General Description
Time for centuries no one in Ashan knew about them,but they're very old,older than the elemental dragons,old as the primordial dragons..."Before the elemental dragons,before Asha and Urgash,there was the Void...so much power in nothing...it created the primordial dragons and us...we aren't the creations of Asha or Urgash...but the creations of the same Void...of nothing...". In the darkness of the catacombs decorated with the bones of thousands of killed enemies,dead members of the void and the relics of the greatest leaders of the Void Order.Some of them are true creations of the void,creatures with a nightmarish appearance,humanoids with knowledge and wisdom that not even the greatest mages of Asha or elemental dragons even reached.Some even had a soul,but after death they renegaded Asha and joined to the Order of the Void.A powerful magic,forbidden in Ashan,the power of the Void itself,that can create ruptures in time and space is known by the Order of the Void.Their main objective is to eliminate the elemental dragons and creating a new cosmic balance,considering that this is their legacy from the Void.
Order of the Void
"The sixteen controllers of the Void,eight Oblivion Marshals and eight Reavers(all heroes of this faction), united into the depths of the earth and created the catacombs in the name of the True Power of the Void...and then formed an order which has such a great power taken from the Void itself,that even the Elemental Dragons are afraid of it...Order of the Void controls the underground catacombs and the depths of the Ashan...and it's just a matter of time until the surface of Ashan and the whole cosmic powers will be under their control...Majority of them are True Descends of the Void,with some exception which proved that they are superior to their race and renegaded that they are creation of the elemental dragons,pushing their racial limits and reach to control the the Power of the Void...These which founded the Order of The Void are: Rat-Khall,the Might of the Shadows, Skinneth,the Grand Knight of the Abyss,Deeah-Knee,the Banshee of the Deeps,Akent,the Chosen of the Heavens,Axis,the Eye of the Devil,Straker,the Grave Veteran,Hertha-Nahe,the Widow of the Anguish,Fek-Arion,the cave wanderer,(Oblivion Marshals) and Asinius,the Black Star,Sandro,the Death Lord,Velliona,the Voice of the Void,Nigg-Hath,the Void Master,Shullner,the conjurer of souls,Abudulah,the bringer of eclipse,Y'ghann,the astral walker and Nith-lak,the illuminated(Reavers)
The Catacombs
Build by the Void Order in the depths of Ashan,the Sinister Catacombs are the Impenetrable Citadel of the Void Servants and Controllers.The dark,long and narrow corridors serve as barriers for outsiders and passages between halls for these which embrace the void...The Catacombs are decorated with bones that forms a morbid decoration whose objective is to destroy the morale of these enough brave to enter here...but a few outsiders have the chance to see these horrifying corridors before they die...no long will pass until they will fall under the True Power of the Void. Catacombs are formed from narrow corridors that serves as passages between giant underground halls.The corridors are easy to defend and can be blocked in order to protect the central rooms.The central rooms are spherical and very tall,they can have more levels or floors,central rooms can be dug or inhabited natural caves that are connected with one or more corridors.The Void Order and the entirely Catacombs factions is in an active war with all other kingdoms/factions of the Ashan,considering to be enemies because they worship the Elemental Dragons.The well guarded Catacombs were never invaded,the highest success of the "Elemental Dragons Spawns" was that when they entered in the first central chamber under borders of Heresh,but no one get out alive from there,they were killed to the last soldier.Void Controllers were more successful in military campaigns and even successfully invaded the capital of an important faction.
History
*In the Catacombs history years and ages aren't exactly recorded.*
Genesis
Before Elemental Dragons,before the universe,there was nothing,there was the Void.Then from nothing the first particle appeared...the Prime Void Descend...and the primordial egg.The Prime Void Descend was released on a fiery stone...channeling the Void Power,it got colder and it created the planet that we are today,then under its surface founded the corridors that are now the Catacombs...The Primordial Dragons did NOTHING!They just broke that egg and started to scratch each-others eyes and then they just claimed the planet!But what they didn't know...not only their creations evolved...in the depths the Void's descends started the developing of the most powerful faction that not even the elemenatl Dragons will stand against it!
Birth of the Void Order
The sixteen controllers of the Void,eight Oblivion Marshals and eight Reavers, united into the depths of the earth and created the catacombs in the name of the True Power of the Void...and then formed an order which has such a great power taken from the Void itself,that even the Elemental Dragons are afraid of it...Order of the Void controls the underground catacombs and the depths of the Ashan...and it's just a matter of time until the surface of Ashan and the whole cosmic powers will be under their control.The Void Control is officially classified by the order in three affiliations:Matter Destruction,Necrology and Energies Manipulation.
Unleashing of the Behemoth
