The Disciples World Expands…
is a press release from Strategy First announcing plans for two new stand-alone
expansion packs for Disciples II: Dark Prophecy. Here's the word: "The
first expansion, Disciples II – Guardians of the Light lets gamers play as the
two 'good' races in the franchise: the Empire and the Mountain Clans, and the
second expansion, Disciples II – Servants of the Dark, features the game’s
two 'evil' races: the Undead Hordes and the Legions. Both stand-alone
expansions, Guardians of the Light and Servants of the Dark, can also be
combined so gamers can play all four races." Word on scheduling is that
Guardians of the Light will ship in May 2003 and Servants of the Dark will
follow in June 2003. Here's a bit more on planned content:
The two expansion packs will each include 2 new high-level mini campaigns, a random map generator, 16 skirmish/multiplayer maps including 10 never-before-seen maps, and all the updates for Disciples II – Dark Prophecy. Art enhancements will include 3 new special characters, new capital backgrounds, new battle backgrounds, new music tracks and more.
"I didn't really care for Disciples 2. While the artwork was fantastic, the game itself was pretty weak.
I really didn't like how the best (only?) way to win the levels was to create one uber-party and then a couple of low grade parties (used only to sweep up remains). "
I found the artwork a little too dark and oppresive for my tastes. I'd rank the game number 2 behind AoW2, and well ahead of HOMM4. I liked the gameplay, but as you said the game devolved into uber parties...and whoever lost theirs was pretty well hooped. Still, until that event occured, it was pretty enjoyable.
I also don't care for this two expansion pack thing....better to make one really good one, than two mediocre ones. Strategy First strikes again?
Yes, still kinda pissed at the state Hearts of Iron was released in....X|
