i just realized theres a developer following this post

#

I'm thinking of giving Arawn the developer doc with all the major lore, etc.

#

All the little details aren't very important.

#

The developer doc also has all the campaign stages scripted.

#

S4me found the Sten assets.

Part III needs new units. I'm all ears.

But for fan units to be included, I need them to be tied in with the lore somewhat.

wraith trout

#

Defence ignores splash and bonus type damage

#

By bonus I mean light or heavy. For example, Archis deals 35 damage against a Light unit, but if he [hypothetically] shot a unit graced with Earthen Ward, he'd only deal 25.

I don't think Zarek would fight Zilaros since Zarek was drunk when he treated Zilaros like crap, but when he was taken to prison and had flashbacks he became a good person and decided to drink water instead of wine

#

Zarek without his crown in prison looks cursed

clever steeple
#

It's actually Zilaros who has a grudge against Zarek since he said one time in a dialogue: "Zarek has held my crown long enough"

so apparently Zilaros will have some villain/traitor arc or sum shi

@frozen roost first merc lore

Feared in every frozen valley and blood-soaked ridge of the north, Hakvar Wolfsbane earned the name Mauler of the North not by title, but by terror. A lone mercenary with no master and no banner, he answers to no kingdom - only the call of the hunt. His savage raids left entire garrisons vanished, their bones frozen in place, their tales whispered by wind and wolf. Even Spearos dares not speak Hakvar’s name without steel in hand.

Those who’ve faced him speak of a maddening howl, of wild eyes that burn with old fury, and of whirlwinds of steel carving through the snow. He does not come with armies - he is the warband. Some swear he’s more beast than man, shifting in shape when the blood spills thickest. But all agree on one thing: when silence falls, and your breath fogs before a final sound... it’s already too late.

sharp dust
frozen roost
#

I'm suggesting a name change because of how complex this project is going to be. Given time, it could even increase and feature even more content than I had initially planned, but I don't want to drag it out.

Even though the main focus of the campaign is the red man himself - Bacton - he only appears during cutscenes and will only debut in person for the grand finale.

With the introduction of a new level (and perhaps another cutscene), it's quite hard to keep the current name, especially when there's a lot of new characters being introduced. I'm referring to mercenary captains and other new Generals, friend or foe.

Where would you like to start?

wraith trout

The characters and the entire plot of the campaign

#

basically just the main info you'd need to understand what's going on

#

No real need for character backstories that isn't rlly too essential to the main plot but would be cool if heard

maiden temple
#

Hello

frozen roost
# wraith trout The characters and the entire plot of the campaign

The Order Empire:
●Zilaros: After Wrathnar's defeat and the fall of the Lunarclops, Zilaros heads home via the Great Bridge, which was besieged by mercenaries. With the help of the player, he survives alongside what's left of the army returning with him.

●Zarek: A major reason as to why the campaign happened in the first place. After the Second Great War, he sentenced Bacton to be executed, however, he escaped. If the execution was successful, Bacton never would've plotted and enacted his revenge.

Mercenaries:
●Silverhearts: Led by Great Silver Sten. The Silver Hearts act as security for Lavish's territory against the Borderland Flame Feeders, who he feared would pillage his mines. For payment, they were given silver, but since Order passed through and stopped the operations, their supply has been cut off. Angered, they didn't hesitate to assist Bacton in his plan to wipe out Order.

●Deadeyes: A culture of archers, most of which are women, led by String Saint Kestral. Deadeyes were mistaken as savages by Order, resulting in them being attacked. Due to the skirmishing force being slaughtered by a barrage of arrows, Order was discouraged to continue their attack and avoided the Deadeyes. Deadeyes agreed to join Bacton's plot out of fear that they would one day be unable to prevent Order from invading their colony.

Blights: A cult that had wormed itself into the underground of Capital Iris. Blights are just as lethal, if not more, than Shadowrath. They were believed to be a myth, however Zilaros' experiences at the Great Bridge confirmed their existence. Collectively, they drone about obscure concepts such as the 'Red River' and 'The Fløw'.