The Sar-Elam becomes the seventh dragon,this is not good news for the Void Order.This is time to strike before their location is revealed and get attacked by outsiders.The sixteen Void Controllers reunite in the Shadow-Gate to plan an attack against surface dwellers,to exterminate them or at least to keep them busy for a while,until the Catacombs are reinforced.The Void Controllers decided to summon one of the greatest nightmares from another plane directly on the surface of Ashan to deal with the elemental dragons and their servants.Tens of Necrologists,Mages and Summoners from the Shadow-Gate lead by the Reavers and Oblivion Marshals make one of the biggest experiments that Ashan ever seen.During the days of the summoning the Ashan was shaken by earthquakes and the experiments reaches its objectives...An half-decayed gargantuanic beast,covered in blood and black fur,large white spots made from fungi were covering a small part of its back.Its horned head was ugly enough to make all Ashan to tremble in fear,its mouth had giant sharp teeth.Its breath infected air.Deadly and unstoppable,that was the Behemoth.Time for a century this cursed creature,roamed free through the world destroying entirely kingdom,bringing only death and destruction.The Elemental Dragons needed to deal themselves with this nightmarish creature,leading the armies of elves and humans,the dragons successfully defeated temporary the Behemoth,but with the cost of a part of their power.Even if the Ashan dweller thought that all is over,but the Void Controllers gained the needed time.
The Winter of the Plague
The behemoth was destroyed three centuries ago,but the Void Controllers and the Catacombs are more powerful than ever,now is time to weaken the enemy.Shulnner,the collector of souls,one of the mighty Reavers from the Catacombs developed more experiments on corpses,growing terrible bacterias,capable of poisoning outsiders.After years of experimenting,the bacterias were released on the surface.Hundreds of years the Ashan was decimated by a terrible plague.Killing millions of people and weakening drastically the outsiders defense.Lots died,but not all of them stayed dead.The plague mutated some of victims into something else,something horrible,transformed them into ghasts,terrible undead that lost their humanity,savage and merciless killers that feed on living flesh.These undeads added a large numbers of victim to the plague.The enemies are drastically weakened,the Void Armies proceed to the next step.
Allies between Enemies:Founding the Surface Order
The Void Controllers need external agents to spy the surface,to see which plans have the outsiders,to prevent external attack or at least to prepare for them.As the enemies are weaker now after the plague,it is the time to make allies in the enemies lines now,when the outsiders authorities are concentrated on the plague.Several nobles and Mercenary Clans are converted and bribed with gold,precious stones and most importantly,a cure that can heal the plague.Some of them accept,some of them don't and are destroyed.There are several conditions,to keep their loyalty to Void secret and to keep the cure only for themselves.Of course other citizens observe the strange "immunity" to plague of these loyal to Void.In short time the Surface Order gain much political power in several kingdoms.
The Retribution of the BEHEMOTH(The main topic of the Catacombs campaign)
It is the time for a frontal attack,it is the time to use all that Void Controllers learned in the past,it is time to strike with all weapons!The Behemoth must return,it must be resurrected.Now the Void Armies will not do the same mistake,the plague must be released again,the new allies must be used and the Behemoth must return,all of them in the same time and followed by an huge army of the Void forces.It's the Eclipse time,let the demons to take the north,they will deal with the rest,the Void armies will take the Spider's priests,Light Elves and the Holy Empire.Three Catacombs heroes will get the three relics of the Behemoth:Its head,its heart and its claw.Akent,the chosen of the Heavens, will go for Beheomoth's heart at the borders of Irollan.Sandro,the lord of death,will go to the haunted valley of Heresh to get the Behemoth's claw and Nigg-Hath will go into the Holy Griffin Empire to search the Behemoth's Head,after the all will meet in the same place and resurrect the Behemoth.And then the final battle...
______________________________________________________________________
Racial Ability:Void Control
Something that mortals can't even imagine,a powerful magic that can be understand just be the Order of the Void,so powerful that even the elemental dragons are afraid of it.The true power of the Void would destroy a normal dweller of Ashan,be it human,dwarf,elf,orc or something else,be it a great mage or a peasant...only the direct Descends of the True Void can control and understand it.Only one single case of an undead human that could control entirely the True Power of the Void and became member of the High Council,Sandro of Heresh,once a necromancer of Asha,but he wanted more,considering that Asha uses them as toys making him incapable to govern the elements at the highest scale,the Void opened his mind.Demonstrating that he is powerful as,if not more powerful than an elemental dragon Sandro reached broke the barrier of the reality and reached to control the True Power of the Void as the Direct Descends of The Void.Still no "true" mortal reached so high limits to control at least a small piece of the Power of The Void....Hero use Void Energy to cast special Void Spells,because these incantations aren't exactly magics,magic resistances,anti-magic,dispel,purge may not work(have only 1/4 chances to block/cure a void specific spell).Void Energy isn't exactly as mana and effects/spells that drain/increase or decrease(the cost) mana won't work.Void Energy can't be used for casting normal mana(a hero with 0 mana and,can cast Void Spells if (s)he have Void Energy left and a hero with 0 Void Energy can cast normal spells if (s)he have mana left).At Catacombs' heroes every knowledge point increase also max Void Energy by 5.Consumed Void Energy is regenerated every day and a day spent in a catacomb town will restore Void Energy to its max.
Basic Void Control:Add +100 max Void energy and allows to learn 2 spells from the 1st and 2nd Void Circle
Advance Void Control:Add +50 max Void energy and allows to learn 2 spells from the 3rd Void Circle
Expert Void Control:Add +150 max Void energy and allows to learn 2 spells from the 4th Void Circle
Ultimate Void Control:Add +200 max Void energy and allows to learn 1 spell from the Ultimate Void Circle
Void Control have three affiliations.Every Catacomb Hero can chose only one from these three affiliations:

