What's inside

Six factions. Six stories.

Each campaign gives you that faction's upgraded tier 2–6 creatures at ten weeks of growth and six levels against stronger enemies. There is no kingdom and no map: every level is one battle, fought by hand.

Faction Campaigns

Six campaigns of six levels, one per faction, each with its own story and a fixed army.

Every battle is fought by hand; there is no auto-resolve
Before each fight you spend hero points on your commander
An enemy hero leads the final battle
Objectives: destroy the enemy, survive, protect a stack, kill a target, or win within a round limit

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 says how to win the level. The enemy army is stronger on paper.

The pre-battle loadout screen showing both armies, hero points, and a grid of skills and spells to buy — **The pre-battle screen.** Both armies, the hero points to spend, and the 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.

In Custom Campaigns you pick the faction, set both armies for every level, choose terrain, objective and enemy hero, and can play the campaign straight away.

A campaign is a plain text file. Export in the campaign's menu downloads it; Import adds one that someone sent you.

An in-battle story briefing titled 'Level 5: Warlock Vanguard', with a Sorceress army facing gargoyles and griffins — **A level briefing.** Each level opens with a short piece of story.