Ripriders: Bacton's company. Not much is known about them as they've managed to keep themselves secluded. They were firstly and lastly encountered in a passage several years prior to the Great Bridge incident.

#

Also, why should Order cover Lavish? They attacked him in the first place (in the Order Campaign).

wraith trout
#

They would be severely in trouble if they anger lavish of all people too much

#

I think all the order miners are in lavish's control, so they're gonna take a huge damage in their economy

frozen roost
#

In the Shadowrath lore, Shade gifted her father the Shadowrath to lift the Majestic Mafia's hold on the capital.

wraith trout
#

I think in that point of the campaign zarek was still out of control over everything

#

Also zilaros didn't want to go there, but they had no choice since it was in the way of their path

#

Idk why they didn't just go around it

#

I'm guessing zilaros only pushed through the mines doing the least amount of damage he could

frozen roost
wraith trout
#

Also it's crazy how zilaros started all the wrathnar stuff because of his greed

#

He legit attacked the flamefeeders who wanted nothing to do with anyone just because of the treasure

wraith trout
#

But idk if zarek himself actually had beef with lavish

#

Zarek is close friends with lavish

frozen roost
#

Initially formed by Princess Shade, the Shadowrath were a group of assassins commonly recruited from the best of the Swordwrath. Originally formed to battle the mafia stranglehold, after some success. Princess Shade gifted them to King Zarek during the second great war.[1]

wraith trout
#

Had he known zilaros was intervening with lavish, he might've stopped zilaros on the spot

frozen roost
wraith trout
frozen roost
wraith trout
#

Also it still seems zarek doesn't fully trust the shadowraths even after the second war

frozen roost
#

Anyhow, don't you think it would be in-character of Lavish to have at least some form of extra security?

#

In a direct conflict, he wouldn't be able to take on the Borderland Flame Feeders.

frozen roost
#

He's cooked.

wraith trout
#

But when zilaros was in lavish's mines, he stated that an all out war with lavish was inevitable but avoided it by rushing out of there as fast as he could

#

"but not today." He said

frozen roost
wraith trout
#

That means they're atleast stronger than them

#

But if order themselves don't even want to initiate a war with lavish (aka the leader of the majestic mafia), then that speaks numbers

#

Also zilaros mentioned that the mafia claims to control order's cities

frozen roost
wraith trout
frozen roost
#

The only threat I can imagine Lavish doing is inflating Inamorta's economy by printing coins.

wraith trout
#

His main base are the mines, which means he immediately has the advantage in economy

#

He could mass produce men to the point the flamefeeders can't keep up

#

he's absolutely rich, he might even buy wrathnar's leadership of the flamefeeders by bribing everyone with money

frozen roost
#

Bribing is a viable strategy, but what about direct conflict?

#

On the battlefield, I don't see the Majestic Mafia winning.

wraith trout
#

He summons miners from nowhere

frozen roost
#

Lavish vs Wrathnar is like coughing baby vs atomic bomb

wraith trout
#

But if wrathnar pulls out the lunarclops

#

Then yeah idk what lavish is gonna do

#

He's just cooked

frozen roost
#

Don't forget that Wrathnar's troops are enhanced by lava

#

So all of his men would have a higher kill-to-death ratio compared to what Lavish has.

wraith trout
#

Even using gameplay wise weapons enhanced by that insane substance would easily melt equipment and burn everything around them

#

it would make no sense for atreyos to somehow beat them to the point lunarclops appears and be somewhat damaged instead of being a pile of melted charred goo on the field

#

Even if it would just set units on fire and not being pure lava

#

You are setting units on literal fire

#

I don't think guys like atreyos would even survive that

frozen roost
#

You are on to something though

wraith trout
#

If order units could survive wrathnar's troops then lavish's could to the point they could still put up a fight

Wrathnar would have more damage, but I don't think it would be to the point it's a complete slaughter

frozen roost
#

Spearos found Glacial powers underground, Mera found Vampirism in an artifact, Magis harnessed Voltaic, and... Wrathnar dipped his sword into lava like a chip and became a superhuman?