Reavers are these which control the Void Power,which have limitless powers...Reavers are members of the High Council and use the True Void Power at high scales and try to use it to establish a New Cosmic Balance...Not even the reavers can control the Supreme Void Power at the highest scale completly,it's endless and simply impossible...

They try to master the ultimate knowledge,but they can't understand the Void, their power is limited to matter...they can't draw the knowledge from Void and simply call it nothing..."
-Sandro,the Death Lord
The Elves-"Elves are too ignorant to see the highest power...Light Elves can't see beyond their forests,beyond their normal lifestyle...little magic knowledge is enough for them...and they worship an elemental dragon,Sylvanna,enslaved by an elemental dragon made from boulders...while dark elves are controlled by temptation,they are basic Light Elves guided by lust...worshiping an elemental dragon...the both will fall with their dragons in the endless abyss of void..."
-Nigg-Hath,the Void Master
The Humans-"Fool mortals,guided by a false sentiment of glory which drown them in their own blood...They can't see beyond the life,the death means the end of their insignificant lives,they can't even dream the True Power...they think that they are good,that they are honorable...but they are too blind to see the blood behind them...they believe in an elemental dragon,Elrath, and worship the light...but they don't know that even the light is suck into the Void..."
-Nigg-Hath,the Void Master

-Sandro,the Death Lord
Demons of Sheogh-"They just know how to destroy,they don't have a higher objective...burn and destroy anything...that's the only thing that they can do...but they don't know that the Void has its own demons...and they are worse...capable of creating chaos that would destroy everything...even us..."

-Nigg-Hath,the Void Master
Orcs-"Mindless brutes...they use just their limited physical strength...they don't know to control even the basic magic...the True Power of the Void is something that they can't even pronounce..."

