Me and dwarftough are glad to present your our edition of the legendary Drakes campaign, refined and adapted for MP.

- Refined gameplay that includes 9 battles in which you have to demonstrate your Drakes skills,
- In-game Drakipedia with in-depth Drakes lore

Description: Seize, conquer, dominate, expand. That was ever the Way of the Drakes. But the Brothers of the Spiral Path have seen a vision: Irdya is made like an egg, and the day will come when there is no more world to conquer — and what of the Way then? There was a drake named Galun on whom fell the burden of finding an answer...

Here are more,
Wesmere and Elensefar are doubled, cause we got in Foothill our scales kicked, so we restarted in Elensefar.

And the last two.

Overall I liked the campaign.
The difficulty is on point with some scenarios that are a bit too hard I think and others too easy.

Foothills, is a fine scenario and only the spawning spiders kicked our ass or disrupted our whole formation.
So I'll suggest a slower recruit rate from the spiders.
Also maybe on a more easier difficulty make the animals fight the undead too.

Fire meets Steel, was a tedious scenario. We needed to restart this once and had to sacrifices good drakes.
The combination of, bad drakes terrain and good dwarven terrain and thunderes hurts.

Another side notes to the scenarios, it felt like that almost all scenarios were tinkered to the coresponding faction and worsen the experience for drakes.
Like, a lot of hills for trolls and dwarves, a always dark cave for undead and spiders, a whole forest of ambushing woses and elves, open fields for human cavalry and skirmishing fencer.

I also had the feeling that we get the whole Drakes roster, but the scenarios didnt offer us a real choice to use the whole roster.
Saurians felt useless, except for healing and last scenario.
Drake Clasher, was mostly too slow to catch up with the other drakes and mostly if they reached the front line, they needed to retreat.
Drake Fighter, was a fine all arround unit.
Drake Glider, was really usefull, mobility is king.
Drake Burner, in my eyes the MVP of this campaign.


The Lore felt a bit empty. We got a lot of short dialogues. I can't really pin it down, but it felt dull. I need to say the lore in WoF felt richer.
For example, the player can recruit saurians quite early (S2), but the drakes state that their ressource are rare, so I don't see any reason, why the drakes should coexit with such little creatures. Getting them as allies on the Great Continent would feel great.
I believe the dialouges and lore will not be reworked, cause this MP campaign is based on Wings of Victory and that will not see any changes.
Drakepedia was a really cool read.

Thats all I have. Those are my inital thoughts after finishing the last scenario. This last scenario was quite easy, thanks to saurian cold magic.
