    Hello everyone and welcome back to Age of Wonders 4! Today, Kel'Thuzad rightfully earns his title of Lich-Lord after an abrupt change in plans at 26:18 leads to a domino effect engulfing the world in war. While looking to strike in the heart of the Eastern Kingdoms, Kel'Thuzad partially seizes a Lost Wizard's Tower at 51:10, rescues his Vassal from the Chief Thane at 1:11:14, and faces the unrelenting wrath of the Wildhammer Dwarves at 1:29:25, but what does death really mean to someone who has mastered it? At 1:51:05, the Cult of Eternity fulfills its promise of seeking eternal life and now sets its sights on its ultimate goal: the Age of Shadow. Thanks for watching!

    You need to take more care of your vassals :-) Use Rally of the Lieges to reinforce their troops, should also work when they are currently besieged?

      I've taken extra precaution in this playthrough because of Disdain for Evil, but my evil tendencies won't be kept at bay much longer. 😈

      @@Fableheim your resurrection story was actually also fitting, since you went wightborn at your first resurrection and than you proceeded to get revenge and then falling to DEAD neutral.

      I think it's more of a design flaw/philosophy. They like to punish bad alignment choices.

      @@zj871023 I do think there should be a penalty for being Evil, but there should be an equally beneficial trade-off. Right now, the only "benefit" is being able to slaughter for exp and pillage for gold with reckless abandon, but I personally don't think that's enough.
      In AOW3, there were special spells (Destruction) and certain units (Dedicated to Evil) that could only be utilized by an Evil character, and that helped to make an Evil campaign feel quite different from a Good or even a Neutral campaign.

      @@Fableheim I agree. As I observed the game design revolves around hindering rapid expansion and quick growth/spike in power so I wouldn't hold my breath. The AoW3 buffs would be a good start. Maybe they want to homogenise too much. Bringing that back would exclude picking opposite tomes though. For example one that summons an evil and an other that summons a good aligned creature.
      Currently they went in a direction where you can mish-mash anything. So clear lines in the sand are problematic.

    Great narrative and rpg aspects as always! 👏 👏 👏 And love love love that this campaign is tough so far 😂 . So interesting when you have to really strategize and can't just steam roll. And to reinforce a previous comment you can buff ur vessels via rally!

      Advantage is certainly making the AI a lot more formidable, but I think everything is starting to come together. 😼
      It's been so long since my Vassals were actually threatened that I forgot it existed. 😅 Thanks for joining in on the reminder!

    I'm having so much difficulty getting a foothold in my own undead run. I either spread too far, or run out of resources or just make enemies lol. If only I had a Blint to help me...
    I'm even playing on Relaxed difficulty because I'm not great at the game lol.

    • @Fableheim
      @Fableheim  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Blint was less of an aid and more of a wall in this campaign, at least he was a sturdy one.
      It can be difficult to get an Undead economy up and running, but practice makes perfect! If you have any specific questions, I'll do my best to answer them. (:

      I'm not sure myself how it happened, but Blint's presence has become a bit of a reoccurring meme on the channel. A Blint variant is present in every playthrough for the lolz, but this is the first time there's been two of them. XD

    how would you build the emperor of the galactic empire?? would kinda want to see that now :D

    • @Fableheim
      @Fableheim  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hmmm, I think that if you wanted to go maximum roleplay (and who doesn't?) then you would go Wizard King for Palpy himself, Reavers for the Culture with the Scions of Evil and Silvertongued Society Traits. You could replace either of those with Wonder Architects or Talented Collectors, if you wanted to lean in to the Emperor's obsession with ancient Sith artifacts. For the playstyle, I'd probably try to go with an Astral spellcasting focus combined with Materium to have even a remotely successful frontline. I don't think I've done a proper Astral spellcaster yet, but Kurdran's off-map zapping is making it quite appealing. XD

      @@Fableheim aha i think this would be fun to try! what name do you think the faction should have? and the choice between red for the sith or white and black... could you do a little video??

    • @Fableheim
      @Fableheim  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      @@seltin1988 I think the faction name would depend entirely on what you wanted from the faction. I'd probably just go with The Empire, make Palpatine as he was portrayed in the original trilogy, and have the faction colors designed based on the black and grey colors of the Imperial Army (not Stormtroopers). In this scenario, the campaign theme could be as some sort of small-scale administrative invading force, so it would make sense to lean in to Free City/Vassalization support as well.
      Or you could go full-on new age Darth Sidious and try to create a Sith Acolyte type Culture, but that would probably align more with Mystics. The possibilities are almost limitless!