CORE
Hatsvar
Not only the elemental dragons created races...the Void did the same...but the Void creations are more horrid than that elemental dragons created...one of the horrible spawns of the Void is the Hatsvar,a small but cunning creature,without eyes,that is guided only by the rotten smell of dead flesh...and sometimes even fresh blood.Hatsvar have horrible tentacles around their small mouths,that are used to grab food,and sometimes are used to protect themselves against their enemies.The horrid Hatsvar is a scavenger,eating usually corpses,but they never refuse living flesh,usually staying and feeding in large groups to intimidate predators bigger than them,sometimes these groups of Hatsvars enters in a blood frenzy and start hunting large prays.In the catacombs there are enough of these horrid creatures to assemble large armies,female Hatsvars usually have 37-100 eggs once,however these creatures aren't friendly with other kinds than their own,but as any spawn of the void they feel the Void Power and can be controlled using it,but outsiders that aren't capable of using the Void Power will be considered not more than simple food.

The cold rivers of the underground mutated the Hatsvar into something powerful...The Hatsvar that live in the ice-cold rivers of the underground claws gained resistance to cold and can survive at temperatures that would freeze the blood and cause the instant death of a normal human.Their skin is much more tougher than that of their lesser cousins,the normal Hatsvars.As the rest of Hatsvar species,they have tentacles around their mouth and generally eat corpses,but unlike normal Hatsvars,Frozen Hatsvars have sharp claws used to cut the flesh of corpses and living prays or enemies.They also hunt and live in large groups,but they can also stay under water,to avoid the uninvited guests that come to take their food,they drag the corpse in the ice-cold water,which have also the effect of keeping the meat fresh a long-time.Frozen Hatsvars have also a cold breath that they use to freeze their enemies in order to slow them down.

Dwelling:Endless Abyss of Void
Grotesque
Death is in the air,the smell of rotten flesh is everywhere,it can even kill,this smell is so powerful...but in fact I like this smell.The grotesques are abominations made from dead flesh on the fresh battlefields by the mad-minds of the Reavers and Oblivion Marshals.Grotesques are made from about 3-4 corpses,and in this process the casters make like corpses to explode and after,the mass of gore is united into an abomination of flesh,blood and bones.The process of rotting is slowed to keep the flesh fresh and like this monster to be an excellent slaughterer.Between the flesh and blood,grotesques also contain the bones of the corpses,around a couple of skulls,lots ribs and some bone limbs,but also some bone claws used to kill the enemies.Grotesques can use parts of their own body as projectiles.These abominations will annex the living beings which they killed to their own bodies,making them even deadlier and bigger than before.
Small Creature:Occupy just 1 square/hex on the battlefield

Seems like a good faction, but even from the short descriptions it looks a bit strong... Still, I find it interesting how, though it looks like an undead themed town, it is actually based on the void-faceless type creatures.

Yeah in the 18th century, two inventions suggested a method of measurement. One won and the other stayed in America.

