What's inside

Six factions. Six stories.

Each campaign hands you that faction's tier 2–6 upgraded roster at ten weeks of growth, then escalates the odds across six hand-tuned levels. No kingdom to run, no map to cross — every level is a battle you fight yourself.

Play the six, or build your own

Both live under the Battle Campaigns menu — all of it data-driven, so new content drops in as editable text files with no recompile.

Faction Campaigns

Six 6-level story gauntlets — one per faction. A fixed army, no hero of your own to lean on, enemies stronger on paper every step.

Manual tactics only — no auto-resolve
Point-buy commander before each fight
Boss heroes lead the final battle
Objectives: survive, protect, or decapitate

Faction campaigns

The six

Knight

The Knight's Path

against the vampire lords

A holy order marches into an undead tide — bandits give way to vampires and bone dragons.

Sorceress

The Whitewood Wardens

the blightwood arc

Grand Elves and unicorns hold the wood against corrupted beasts and warlock legions.

Boss: Alamar · 6 levels

Barbarian

Blood of the Clans

unite, then conquer

A warlord binds the rival clans, then wars on a lowland wizard enclave of golems and titans.

Boss: Sarakin · 6 levels

Warlock

The Ashen Ascendancy

from the Cinderwaste

Hydras and red dragons burn through the green kingdoms — until a rival Dragon Master answers.

Boss: Wrathmont · 6 levels

Wizard

The Sundered Codex

the wards have failed

A stolen codex looses the elementals; a Titan-heavy enclave stands against every power at once.

Boss: Mandigal · 6 levels

Necromancer

The Deathless Crown

the risen lich-lord

The dead war on the living, from village militia to a crusader church and a grand coalition.

Boss: Maximus · 6 levels

Before every fight

Build your commander

Each level opens on a pre-battle screen: study the enemy stacks, reorder your fixed army, then spend Hero Points on primary skills, secondary skills and spells — buy with a left-click, refund with a right-click.

A one-line objective tells you how to win: annihilate, survive, protect a stack, or strike within a round limit. The enemy is stronger on paper — you win on tactics.

The pre-battle loadout screen showing both armies, hero points, and a grid of skills and spells to buy — **The pre-battle screen.** Point-buy commander, army preview, and the level objective.

The custom campaign editor listing a campaign's levels with options to add and reorder them — **The custom campaign editor.** Both armies, terrain and objectives, level by level.

Build your own instead: pick the faction, set both armies for every level, choose terrain, objective and boss, and play it straight away.

A campaign is a plain text file, so sharing one is sending a file. Drop somebody else's into your data folder and it appears in the list.

An in-battle story briefing titled 'Level 5: Warlock Vanguard', with a Sorceress army facing gargoyles and griffins — **Level 5 — Warlock Vanguard.** A briefing sets the scene before the Sorceress army meets the ashen legion.
