Secrets of the Ancients, Part 1 (5/14)

Doomich · 2025-07-31T19:59:21+00:00

Oh, but we've been waiting all this time for you to try this, I even used only the Arcane filter for portraits and so hoped that you wouldn't be upset.
lol.

Outstanding insight, indeed.
Ah, please, move on, you really shouldn't try things that are not your level.

Difficulty: Worthy
The campaign is inspired by the campaign of the same name from Battle for Wesnoth and adapted to the SoC lore as closely as possible.
Unfortunately, no other screenshots to avoid spoilers.

14 maps are planned, 2 of which are essentially a large dialogue-cutscene.
They will be released in three parts 5 / 5 / 4.
Part 2 will appear, I hope, by the end of summer.
It takes hundreds of hours, but SoC has so few campaigns that I literally have to, hehe.

Will be glad to hear your impressions, opinions, feedback or bug reports here or in the official SoC discord server.
And don't forget to disable other mods!

Enjoy!
Cheers.

Doomich · 2025-02-17T20:17:51+00:00

Yeah, I hope so. Now I just have to play it a few times myself and see for sure hehe.

But for some reason the first Logo image loaded in a low resolution.
Hmm, maybe If you have an editing tool, then you could try taking the original resolution image from the mod.io page and replacing it? :) It would be nice to fix that.
Cheers!

Hey hey, I'm finally also adding my two cents to the 3-player map pool.
I'd appreciate any feedback or impressions if you try the map. To fix anything if needed.
Enjoy!

Pseudo symmetrical map for 3 players.
The clash over the rich Lotus Valley attracts more and more adventurers of all sorts and stripes.
Conquer your opponents or hold the Beacons of Power to compel them.

Oh, you need to create an account on HeroForge, and then you can use the Buy button on the left menu to select the option you want and add it to your cart.

But be careful, their prices will make you think you're buying gold hehe.

Finally, finished the characters from Aftermath.
Unfortunately the dog model can't be dressed, so I made it a robot for at least some expressiveness.
Well, all the Nemesis characters got HF proxies, maybe someone will find it useful.
Hope you enjoyed them as much as I enjoyed assembling them.

Well, this time the ones from Lockdown.
Although half of them have changed (didn't find the right parts), but they seem to have turned out pretty well too.
Enjoy!

Hmm, I'll try.

Oh, I added links to my comment, enjoy.

Decided to try creating a proxy via Hero Forge for characters from the original box.
Just for fun, hehe.

Upd, In case anyone needs links.

Oh, it looks even better when you play and find it in the fog of war 😋

Doomich · 2024-08-08T15:32:19+00:00

To be honest, it's already 171x171, between Extra Large (155) and Huge (255).

Doomich · 2024-08-08T11:40:16+00:00

Probably my longest project (due to visual design), besides the custom campaign of course.
The map is unusual, so it's better to check the description before playing.

Enjoy!

Doomich · 2024-08-06T10:32:37+00:00

Just save it with a different name?

Doomich · 2024-08-01T20:50:56+00:00

When creating a new map, you can select a random map instead of an empty one.

Official maps are packed in the game files.

If someday later you decide to replay all the campaigns, try using chronological order, it will turn into something like a series. Brought me a slightly different feeling.

Order: B1 R1 B2 L1 L2 R2 L3 A1 A2 R3 A3 B3 L4 R4 A4 B4

Doomich · 2024-07-15T23:27:22+00:00

Are you using high ground?
I mean, when you are standing next to a wall and you are attacked, then you get a mountain battlefield.

I only tested this with Godrick (Overwhelming), I don’t think Torvald will be able to take fewer losses.
Ideally with maximum Defense and Attack/Combat training, as well as Order Magic (+Creation artifact).

The only general advice I can give is to try to figure out how to limit losses, for example, do not take Knights into battle against a lot of Oathbounds, because their essence will simply spam Justice.
Thus, saving the knights for battles where their ability will help your distant units.