CAMPAIGN:THE RETRIBUTION OF THE BEHEMOTH
It is the time for a frontal attack,it is the time to use all that Void Controllers learned in the past,it is time to strike with all weapons!The Behemoth must return,it must be resurrected.Now the Void Armies will not do the same mistake,the plague must be released again,the new allies must be used and the Behemoth must return,all of them in the same time and followed by an huge army of the Void forces.It's the Eclipse time,let the demons to take the north,they will deal with the rest,the Void armies will take the Spider's priests,Light Elves and the Holy Empire.Three Catacombs heroes will get the three relics of the Behemoth:Its skull , its heart and its eye.Akent,the chosen of the Heavens, will go for Beheomoth's heart at the borders of Irollan.Sandro,the lord of death,will go to the haunted valley of Heresh to get the Behemoth's eye and Nigg-Hath will go into the Holy Griffin Empire to search the Behemoth's skull,after the all will meet in the same place and resurrect the Behemoth.And then the final battle...
Campaign Heroes
Nigg-Hath
One of the oldest and influent member of the Void Order.Nigg-Hath is one of the founders of the catacombs and a very skilled void controller.He helped at summoning of the Behemoth first time,there are rumors that there were more attempts of resurrecting the behemoth in the past,but are just rumors.Some says that Nigg-Hath was the first Void Contorller,but he never denied or confirmed it however.Now Nigg-Hath with the help of Sandro and Akent will try to resurrect the behemoth.
Specialty:Void Master
A very respected and powerful member of the Void order thanks to his mastery in Void Control.Nigg-Hath's void spells that are affiliated to "Matter Destruction" will deal 10%+1% per hero lvl more damage.
Affiliation:
Sandro
Sandro origins as living human are unknown.He's the only case of an undead human that could control entirely the True Power of the Void and became member of the High Council,Sandro of Heresh,once a necromancer of Asha,but he wanted more,considering that Asha uses them as toys making him incapable to govern the elements at the highest scale,the Void opened his mind.Demonstrating that he is powerful as,if not more powerful than an elemental dragon Sandro reached broke the barrier of the reality and reached to control the True Power of the Void as the Direct Descends of The Void.Because he was exiled from Heresh because of his anti-Asha propaganda,Sandro wants revenge and think that the Behemoth will help to do this.
Specialty:Death Lord
Sandro was a necromancer in Heresh and studied the art of dead for centuries.In the catacombs he mastered even more in this art.Sandro is able to resurrect 10%+5%(for every 3 hero levels) combat casualties as Resurrected Horde.If there is no room in the army,Sandro will resurrect Grotesques or Silent Assassins,but they will be much less.
Affiliation:
Akent
Unlike the other Void Controllers,Akent believe that there is another Astral Plane above us that governs all the energies in this plane.Akent doesn't negate the supremacy of the Void Power,but he thinks that there is an hidden entity that controls all energies,an holy entity.
Specialty:Angelic Pact
Akent made a pact with a powerful entity,he calls the entity and Angel,but something different than the Elrath's Celestials.His face is covered with a hood and his wings are made of pure energy(something like Tyrael or Hadirel from D2). The Entity is peaceful and he says that he won't spill blood and won't interfere directly with this plane,but instead he gives Akent's troops powerful blessings.
The Angel Gabriel has the following stats and abilities:
Peaceful:Gabriel doesn't interfere directly in this world,he don't deal damage and nothing can damage he
Support Unit:if Akent's troops are killed and he remains only with Gabriel and/or war machines he lose the combat
Blessings:Every turn,Gabriel will cast a random bless from his blessings list

Resurrected Horde*Core*
The remains of a warrior that died in battle resurrected by an necrologist.The rusty weapon of the resurrected warrior is not as good as a new sharp sword,but the rust once entered into the veins of a living creature can produce diseases.The old armor that was cut by swords,crushed by maces and stabbed by arrows is still good and if it survived so many hits means that is a resistant armor.Maybe resurrected hordes aren't as good,professional and skilled as silverbone assassins,executioners and knights,but are more numerous.
Small Creature:Occupy just 1 square/hex on the battlefield
Undead-this creature lived ages ago and now is a lifeless corpse animated by a powerful magic.Because it isn't living anymore,it is restless,not care about hunger or thirst,poison can affect it and minds spells won't work on a lifeless carcass.They don't fear of death,but also glory will not bound any happiness in this corpse,so their morale is always neutral.
Skeletal-My quiver was empty,but it wasn't injuried"-that said an experienced archer after fighting against Void armies.The arrows will just fly between the bones of these creatures,often missing important parts.Even the most experienced archers can miss with ease the skeletal body of this creature.It receives only 25% damage from ranged attacks.
Rusty Weapon:-a rusty weapon is not as good as a new sharp one,but the rust once entered into the veins of a living creature can produce diseases.There are 35% chances like at hit the resurrected horde will infect the enemy,the diseases stack will receive damage every turn time of 3 turns.

