Does your AP-OOTM game record a high-score when you finish the original game?

1. Yes, you will see a high score.
2. The scores are separate for each campaign (AP, Defender, Champion, OOTM), but they fall in the same score sheet (which is kinda wrong in my opinion).
3. OOTM, which is a new campaign, provides a new level of AP. You can always play both of those if you wish.

At first i thought that you play OOTM after you finish AP, but that doesnt seem to be the case. Does OOTM just add another continent and extra creatures? Because I thought it was an entirely different campaign altogether , for which you need to finish the original game first.

[DGDobrev]

It adds a new area, new items, new units and a bunch of new things to consider. It looks like an extension to the AP campaign, but it has a different storyline and additional quests and such to solve. It will be interesting to follow it through.

New storyline, you say, but isnt the ending the same as AP? From what i understand, "new storyline" extends only as far as the orcish affairs, and the bigger picture is still the original AP plot.

[DGDobrev]

I think the ending should be the same because I get that feel, but I'd rather not take a wild guess. I'm still level 17 in OOTM, because I was fiddling a lot with champion of the arena campaign, trying it out with each character before I switch to any other.

I'm sure some guys who already played it through will have better insight

[john_crapper]

Would you recommend that OOTM be first run in normal difficulty as to see and experiment with the new content, or do you think that it is similar enough for AP players to start an Impossible game?

[DGDobrev]

Try normal

I did a quick power kiting run before I start the game on impossible. It works just fine, but it requires a lot of tactical thinking and proper map placement. Since I'm familiar with KBAP, I decided to get a quick start to experience everything without much hard time plights at start.
