This long-awaited sequel was developed and published independently and was set in a lower-magic era. We knew that if the stars of game business aligned we’d bring them back, bigger and scarier than before.Īfter Triumph’s Overlord period came 2014’s Age of Wonders 3. At the conclusion of 2003’s Age of Wonders Shadow Magic, the warring Wizard Kings were banished from Athla along with the Shadow Demons.

The premise and focus of Age of Wonders 4 has been two decades in the making. Here we’ll talk about the game’s inception, big new features, and what you can expect in the coming months leading up to release on May 2nd! You can wishlist the game on Steam today! Haven't reached that yet so I can't tell you wether there is more to come or not.Welcome to Age of Wonders 4’s first Development Diary! There is also an achievment for managing a mission with 300% XP bonus (the more difficult the missions get, the more % XP you can rack up). There is an achievment for reaching empire level 300, which is done by getting all races and techs to their maximum level, I guess. starting with some early techs already unlocked.

In the end these boni are: units you can't normally build, mods to install on units and heroes and doctrines and operations you get to select boni before each mission to buy during the game with those empire point I mentioned earlier. starting with a commander and getting heroes that are already leveled The more artifacts and XP you gain over the course of the missions, the more boni you'll get. There are additional sidequests, some fix, some randomly thrown in, which provide additional XP for races or techs. The race, secret tech and heroes gain XP during such missions. You get that points from achieving secondary goals.

I think its called empire points? It's a resource to buy pre selected boni during your mission. The grails have to be found in archeological expeditions. You basicly just have to win the mission (no matter how) to get the artifact - besides the grails. On these missions can be found artifacts. you create yourself a roaster of heroes, from which you choose one as the commander for the next mission.