Savage and Uncontrollable-if the hero is not a necromancer or a Void Controller,the stack(s) of ghasts is uncontrollable and suffers from frenzy,but it may not attack your creatures
Diseasing-Ghasts infect the blood of these which they bite or scratch,because they're bearers of a terrible disease,that is also very contagious.There are 80% chances that after attacking living stacks to infect them.The infected stacks hp is reduced by 10% and they suffer damage every turn time for 6 turns.
Spearing the Plague-Ghasts' disease is very contagious and can be easily speared.After combat,20% up to 80% of the casualties are raised as Ghasts.Both if a hero controls the ghasts or a neutral stack defeats an player/AI controlled army.

Blow of the Behemoth:"So big that a hit of its claw would throw a whole regiment miles away..."-The Behemoth can throw with an enemy stack over another enemy stack.Both stacks suffer massive damage and the stack who was hit is pushed 4 squares/hexes back,while the stack who was threw takes the place of the other stack.

CAMPAIGN:THE RETRIBUTION OF THE BEHEMOTH
1.Heart of the Beast
Fearing that the Behemoth will return and the Elemental Dragons are seriously weakened after the fight and wouldn't stop the Behemoth the second time,the Asha's followers speared the Behemoth's relics in three different regions of Ashan.Its heart is kept and guarded non-stop in the Golden Reliquary at the borders of Irollan and Griffin Empire.Akent's mission is to recover the heart from the golden reliquary,but it won't be easy as the reliquary is guarded.Akent take a small army from the Shadow-Gate but he will need to use his diplomat skills and the angel Gabriel to convert locals to join Void's Forces.The rest must be killed otherwise they will call the armies of Irollan and Griffin Empire and this will make the situation harder.Akent must try to recruit as many Void External Soldiers and Mages to can attack the holy reliquary and to recover the Heart of the Behemoth.The map is half forest(Irollan) and the other half have less forest and is more field.Akent starts in the south of the map between Irollan and Griffin Empire,exactly at border.There is only one Catacombs town(your base) on the map,you can't build Pit of Suffering in it.In rest on the map are 4 Sylvan towns and 3 Haven towns.Akent can transform foreign towns into Void Outposts(they still have the economical buildings) where you can recruit Void External Soldiers and Void External Mages,even if you can't recruit stronger creatures here,but they have very high growth,with Castle they can reach 45 growth.Akent have diplomacy skill so you can make an very powerful army with minimal costs.After you defeat your both enemies,you can concentrate on attacking the reliquary.It is a big golden structure you can't miss it.Be sure you have a big army.After you enter in the reliquary there is the final scenario battle.You have to fight a large army of vestals and celestials.If you managed to prepare a big army you will not have trouble defeating them.
Akent's skills,spells and artifacts will be transfered to the final scenario.
2.Retribution of the Death
The Eye of the Behemoth was hidden in the haunted valley of Heresh in the ancient Temple of the Spider Goddess,guarded by the Avatar of Asha and her servants.Sandro was the best candidate for this quest,he was a necromancer there and wants revenge.Sandro will use death to fight death and the objective is to make his way to the Temple of the Spider Goddess in the center of Heresh.As the Spider Priests are seriously weakened after the War of the Broken staff,Sandro won't have big problems in Heresh.Also,Sandro have old allies there,that share his ideology and are anti-Asha supremacy,they will sure help Sandro in his quest.Silverbone Order and the loyal guard of Sandro,Death Guards will play an important role in the Invasion of Heresh along with the living masses of gore,known as Grotesques.You begin at the entrance in the haunted valley of Heresh,Sandro starts with an substantial army of Silverbone Assassins and Executioners,Death Guards,Grotesques,Horrors and Silverbone Knights.Spider Goddess' Necropolises aren't something Sandro can trust,but instead he can use the Cloak of the Undead King to corrupe them,the transformed Necropolises looks like Catacombs town,but instead of the normal creatures here you can recruit:
Ghasts(core)
Resurrected Hordes(core)
Grotesques,Horrors and Carnages(core) Carnages have decreased growth,you can recruit here both Horrors and Carnages(recruited from different buildings here)
Silverbone Assassins,Silverbne Executioners and Silverbone Knights)elite) Silverbone Knights have decreased growth,you can recruit here both ]Silverbone Assassins and Silverbone Knights (recruited from different buildings here)
Death Guards(elite)
Because there is one elite and champion creature missing,the Void Necropolis compensate with bigger growth rates and also let you recruiting Grail upgrades without grail(but you still need to build another structure,different from the normal basic and upgrade). Look above to see information about campaign's and faction's creatures.
