Denacen Saga
Brought to you by Woad Creations
- Team Project
Features:
- Good plot, you feel for the characters.
- Lots of action
- You walk through a realistic world.
- Different styles of play: RPG and FF
- A big team project, combining the best points of the designers to a great work
- Thoroughly tested
- Partly interactive
- Lots of differing objectives, ranging from Accumulating a relic to er... Zigzaging into an enemy fortress :-)
The story:
It's about a Saxon boy, Denacen, whose father leads the rebellion against Karl the Great (aka Charlemagne). The village Denacen lives in, Drengaderb, gets attacked and razed by the Franks of Karl, everyone killed, except for Denacen, who was only about 5 at the time. He then gets raised by the Franks (he doesn't know it were the Franks who killed his family and friends) and he becomes a loyal soldier of Charlemagne, until some events happen that make him realize he's a Saxon.
He joins the rebellion, but gets stuck in a web of deceit, treason and lies.
Throughout the campaign, you'll meet more and more people, who will remember you as well.
The 3-scenario campaign ends in a devastating city siege, leading through the streets of Aachen to Karl's castle.
The Project:
For us, the creators, this campaign was meant to be fun, yet challenging (I think almost all types of players can find a good challenge in this) and a good way of getting to know each other's skills and talents.
We worked together very well on this project, and it's definately something we should do again.
Perhaps for Empire Earth, or Age of Mythology.
For now, we'll keep working on our own private projects, which are very different, and still explore the posibilities of scenario design.
Hint:
Play this scenario on normal or slow speed.
History:
This campaign is fully fictional.
The only non-fiction, are the following facts:
- Karl's capital was Aachen
- Guillaume was his most trusted advisor, friend and commander
- Karl fought a crusade against the Saxons, and annihilated a big deal of them.

It is one of the best campaigns I've ever played(The stage of duel with The King is very exciting) |

Excellent, only I couldn't finish. I did all the tasks, got back to the purple city and nothing. Zlich.
Edit: Okay, how do you get past the enemy walls, archers, cavalry, more walls and more archers in the ravine?[Edited on 04/15/08 @ 02:52 PM]
