Posts from Fallen Knight

Thank you for the Walkthrough. I'm glad that no bugs were found. I'm a little surprised that you liked Heart of Chaos – I always thought that scenario was some boring mess.
Everyone has different experiences – some people think Hafaad is weak, others think Dominic is. Chaos didn't die, and I think I'll remove it altogether when I rework Fallen Knight into a Campaign mission (yes, there will be a Campaign), because the fight with this guy somewhat contradicts my vision of the story.

 

The Heart of Chaos is missing just a couple of strong heroes with good armies, which I would place on the side of the Dark Elves. Otherwise, only one decent hero with a more or less normal army appeared to me, and even she was defeated without any losses on my side; the rest of the castles were just a joke. I crushed them all, except for the last one, where Chaos magic sent all my troops back to the gods. If it were made like in the 3rd mission of the original Rai'lag campaign – where you have to capture a clan from scratch, so that each castle has a Dark Elf of level 20-25 and a lot of Chaos magic, then yes, then it would be much more challenging. Chaos itself is already a huge imbalance, and if you go for ballistas and Chaos magic, it's just insane.

Story-wise, the Heart of Chaos is a very cool mission. The dialogues are amazing – as far as I understand, they were all taken and reworked from the original game to make it look authentic, and I was incredibly impressed by this. I don't understand how anyone could dislike this mission. If you add more hardcore elements, it would be even better. The map itself is small and can be completed in an hour or two; how can you get bored with it, unlike the Fallen Knight, which took me a whole day to complete.

However, in my subjective opinion, the imbalanced Dark Knights ruin it. It would be more interesting without them.

You have encountered the leader of a bandit gang... because bandits can attack you at any moment.

Who placed these garrisons on the roads?

As it turns out... they were placed on the orders of Sir Laslo, the castle's commander.

I would like to hear the latest news... what has been happening lately.

A lot has happened... the ominous smell of campfires (the first part resembles a bandit's monologue)
However, the bandit advised... to find out much more.

I will impale your head on a stake! (Attack)

I hope that if you use this mechanic in the upcoming campaign, you will be more original and inventive.

I registered on the forum just for this scenario! I spent the whole day playing through it, and overall, I really enjoyed it. Killing Alaric over and over again is a special kind of pleasure. The only thing is, if the author decides to remake this map, it would be 100% necessary to add hints, such as: 1) I've collected almost all the artifacts, now I don't know what to do, because the undead legions are too strong, I can't kill them, and only after half an hour of futile attempts to find another way, I decided to check them for script triggers (you could launch some kind of scene/quest update, with a hint that now you can go through the undead); 2) if the army is clearly not strong enough, add a hint that the character is not yet ready to go to the Bright Forest; 3) the demons in the center of the dungeon... do they have any practical purpose?

As for the positives, I really liked the cutscenes! Despite the scarcity of dialogue, the scenes themselves are on par with the original story, it really brought back memories. The scenario doesn't skimp on battles involving, I'm not afraid to say, thousands, and at times even tens of thousands of warriors on one field. There are dozens of artifacts scattered around the world, allowing you to create a build that suits you. I really liked the analogue of the Knights of Isabel in the form of a "wandering knight." Essentially, it's the perfect tier 6 unit to start the game with. Just for fun, at the end of the game, I collected 103 of them). Sorry if I didn't follow the local customs, I just wanted to share my thoughts about the scenario I played, all the best

Hello! I'm playing through the Fallen Knight scenario on Hero difficulty and I've encountered a problem. There's a quest to find the Tome of Power and bring it to the Sage. However, this tome is guarded by Ents who require 20 Druids in the army. I brought them 20 Druids, but the message doesn't disappear and it still says that 20 Druids are required in the army. Maybe I misunderstood something or I'm doing it wrong. Please advise what I should do. P.S. The boss, the Guardian of the Library (Nadír), is impossible to beat. I've tried many tactics, including counter-spells and using a "house" strategy, but I'm left with only one option: to overwhelm him with brute force.

I made updates to this map a long time ago, and a lot of bugs were fixed. The quest with the Ents should work; try either using a different hero to go there (Hafad or Dominic), or make sure your Druids are not upgraded (the Ents only accept basic Druids).

I tried with both main heroes, but it still says I need 20 druids, and they won't upgrade for me. Maybe it's because I'm completing this quest too late, as I've progressed a lot and the script isn't working. It's a shame, but I still want to finish the game with this hero.

Then abandon this quest. The reward isn't worth it.
It's better to continue with the main storyline – there are NO bugs in it.

Ah, I understand what the problem is. There's a hard dependency in the script, not only on 20 Druids, but also on one quest.
Did you take the quest from the Elder Druids near Shellera? Because it's absolutely necessary for the Ents to join.