The first task is to raise the Dracolich,but better take care of your enemy first.To raise it you need to make at least 1000 kills,no matter which creature.Then find the Cloak of the Undead King and the Armor of the Damned(they Armor was stolen from Sandro when he was exiled,the cloak Sandro starts with it),these two artifacts are heavily,but Sandro's specialty to raise Resurrected Hordes and the substantial army which you start it will help a lot.The Temple of the Spider Goddess Asha is located in a canyon.Better to don't rush at it,make sure you have a huge army because you will need it for the final fight.Once you have gathered an large army,you can enter in temple.Here you will have to fight with the Avatar of the Spider Goddess Asha and 2 large stacks of fate weavers.If you gathered a large army you will not have trouble defeating them,don't forget you have also the Dracolich.
Sandro's skills,spells and artifacts will be transfered to the final scenario.
3.Plague March to the Falconguard
The Skull of the Behemoth was buried under the capitol of the Falconguard,in the heart of the Griffin Empire and of the enemy territory.Nigg-Hath's quest is to walk in the middle of the enemy territory to traverse the lands of the griffin empire and burn any city or fortress that stays in its way,then to break the walls of the Falconguard and then to blow up the capitol and dig for the skull.One thing is sure,it won't be easy.He needs to weaken drastically the enemies,the answer is plague of Shullner,a terrible deadly disease,very contagious and those which are killed by it return to life as ghasts,terrible undeads that feed on living flesh and blood.This will weaken a lot the enemy.Even if ghasts aren't organised,wild and doesn't are so powerful,they're numerous,so dangerous and may be an obstacle,for that Nigg-Hath have the Coat of Decay,if the coat is soaked in the blood of five hundreds ghasts,it will give the power to the owner to control the ghasts.But also with the plague to break the walls of the Falconguard will be hard,so Nigg-Hath hired the best smiths and engineers of the Void Forces to build an incredible siege weapon,a huge cannon,the Sudden Death Cannon.It will break the walls of Falconguard easily.
First of all the map is FULL with ghasts,it won't be a big problem to kill 500,Nigg-Hath will start with a good army and with the Sudden Death Cannon(see above in the campaign's creature list for more details about Sudden Death Cannon). After that ghasts will be more likely to join,but they won't always do this.Even in the middle of the Falconguard you have allies,nobles that share your Void ideology will let you to recruit soldiers from their manors and domains,on the map there are more Void Outposts,were your enemy can't enter,the nobles will be loyal to you as long as you also provide a cure(you don't need to get an artifact or to pay for cure,Nigg-Hath already know it). You can also corrupt conquered cities into Void Outposts(they still have the economical buildings) where you can recruit Void External Soldiers and Void External Mages,even if you can't recruit stronger creatures here,but they have very high growth,with Castle they can reach 45 growth.You can even ignore your enemy,they will be very busy with killing hundreds of ghasts before reaching you.Head to the Falconguard,an Haven town,the capital.Be sure to gather and large army of Void-Out Soldiers,Void-Out Mages and Ghasts before attacking Falconguard,you will have to fight an army of haven creature here.Sudden Death Cannon will take care of walls and towers,also it can kill a large part of the creatures defending Falconguard.
Nigg-Hath's skills,spells and artifacts will be transfered to the final scenario.
4.The Resurrection of the Behemoth
Now that all the relics of the Behemoths have been collected,they must be united and a resurrection ritual must be done.Nigg-Hath,Sandro and Akent will meet to do the Resurrection of the Behemoth in the Ertum Canyon.This scenario is a piece of cake,but the final battle is the apogee of the campaign,a hard battle with high numbers.In the scenario,all heroes will start in a different corner of the map and will need to get into the canyon located in the middle of the map.They have huge armies and it will be easy to get to the canyon.
And now the FINAL BATTLE. The ritual made an energetic disequilibrium,that even the elemental dragons fell,Elrath himself gathered an army of the Griffin Empire,and Sylanna did the same with the Irollan's elves.The Forces of Void will battle with the forces of Elrath and Sylanna!This will be an epic battle,the battlefield is four times bigger than the normal one,three heroes in combat.You will benefit from Sudden Death cannon,Akent's angel,Gabriel,the Dracolich and the Behemoth itself.You also have three heroes and benefit from every affiliation of the Void.The armies are:

