This mod is very different from the original Darkside, and indeed from other parts of King's Bounty too. In any case, good luck

Well, here comes my first question:
What level of difficulty do you recommend for a newcomer to DarkSide along your mod? I'm a veteran of the series, though. |

Experience in the Dark Side is not so important, except that sometimes there may be extra running around due to completing quests. Don't forget to read Advices & Tips for the mod. |

Impossible
Many thanks for your hard work!
In impossible: The difficult skyrocket after the Dark Spirit. Snow terrain and a ton of troops make the life of demoness hard :p Tavern as 1k vikings or frozen creatures. I got 1 demon and 2 executioner, if someone got a hint please share. I cannot pass the 2 heroes with a Vamp in impossible. This is not criticism, is my personal experience. Mod work flawless. |
