I am in a way both dissapointed and relieved that the campaigns doesn´t influence each other.
Dissapointed because I would like to see how my choices would change the entire story and the plans of three races. For example, how Aedale being or not being corrupted would change Aridon's plans for her.
Relieved because if the three books were connected, then I would have already killed almost all important characters, like in the mission number nine in the imperial campaign where I 'kill' Rath and Sasrogarn.![]()
Well this requiers alot of work time and detication and Shar works on this project mainly alone.So i wolden't count on it.The human campaign doesn't influence the orc campaign and visa versa. It's three different storylines in the same setting.

Actually, both survived Chapter Nine of the Human Book - they escaped and will most likely be back. Defeating a character and his army doesn't automatically mean that he's dead.Other characters, on the other hand, will die permanently once you defeated them.As seen in the cinematic, Theoden survived as well, as you might remember.Like Merlon in the Orc Book, you're not going to see him again in the other Orc Books.
Although it's not impossible to make each First Book influence the other First Books, it'd be waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much work and barely worth the effort. It would also force me to change the storylines dramatically and I'd have to create new characters to replace other characters and since there are 6 more campaigns to come... That'd be so much memorizing and saving that both you, as players, and I, as creator, wouldn't like it since you'd have to play several missions again to really change something.
Creating several storylines at the same time in the same universe has proven to be confusing for many who played without reading everything, but I won't change anything now. It's fine the way it is.
Version 0.51 released
Chapter Six:
- Changed Epilogue story
I highly advise everyone, who already played Chapter Six, to play it again, to avoid further confusions.
Sorry, I will try not to do it again. But I love this epilogue more than the other by far. It is far more realistic and expanded.I also ask you to use spoiler tags in the future when talking about stuff like that. Not everyone who is reading here has already played every released chapter up to this point.There was a bug that didn't make the effect appear that was supposed to make them unable to move. Also, Aridon couldn't use all of his forces to hunt Largoth - he needs them to fight the Demons. But anyway, I changed it now.
