In addition to customizing your characters with a chosen specialization and attributes, you will get to learn abilities and perks very different from those of “brittlebone” races of Eo featured in the main game and the first expansion.Īkrog and his companions have their own specific abilities. I’m a big fan of stories of non-evil monster races and have not minded this development one but I can see where other players might wish it was paced better.įallen God has taken a few steps forward in terms of the RPG elements. The campaign does some very serious world-building, which can lead to long drowning dialogue sequences interrupting the usual gameplay. The story of Fallen God is much more personal and smaller scale than the epic of SF3 and the mystery of Soul Harvest. The Trolls were never a part of the Purity Wars and the later conflict between the humans, Dark Elves and Dwarves. Unlike Soul Harvest, the roots of which were tightly intertwined with the story campaign of the base game, the second expansion is much more of a spin-off than a direct continuation. The young Chieftain must resurrect a fallen god in a gamble that it might save and protect his clan.įallen God is truly a standalone. When the Moonkin clan is uprooted and chased from their lands, Akrog and his trusted advisors are forced to accept a deal with a mysterious elven mage known only as The Stranger. Of course, through the campaign you will see that there is much more to his abilities. He can hear the voices of the spirits – or so he believes. However, Akrog has his own Gift from Mugwa, the trolls’ Goddess of the Moon.
He’s also not the most knowledgeable or experienced troll around, being questioned and advised at every turn by his older clanmates and trusted-ones who do not yet see him as Chieftain. Akrog doesn’t possess the same legendary strength that set his father and his brother Noag apart from the rest of his clan. In SpellForce 3, you take control of Akrog, a young Troll burdened with the responsibility for his dwindling clan and younger brother.