wraith trout
#

There is a literal tribe called sub zero

#

How the hell are you even warm and living my brother

frozen roost
wraith trout
#

Or even with no tech or upgrades, just pure units

#

Altho that's gameplay

frozen roost
#

Let's try and leave gameplay out of the equation and focus on lorewise

wraith trout
wraith trout
#

Not all of them but probably a good amount of it

frozen roost
#

Wait, if we're talking about what Order has acquired, I'm pretty sure he wouldn't. He'd have his own unique technology

wraith trout
#

If wrathnar manages to take down lavish or hinder his economy in the early game, then he would win
(Or basically, just overpower lavish in the early game)

#

But if lavish manages to reach late game, it might be over for wrathnar

#

By that point lavish wouldn't have to break a sweat replacing all of his men

frozen roost
#

Are we talking lorewise or in-game?

wraith trout
#

Lorewise

#

Stick war cooked my brain to the point I use early game and late game💔

frozen roost
#

Lavish is pretty much already on the late game

#

He could summon an army just by tossing bags of money onto a field

static ingot
#

this post is so active

wraith trout
#

It's one of the best fan ideas to ever be made

#

Treasures like these need to be preserved and kept alive

frozen roost
#

This is only Part I and I'm amazed at how it's still relevant

wraith trout
#

If lavish is near his mines or is in a gold rush situation then it would simply be a complete win for him

#

But if it's in the middle of nowhere it would be harder or possibly impossible for lavish

frozen roost
#

I agree on this circumstance

#

Plus, I don't think Lavish would want to be dragging a bag and pickaxe around if his enemy is tearing his army apart

#

He seems to be the type to send an army with a pseudo-leader, rather than place himself in that situation.

wraith trout
#

Unrelated stuff but I'm starting to wonder how gold is even valuable in the stick war world

#

Value is represented by how rare and limited something is

#

Gold is like one of the most common resources we have ever seen in the verse

#

How is it still valuable

frozen roost
#

In SWL, all units could wear gold

#

Swordwrath had golden swords and helmets

#

Actually

wraith trout
frozen roost
#

They were JEWELLED

#

FREAKING

#

JEWELLED

wraith trout
#

But still

#

Absolutely insane

#

Lavish definetly controls every single mine in the world, which means order also has control to those mines

#

Anyways, back on topic (we got so offtopic💔)

#

What are the silverhearts again?

#

Like what weapon do they primarily use

frozen roost
#

Credit: LaliteshSSF

wraith trout
#

Thx

#

Silverhearts greatly remind me of Xenophon

#

He must be a legend to them or a significant person to their lore

#

since he wields a large blade similar to them

frozen roost
#

Silverhearts have operated exclusively in South West Inamorta

#

That is, until Bacton contracted them

wraith trout
#

They're kinda similar to eachother

wraith trout
# frozen roost

Okay argegis is insanely broken and overpowered but it's campaign only so it's fine

#

Seems like a not so fun enemy to face

#

@wraith trout you'd understand why Lavish would have wanted these folks as first responders in case Wrathnar attacked, yes?

wraith trout
#

Not just wrathnar

frozen roost
#

It had to be done to tie in with the lore

wraith trout
#

I wonder if lavish will betray order and join bacton

frozen roost
#

But I'll cement it while it's still early

#

Bacton would still side with Order, or remain completely neutral

#

Bacton is almost as rich as he is

#

It would also be much more harder to tax an Inamorta controlled by mercenaries, rather than one or two superpowers

#

Especially if a lot of those mercenaries find a lot of non-gold things valuable.

wraith trout
#

Now I'm thinking if bacton wins this campaign, how would the elementals react

#

Specifically V

frozen roost
wraith trout
#

Isn't inamorta the planet itself

frozen roost
#

Marrowkai would also be sweating knowing that some man way out of his prime managed to take down an entire empire

frozen roost
#

I have to find the post again

wraith trout
frozen roost
#

@wraith trout found it

wraith trout
#

Order lives in the third map and explores the second map

#

Chaos lives in the second map and might explore the third or first map

#

Elementals live in the first map

#

All of these are just islands of inamorta tho?

