Description:
By order of Elyssa, the Holy Unicorn Empire is attacking Grimheim. Its ambitious warlords crave glory and recognition. For them, they are ready to bring the dwarves to their knees. However, King Valentine and his allies are holding back the enemy's onslaught. Perhaps, the great Andrias will have to take the course of the war into his own hands. But not everyone is ready to accept the angels' plan. In long-forgotten dungeons, another force is preparing to change the fate of Grimheim.

From the author: Many players are returning, and the story of "Dark Sides" continues! Before you is a story-driven scenario for a new faction based on Inferno, for the Hell Forge, developed by fktifzobr@mail.ru and improved in terms of balance by me. Try your hand at being the supreme priest of the Chaos dwarves, who have not only the power of the infernal gates but also powerful magic at their disposal. As always, unusual moments and additional quests await you around every corner. Including new units, objects, and artifacts. The scenario consists of several stages, each of which will try to test your strength. And to make it even more fun, you will have to fight on two fronts, because in addition to the new faction, you will also control one old faction. But not only are the enemies strong, but so are you! All the possibilities for creating powerful heroes are available on this map. So go ahead and fight for the glory of Urgash!

The new Hell Forge faction combines the gates and high attack of Inferno with the good magical characteristics of the dwarves. The wheel remains unchanged, but you will have to play with an emphasis on magic. The Chaos dwarves' troops have very powerful abilities and a wide range of tactical possibilities.

The map is a pure mod! Install only on a clean version of the game! It conflicts with most other maps-mods, especially with my other maps!

Installation and removal: the map comes with a modified RTF mod pack and music. To install, simply unzip the downloaded file into the game folder. To remove, you need to remove not only the map but also the RTF_Inferno_V2 file from the data folder. The music itself does not replace anything, and you can leave it. It should also be noted that the map will not run without the mod, and the mod itself is different from the one in the usual RTF, which can be downloaded here.

I thank comrade Gerter for his help with particularly difficult scripts; fktifzobr@mail.ru, Zakhar, Roman RRR, Hannik, and the NCF, NHF, and NAF modding teams for the models and icons used; and once again, Gerter for testing the first versions of the map, as well as many mapmakers and modders whose works I drew inspiration from .

I welcome constructive criticism and feedback.

I wish you a pleasant game!
