Map Highlights

The two opposing forces land exactly at each edge of the map, both establishing their camp next to a gold mine. To the west stand the proud humans, working feverishly to get out their footmen and hero as quickly as possible. The orcs, building on the eastern side are more relaxed, preferring to establish a strong supply network with a strong defense first.

As the orc hero, followed by his grunts, ventures out of the village to fight his first troll encounter, the humans have already conquered half of the island. However, as the humans run around the map gaining fighting experience, the orc leader takes his army to seize another goldmine and establish a second base there.

After setting their second base too, the humans do seem to be more powerful since that they have covered more ground. But by now, the orc force has invested in improved technology and are better armed for the first clash between these armies.

Again proving themselves wiser when they meet a goblin merchant, the orcs purchase a shredder and immediately send him off to cut trees and so supplying the army with much needed wood. Just a little earlier, the humans have purchased a Zeppelin from the same merchant. Their intention is made clear when they keep hopping around the islands killing the natives but without actually establishing any more colonies.

When the sun starts to set, a small detachment of both armies commanded by their heroes meet near the middle of the map. The humans started to look stronger, backed with better magical powers, but the tough orcs can take a beating and instead end up running after the few surviving humans. While their hero takes e breather near a fountain of mana, the orcs have ammassed enough resources to be able to supply enough forces for the upcoming offensive.

This time with a full blown army, the two races clash again in the same spot as before. Again the humans seem to be better off, but as the battle rages on it is their hero that joins his dying subordinates. Casualities are large on both sides though, and after the battle a second orc hero uses this momentary calm to fly a group of peons to establish a further camp on another small island.

As the build-up towards a critical battle approaches, it is the humans that take the initiative and attack the nearest orc encampment. The orcs are quick to come and defend it though, and they win the fight with only a few losses. At this point the situation shows the orcs with two active gold-extracting bases and a large nervous army that is getting anxious for war against a single active human base with no army to defend it. The ensuing fight is not that straightforward for the orcs, but they can keep pumping new fighters into their army until the human supplies are drained out.

With the human base wiped away, the orcs march upon their enemies' village and start to tear it down without really finding much opposition. The night is kept alive with flames and as the cock is heard in the morning, the human colony is no more. The orcs are victorious!
