#1Scenarios
This will give a brief explanation of all the actual Scenarios available to play on Age of Wonders... here they are!
#1
Although some scenarions have custom settings as in being the ELVES for example, you can choose to be another one of the races by clicking one of the buttons on the races that say "CPU Squire" and click it onto HUMAN. After the Fall is the MAIN SCENARIO of the game, where you must gather the land as your own against all the other races. This is the best scenario really, although you have alot of competitors... if you play this game right you can almost always win. I highly recommend beng Lizard Men, Dark Elves, Humans, Elves, and Highmen on this one.
#2
You are the Lizard Men, who must defeat the other races to reclaim Barondir Bay, the Lizard's actual home. But of course... like all scenarios, you can play as the other three races that are available on this scenario if you choose to.
#3
Blood Isles is a very fun scenario! It is a small world like scenario, and you must gather Goblin forces, set sail to the other parts of the land, conquer other races and independent towns. Then build more units, set sail once more. You could even have a ship war in this game with Galleons, what a thrill it is to play Blood Isles!
#4
Cold Fusion... another one of the most fun scenarios that you can play. This is the ULTIMATE good v.s. evil scenario. You are the Highmen, who must gather forces in the cold northern lands, reports of huge Frostling towns and cities await your conquering... migrate them out of their land and migrate to the Highmen, returning your race to their ancestral home! After this of course... the real cause is to rid the land of the UNDEAD FORCES! KILL THEM... KILL THEM FOR THE SECOND TIME!
#5
Diplomacy with Dragons can be a long scenario to play, and it gets boring after a while. I would recommend playing as the Orcs to spice it up a little, because it sure takes a while. They say it is called Diplomacy with Dragons, but that really means that you are able to make Ice Drakes as the Frostlings... confusing! The Orcs have the Red Dragon as well... maybe that means something, but nevertheless, a worthy scenario.
#6
The First Conflict features you as the Elves, whom are allied with the Halflings. You must rid the land of the Orcs and Goblins... but beware, they are CPU Lord enemies and this could be a BLOODY scenario. Luckily you have Halflings as an ally... enjoy this scenario.
#7
Once again, you are allied with the Halflings set on destroying the Orcs and Goblins. You are in the actual Heartwood Forest, and must reclaim it for your own and for the Halflings. Can you do it? It is easier than The First Conflict, the difficulty settings are easier.
#8
Honeyvale Falls you are the Halflings, no allies this time. You must fight Orcs, the Undead, and the Frostlings whom are trying to take over lands that are originally and rightfully yours, the Halflings! Will you let these beasts of war take over your rightful home? YOU MUST STOP THEM!
#9
How unlucky the Frostlings are, how they have the Undead, Dwarves, and Humans to deal with barging into their lands! You will have no allies or peace treaties in this scenario, and must fight three opposing sides... make lots of Yeti, good luck.
#10
Hero Igor is sure a smart Undead leader, he has created a war between the Orcs and Dwarves, so he can recruit their dead bodies to give himself more soldiers! You are the Dwarves, who must fight the Orcs in a bloody battle. Good luck.
#11
Maybe one of the most unique scenarios Kin Slayers is. It is a battle of two of the most distuingished races, Elves V.S. Dark Elves... and surprisingly, you are the Dark Elves! Slaughter your sun dweller brothers and take over their land and turn it into darkness!
#12
This is a confusing scenario to me, other than being Undead of course. You fight the other Evil races to conquer the whole land. After being overrun by the Highmen, the Undead escaped to this land it appears and the other evil races do not want the Undead there. The other evil races defy the most evil race among them all? They will pay the ultimate price.
#13
A misunderstanding has occured between the Dark Elves and the Orcs. The Dark Elves promised Orcs certain parts of lands, and the Orcs took the wrong part of it, and a bit more than they even agreed to. The Dark Elves demanded the return, and the Orcs refused... creating an all out war... and you are the Orcs.
#14
The mountains are indeed an interesting terrain, hard to move on and yet for Goblins and Dwarves... easy due to their mining skills and cave crawling abilities. For the Halflings however, they want the mountains... the Goblins refuse their bickering and demand true battle for their lands!
#15
Here is the scenario that you can control one of all twelve races once more! You are however by default the Humans. This scenario is very much like After the Fall, for you must conquer the land for your own. However UNLIKE After the Fall, you start out with stronger forces such as a few more units and a larger town, and even more closer resources! This is one of the best scenarios.
#16
Ah... a scenario where you play as the Azracs! You will play against the other races in this one, to take control of the whole land for your own usage! As I have stated before Azracs are the second best race, due to their incredibly powerful units! This may be an easy scenario for you.
#17
Reign of Chaos can be a little tricky. You are the Elves, and as usual, you must conquer the land for your own. Although the Halflings and Dwarves will usually propose peace treaties with you, after you slaughter the Dark Elves, Orcs, and Goblins... you will eventually have to slay the other good races as well! Be wary!
#18
Rise of the South... once again you play as Azracs, and once again you must conquer the whole land from the other races! Success must be yours...!
#19
The River of Life is a long scenario, it could take a long time to complete unless you conquer very fast with Elves. The River of Life is really the Elves, but the other races demand it! You cannot abide this defilement!
#20
Rocky Hollow is a fun scenario, you may want to try to propose peace with the Frostlings though. Dark Elves and the Orcs will most likely be peaceful and try to overrun you. It is best to gain alot of Caviliers... after that, I think you will not have much trouble.
#21
#22
Toadstool Vale... you and the Dwarves must destroy the evil forces of Orcs and Goblins that have invaded your lands. The land... is rightfully the Halflings, but the Dwarves may see that differently at a later date...