Three heroes,three affiliations,they also have expert magic schools.So you can adopt any style you want.The best to fight with glories is that to lure them to fight with Silverbones,they will benefit from light damage and conjure it as shield.All heroes have level 50,so all your troops will benefit from Gabriel's mass blessings.You also get spells that can't be accessed in normal games:Nigg-Hath can mark a stack with plague,it will be weaker and after its death will raise as Ghasts.Sandro can raise Resurrected Hordes directly on the battlefield,also there is an effect with 5 turns countdown,all your creatures will use the warcry:"For the Void",the non-humanoid creatures will just roar,but the effect will make the morale of your enemies negative.Beware of the Dragon bosses,try summoning Black Hole directly on Erlath or on the enemy lines,it will do a lot of damage.Also you can cast the spell "Stop the time" once per battle,after the spell is triggered all enemy troops will freeze and only your creatures can move or attack,it lasts one turn,try using it also to move your troops in a tactical position or around the enemy stack you want to kill.Use first death call with Sandro,it will kill 50% from the enemy stack first time,try using it on the most annoying or numerous stack.Profit a lot from your creatures effects.It will be sure a loooooooooong fight...
But the victory is worth,Elrath and Sylanna retreats and the Void Forces can take the Ashan,or the other dragons will attack the Void Forces?This time was a victory,a great victory but there will be more fights,Elrath and Sylanna may return,or they were so scared by the Forces of the Void and forgot about their worshipers?The Void awaits them with an army bigger than the last time.The Griffin Empire feel and the other kingdoms will do the same.Nigg-Hath,Sandro and Akent gained elemental power and master the Supreme Power of the Void,soon other reavers and oblivion marshals will follow their example and start to fight the other elemental dragons!The Era of Dragons is over.THE VOID WILL RULE ALL

So the whole "elemental dragons fearing the Void" thing... Does that mean basic spellcasters of the Void can troll elemental dragons?

Well,Abyss spellcasters control only a small part from the Void,the Void itself is endless and its power is unlimited.Elemental Dragons are fearing the Void itself,but some good void controllers can be a real threat even for the elemental dragons.

Void magic? Hatred for the dragon gods? Cosmic balance? Soul collectors?

So, feedback time for the catacombs
As usual, first general feedbacks:
-All necessary info is in, I would consider this faction complete enough to judge it.
-seems a bit of another "(over)mighty enemy from a 'different plane', trying to destroy/refound/conquer the world" to me...not necessary a downer in scores!
and for single things:
-History is nicely detailed and fitting.
-The campaign-preview looks pretty nice!
-the racial...I do not think specific magic schools are so creative. Yet this one seems, for such an, rather interesting.
-hero classes look fine so far
-faction relations are fine as well (though here again the role of the void as "enemy to all" comes in
-special buildings are fine
-units...strange names (which does not decrease points )
--Hatsvars...I like them. they seem very fitting, story- and abuilitywise
--Grotesques...not that creative imo. but I like some of it. "Throwing Flesh" is awesome the grail upgrade is quite nice as well!
--Lurkers...Dimension WOrms?! slightly amusing in my eyes but I seee they can be a usefull and annoying creature.
--Silverbones... so far, I liek thte skeleton assassins
--Scorcerors. Fine caster, as far as a first glance gives me.
--Xerrador...Cerberus meets Hydra?^^ not my taste, though fitting into the void.
--Chaosbringer...not mcuh to say yet...
