You know, every time that I see a game that has Scenarios / Modules / Campaigns instead of 'Campaign' in singular, my respect for it goes a notch higher.

And the little I just saw makes me really, really hopeful.  Maybe my wife will even lift her moratorium on modding done by either of us.

By the way, I am getting SUCH a strong Age of Wonders vibe, it's scary.  The Dark Elf campaign of the original Age of Wonders is my favorite fantasy campaign, ever, ahead of Dark Omen, Planescape Torment, etc...  And I've played a lot of them.

After another day of grammar crap my vision is like the matrix, except much more boring:

Second and very last sentence of the fallen enchantress screen are fragments, not a big deal really, and the colon in the first paragraph of the Chapter 1 screen should be a semicolon.

To be honest I have rarely played strategy game campaigns in the past preferring to get into a full on sandbox match but this intrigues the RPG gamer in me.   I will definitely play the scenario.  

I find myself very much in agreement with DTOM, here.  I'm not normally much of an RPG Fan.

I love the FE  (4X)  sandbox already; and the degree of customization it permits (races, Sovereigns, land-forms, monster density etc.) is what will bring me back to the game, again and again.  In essence, this (relatively) open-ended platform will allow me to create my own scenarios, which will largely fill my need for a campaign-like buzz/experience.

That said, this looks great! -- and I will surely give it a spin too.  I appreciate that you have a real writer (Dave Stern) to have essentially scripted the campaign for you.  That extra touch, plus the extra Artwork, will certainly add to the element of immersion, and make the Campaign a must play -- at least once.

Like you said, Frogboy:  it's the cherry on top of the whole desert.   Good Move !          

Awesome, Brad. lol @ Jack, Captain of the Grammar Police.

I hope that's not the case.  You'd think that at least one fantasy character would have the brains to figure out the concept of self-fulfilling prophecy, or at least to figure out that you cannot trust an oracle to be truthful if her self-interest may be involved.

If I had a buck for every story in which the 'heroes' follow a prophecy without asking themselves "Am I being led by the nose by a tall tale that someone concocted because it may make me advance his plot?"...

I hope that Ceresa is a good gal, and that she has to deal with suspicion, and eventually it turns out that the Fallen Enchantress is the part of her that got separated when she (Ceresa) became a wraith... The wraith got the soul and the gift, the 'difference' got the body and the lust for power.

Looks nice. I see v1.00 in the video.

I certainly do hope that I am wrong, I like being wrong, since I end up surprised by the actual plot twist.

But think being in Procipinee's position, you know the rise of a empire that will cause ruin for centuries to come is about to occur, what do you do? Stay put and live in fear that the empire could be at large in the east and gaining power, or go find help despite the off chance that is the start of the prophecy itself?

I just think both the characters bear some resemblance, but personally I hope that the Fallen Enchantress is not even Ceresa, but some new sovereign, specially considering that no Dev I have seen has called the FE Ceresa so far, so maybe we are just being led to falsely believe it is her...

Oh well, we will soon see what comes to pass.

I think you guys have it backwards. My arbitrary prediction: Procipinee ends up being the main antagonist, the "Fallen Enchantress." She is, after all, the one trying to "unite the realms of the world under her banner" - how do you think she's going to do that, hugs and kisses? She's a power-crazy conquerer, who's sending her minions (you!) to the other side of the world, just to brutally stamp out someone she thinks might be a threat to her dominance someday. Eventually Procipinee crosses some moral event horizon, becomes the Fallen Enchantress, and you (Relias) turn against her with Ceresa's help. At least, I hope so - that'd be a lot more interesting than an entire campaign of just smashing the evil empires in the name of good Procipinee.

Also, it's Procipinee who has the 'Enchanters' faction ability, who else could be the Fallen Enchantress?

Okay, so if and when multiplayer* support is added, will we be able to make/play scenarios as multiplayer? If so that is so freaking awesome, I don't even know what to say. Also, this whole added dimension, plus the custom maps, plus the added scenarios sure to come from modders (I'm not very good at it...) is just spectacular. I was already excited for this game; now I'm ecstatic. And for the record Frogboy, I happened to be in Best Buy the day of WoM's release (pure coincidence honest), I didn't even know beforehand you were releasing a new game, and I bought it solely on the fact that it's a new Stardock game. Needless to say, you and your company have lived up to that trust, and I'm not disappointed. There are still a few bugs I'd like ironed out - or explained maybe they are design decisions, but that can wait till after release. 

*I heard that multiplayer support is either coming 1)In a patch 2)In DLC or 3)Could be modded in anyways. Is this correct?

Edit: forgot to add that this scenario with more story and background from the Elemental universe is awesome too. Exactly what SOASE was always missing.

Frogboy, Derek.  It is essential that you fix the installation issues as posted in this thread.  It does not matter how great the game is if you can't get it to install properly!

I like this one, if only for the fact that humans and fallen would ally to fight against a common threat.

I always wanted to see some sort of truly diplomatic victory where both sides could cohabit.

This would also be pretty interesting since I believe that the girl you start with is one of Procipinee's daughters, I base this on the fact that at the end of the WoM campaign, I vaguely recall Procipinee telling her daughter that she is going to go an gain Relias's trust or something along those lines.
