This is the storyboard of the Empire campaign. Its content and that of linked pages represent just an idea for the Empire campaign.
These pages are for developers, only. Players shouldn't read this pages, to save the fun of playing the campaign and reacting in the story.
You should now quit this page and do not read on!!
For all of you who want to know what's going on, well ... let's open the book ...
It would be nice if you could correct errors or wrote a little critic on the discussion page about each part of the story.
For those who don't want to read the whole story, I wrote a short Summary of Empire Campaign. Furthermore there is a Page about Empire Protagonists, with pictures and short idea of the people acting in the campaign.
The campaign will be splitted in two parts (like the Barbarian story).
First there will be a tutorial, but without introducing the game interface (We believe the player played the Barbarian tutorial before and knows, how to build a building, streets or flags).
In this part the empire-infrastructure will be introduced, as this is partly different to the Barbarian one.
The second part is named "Gazing for expansions". And leads the Empire to war against the Barbarians.
Main character of the Empire campaign will be Lutius, a young general.
More information about him can be found on the Empire Protagonists page.
After loosing a strategic battle against the Barbarians, which leads to the loss of a bigger part of the Empire's territory, Lutius leaves Fremil, the capital of the Empire, on a small ship. He gets into heavy sea and has to land on a unknown desert strand.
Just a short sequence at the end of 2nd tutorial, explaining how Lutius comes back to Fremil, to offer his help in defending the Empire, against the Barbarians.
End sequence -> Lutius stands on the walls of Hareth'Kan and looks northwards to the wild waving northlights. He wonders whether there can be people living north from here -> Mark to the Northmen tribe ;)
