Rampart campaign. Clash of the Dragons is the fourth episode in the Heroes Chronicles. It was sold as a stand-alone game using the Shadow of Death version of the engine, but missing multiplayer and random or custom maps. Chronologically, it happens after Dragon's Blood from Armageddon's Blade.

Backstory[edit | hide | hide all]

When the good Dragons disappear, Tarnum is drawn into an epic battle with Mutare, the Dragon Queen. His greatest struggle, however, will be learning to be human again.

Prologue[edit | hide]

Unnamed male historian: Immortality has a drawback. Loneliness. But Tarnum found friendship with the long-lived dragons. And happiness in the joy they drew from each day. Then, one bleak morning, the dragons disappeared. Gone without explanation. And it was up to Tarnum to find out why.

Heroes[edit | hide]

Strategy[edit | hide]

Ranger Tarnum should easily defeat all enemy forces due to superior campaign progression (making use of the skill bonuses from different maps) and an OP specialty (allows to upgrade archers and elves into much superior Sharpshooters). Use an overwhelming mass of Sharpshooters to shoot down all opposition.
