They mastered the ability of Irresistible Magic, which made their spells so powerful that even those who had the strongest resistance to magic have little chance to resist. They were once part of the Sylvan faction, but became renegades when they made a pact with the mysterious Faceless (in fact they are falsely accused of Brittiga's burning and the king Arniel's death, and they had to turn to Malassa for their survival). Hailing from the underground empire of Ygg-Chall, the dark elves Dungeon faction are a group of fallen elves whose society is built around faith in Malassa, the Dragon of Darkness, secrecy, plots, and betrayal. They can use the dark magic of necromancy to re-animate slain enemies and fill their own ranks with shambling corpses. Once a secret cult flourishing within the dark underside of the Empire and the Silver Cities, the Necropolis faction resides in Heresh and is ruled by corrupted wizards who worship a twisted spider version of Asha, the Dragon of Order, seeking to find everlasting peace and beauty in death that has been denied to them in life. Making their infernal abode on blasted lava terrain, the demons are the primary antagonists in the game, led by Urgash, the Dragon of Chaos, and their evil overlord, the Demon Sovereign Kha-Beleth. Arising from their military tradition, they have the ability to train their soldiers, promoting them from one level to another.Ī dark kingdom of demons from the underworld known as Sheogh, the Inferno is a faction which uses "Gating", a method used to summon additional, though temporary, reinforcements onto the battlefield. Haven is a faction populated by humans and ruled by religious warlords, the Holy Griffin Empire propagates "Law and Order" and faith in Elrath, the Dragon of Light, as their supreme goals. The army of the light shall stand victorious. The game was also more balanced as magic damage from spell have been reduced and rely more on buffing skills on your army to win the battle. The ending of the campaign was a blast too after making such a tough villain and go through much length and effort to end it once and for all. This made me felt that my efforts were all recognized as I always perfect my story each time before I progress to the next campaign. The best part I would have to say was each campaign main heroes get carried over to the final showdown against the boss. Personally, this is my favorite heroes game in the sequel as the campaign has a great storyline that kept me playing on, wanting to know how it ends and story between characters interlinked together.
