Design your own undead army or lead the Empire of the Dead to dominion over the living
in the latest DLC for Fallen Enchantress: Legendary Heroes.

The ancient sorcerer now known as Morrigan the Risen returns to leave another black stain on history as he leads the Empire of the Dead in his skeletal form. All-new mechanics change the way undead empires form and grow; they grow their population by spreading cemeteries and mausoleums rather than farming food like lesser races. Undead casters enjoy all-new spells, including the abilities to feed on the lifeforce of friendly units and even conjure a powerful but temporary army from nothing.

Fearsome monsters await in the Dead World. Undead varieties of the already-terrifying half-spider Brood and the never-before-seen hell knights challenge adventurers and armies alike. A new hand-crafted map holds carefully placed secrets to discover.

The Dead World DLC Features

  • A brand new faction: the Empire of the Dead, led by the nefarious sorcerer Morrigan the Risen. Undead ignore food, growing their population by building cemetaries and mausoleums and by reanimating slain foes
  • New spells for undead casters – summon a powerful but temporary army, feed on the lifeforce of friendly units in battle, and more
  • New undead empire fully implemented in faction/army creators – design your own skeletal and spectral troops
  • New custom map: The Dead World
  • New Hellknight monsters – powerful mounted undead knights with enchanted gear
  • New Risen Brood monsters – skeletal undead half-spider monstrosities

This DLC I will get.

Stardock, if you want more of my money, keep adding more classic fantasy factions.

Repost from other thread:

I noticed that the units file for the Undead faction, when downloaded from Steam, had an "a" as first letter before it's proper name.  It's possible that that error caused another faction to be used, a bit like what happens when you use mods that add other factions and also use CoS, without full support for those other mods.  If other references go to its proper name, then the error would prevent normal working of the DLC as it would not find the Undead units.  I renamed before I started and my undead towns properly use undead and the undead rules.

Undead cities don't have any natural growth, but any growth bonuses still work, up to the Grave Limit.  So this means Tower of Dominion (+1) and the Forgetting special building (+3) work, and even Sovereign's Call (+2 Growth) should work if you happen to get a champion with Life Magic.  There is a special city spell that gives any city that has it +1 Growth for each Death Shard that you have in your empire, but I'm not sure if you actually have to have it built - I had a Death Shard and it got razed by wandering monsters, and when it was rebuilding I still got the bonus.  Maybe it has that old bug that prevented other spells from updating the next turn, which has been fixed for all the core spells.

Btw: can Stardock, can you remove Kingdom as an option for the Undead faction?  The way it is portrayed in the game, as well as the way it is normally portrayed, prohibits Undead from ever being a "Good" faction (except in Age of Wonders 3 hehe).  And the Morrigan spell is useless if you are Kingdom.  Basically, in this game, Undead are Evil.

This is the first DLC I purchased. Pretty top quality stuff I must say. I like the ghost females and the undead horses, they make it a real faction. The Grave system is cool as well. Now we need a new kingdom faction...

Oops.

Question: If Undead ignore food, why can they build food improvements in their cities?

on Oct 31, 2013

It's only the Pier improvements. The pier (rank 2) has Gildar improvements too. Although they could probably do away with the Pier since the undead do not have to pay wages for their units.

I'd like 2 or 3 factions for $5/ to be honest.  Oh well I'll probably spring for it anyway.   I might wait for 1.5 though first.

Just wait for a Thanskgiving or Christmas sale on here or on Steam.

Besides, there seems to be a few issues with this DLC they need to iron out.

You can create your own factions. Whats wrong with the DLC. It works fine.

  Taking a cursory look in other threads it seems you can't play AI with this faction, there is a typo that makes undead cities have trogs instead of undead, and a few other bugs.

/facepalm

 

There is only 3 reports.

Undead is unplayable for AI- probably by design

transparency issue - 

The zoomed in *citizens* (not units)  for undead are Trogs not Undead. I can't log into the game right now but  someone confirm if you create a Kingdom Undead it will likely be Human citizens. 

Very minor issues. It's a great experience and well worth the $5.00

on Oct 31, 2013

This is a great surprise! Keep 'em coming, please.

on Oct 31, 2013

Well done!

 

And from what I gather, we are essentially 'crowd-funding' future AI upgrades and patches too.

Back in the day of CD's and boxes, prices could take quite a while to decrease. Now in the age of digital distribution, you can get substantial discounts simply by waiting for a couple of months.

A little patience can save you money...and we'll still get the updates.

I personally will never pay full price for game software ever again.

On large maps where you dont find someone to go to war with fast, how do you get ppl to your cities??? There is the tower of dominion, but thats hardly enough to get a pioneer or two. The few bandits out there doesnt make for much either.