#

Islands or continents

frozen roost
#

Well, I suppose I should say they'd want to stay away from Central Inamorta

wraith trout
#

Yeah that makes more sense

frozen roost
#

Marrowkai's goal seems to be revenge, so when Zarek is slain he'd lack motivation

#

He might desire power though

wraith trout
frozen roost
wraith trout
frozen roost
wraith trout
#

I still have a theory that deads and chaos are diffirent and not in ties because of the kai

#

Or because deads might be too much of a liability now that only a singular Kai is in control of every single one of them and is a past orderite aswell (plus is much more recent and less experienced than the kai's chaos originally knew)

#

Plus in swl there is an upcoming gamemode called relentless deads which is in the pov of the chaos empire

frozen roost
#

Oh??

wraith trout
#

Swl is also getting a chaos campaign/chaos's pov so yippee ig

frozen roost
wraith trout
frozen roost
wraith trout
#

Two possible scenarios I can think of is they try to punish bacton or deem bacton as the new rightful leaders of the order title because they're more worthy

wraith trout
frozen roost
# wraith trout Still just a random guy tho

Bacton served during the Second Great War and sided with Order. At some point, he was paid a hefty amount of gold by the Rebels and fought for them. Eventually, both sides began bidding to have him on their sides. At the end of the Second Great War, he was put on trial and was given a death sentence.

#

He was too dangerous to be left alive.

wraith trout
#

Damn he's a beast

#

Shouldn't he have a massive bounty on his head?

#

With all that resources on the line I think every other empire would want to kill bacton

#

Even the deadeyes and silverhearts

frozen roost
#

I also should've mentioned that he was sentenced to execution after the Rebels were crushed at Westwind and united with Order in No Man's Land.

wraith trout
#

Cuz I think if it was big enough, chaos and maybe some other guys might want to get involved

frozen roost
wraith trout
#

Plus chaos is kind of in a situation where they desparately need some resources to get back into their former glory

frozen roost
wraith trout
#

But yeah I can see order blacklisting chaos from this

frozen roost
#

But that's very minimal.

wraith trout

So what are the top names so far

frozen roost
wraith trout
# frozen roost

Okay now that you mentioned bacton having a bounty on zarek himself

#

Thats a complete game changer

#

Everybody would want to kill zarek

frozen roost
#

It's also a foreshadowing

wraith trout
#

Even zilaros

#

They'd rather try taking him down than taking bacton down just because of zarek's relations towards others

#

But bacton being a monster is also a good factor as to why nobody has the balls to assassinate him

frozen roost
#

This is a little homage to Bacton's partner in crime - Rex.

#

Probably the most lore accurate depiction of him.

Lore suggestion for Sten: He shadows himself bomber_troll

Besides this being just a fan idea, I think we could take some inspiration from it, but a 1:1 copy probably won’t work.

sonic pewter

👀

frozen roost
#

I'm guessing you're referring to the story. If I could, I would love to ask CJ a couple questions just to iron out some of my inconsistencies and keep this project as close to lore as possible.

#

New upgrade added - introducing Blitz.

#

This one took me a while to figure out, but I'm sure you'll love it.

#

Here's how it works with using Sten's HP as an example.

echo tendon
# frozen roost What does 1:1 mean?

When I said 1:1, I didn’t mean just the story. I meant the idea as a whole, and it wouldn’t be an exact copy in any aspect. We could definitely take inspiration if we’d like, but we wouldn’t copy it directly. CJ is probably busy and might not be able to respond right away, but you could try reaching out to him via email if you’d like to ask a few questions.

frozen roost
#

"Silverhearts" and "Deadeyes" are terms that refer to the mercenary company as a whole, rather than the individual unit themselves. For example, Sten is said to be the "Leader of the Silverhearts" without the mention of the Argegis units that fall under the same banner. Ergo, some mercenary units have been renamed.
