Описания сценариев из
Legends of Might and Magic. Большинство из них предоставляет различную дополнительную информацию, касающуюся миров прошлых игр Might and Magic. Первая строчка каждого текста это общее описание карты, другие две - со стороны противоборствующих команд Добра и Зла соответственно.
Rescue at the Ruins"The daughter of a wealthy Merchant King has been kidnapped and is being held captive at a ruined castle deep within the Stonewood Forest."
"The Merchant King Regis is one of the wealthiest people in the land, but there is one thing that matters more to him than money... his daughter, Elise. You are tasked with rescuing the Princess, and if possible, eliminating her captors."
"You were successful in kidnapping the princess, but you know that King Regis is more likely to send a rescue party than to pay a ransom. If you can defeat the rescuers, you will certainly have additional leverage against the King."
Temple of Bark"Deep inside the Temple of Bark lies the ancient Tree of Leesh - the focal point for the energies of that religion. However, it is said that he who destroys the heart of the tree shall permanently gain the powers of Bark for himself."
"Seek the Sword of Canis that is hidden somewhere in the Temple, and carry it to the heart of the Tree of Leesh. Do not let the forces of Evil accomplish this task first, else they wield the powers of Bark for themselves!"
"The forces of Good have entered the Temple seeking to use the Sword of Canis to destroy the Tree of Leesh. You must not let them succeed! Either destroy them, or deliver the Sword yourself and use the powers of Bark to crush them once and for all!"
Blood Feud"Generations after Roland and Archibald struggled for the throne of Enroth, the Ironfist family has again been plunged into a blood war."
"The King's demented brother may have successfully seized Kanan Castle, but he certainly will not be permitted to keep it. The King must reach the throne, even if it means destroying his brother in the process."
"The sneak attack had gone exactly as planned. The King was forced to flee Kanan Castle, but now he returns to challenge his brother. Do not let the King reach the throne room."
Chateau Escape"Baron Von Ungo is known to take frequent extended vacations to his Pleasant Valley chateau. Thinking to finally overthrow the Baron, the forces of Evil have crept onto the grounds of Von Ungo's estate, waiting for the dawn to launch their attack."
"The Baron represents the last defender of Good in the Kingdom. You must see him safely away from the chateau!
"It's a wonder no one ever thought of this plan before now. For years now the Baron, though known for his laziness, has been the only voice becrying the plight of the people. Here is finally your chance to silence him once and for all."
Cult of the Spider"The Evil followers of the Spider Queen have kidnapped the Princess, and plan to use her as their next sacrifice!"
"Enter the compound of the Spider Cult, find where the Princess is being held, and escort her to safety. Beware, the forces of Evil are believed to be working with the Cultists!"
"You have managed to kidnap the Princess, now you must fend off the rescue attempt by the forces of Good. Defeat the rescue party quickly, for the sacrifice ceremony must begin by sundown!"
Dragonblade"The fabled sword, Dragonblade, is rumored to be buried deep within the desert tomb of the Dragon Pharaoh, and the forces of Good and Evil find themselves in a race to recover it."
"The forces of Evil are already inside the tomb, but if they took the wrong path you could certainly reach Dragonblade before they do. Whoever carries the Sword across the threshold of the tomb shall claim victory!"
"You were able to gain entry to the tomb first, but the forces of Good are not far behind. Whoever can carry Dragonblade across the threshold of the tomb shall claim victory!"
The Dragon Slayers"Prophecy speaks of a band of mortals who will slay Aragoth, the ancient Red Dragon and last true enemy of the Dragon Pharaoh of Xeen. Will you be the ones to fulfull this prophecy, or will you merely be Aragoth's next meal?"
"Besides immortality for yourselves, defeating this menace would be a great service to the entire kingdom! If you can not defeat the dragon, you must ensure that the minions of Evil do not claim the prize for themselves."
"The prophecy's promise of immortality is a true lure indeed, but the forces of Good seem to be after the prize themselves. If you can not defeat the dragon first, you must make sure that they can not defeat Aragoth at all."
Dungeon Rescue"Having kidnapped the daughter of King Rydric II, the captors have taken refuge in a long-unused dungeon near the town of Cliffside. The King's forces have tracked the Princess to the town, and now must attempt a rescue!"
"King Rydric has entrusted you with the safe return of his daughter. Enter the dungeon, find the Princess, and bring her to the Cliffside Inn where she will be safe."
"Though you have demanded what you feel is a fair ransom for the Princess, the talk around town is that the King is instead sending a rescue party. Perhaps wiping out these would-be rescuers will persuade the King into seeing things your way."
Dungeons of Dragadune"The once-abandoned Castle Dragadune is now been occupied by the forces of Evil. The King's daughter, Penelope, is being held hostage in Dragadune's dungeon, and it is up to the forces of Good to rescue her."
"Once inside the castle, seek out the detention level and free the Princess. She must safely reach the waiting carriage, but be quick - her captors are due to receive reinforcements, and you must be gone before they arrive."
"You have captured the Princess and sent word of your success to your superiors. They have agreed to send a garrison to help guard her, but you must hold out against a small rescue attempt until your reinforcements arrive."
Fahl'tee Tower"The Royal Princess of Phynaxia is being held hostage in the Tower of Fahl'tee, and the heroes of Good have launched an attack in the hopes of freeing her."
"You must enter the tower, locate the Princess, and see her safely to the stronghold's exit. Beware however, the reward offered for the heads of the Princess's captors have drawn numerous ""independent"" troops to the area."
"The Princess's capture caused quite a commotion. Not only has an organized force attacked in an attempt to rescue her, but several reward hungry mercenaries have become involved as well. Eliminate the forces of Good, and the others will likely abandon the fight."
Forgotten Keep"The forces of Good attempt to overthrow an Evil Warlord by sneaking into his hideout. The Warlord must choose - fight, or flee?"
"You have managed to enter the Warlord's keep through an underground tunnel obviously intended as an escape route. Since it is likely that at least one other exit exists, you must find and kill the Warlord before he can escape."
"Every tyrannical ruler eventually faces an uprising. Invaders have entered through the lower waterway, cutting off one of your two escape routes. You must now either crush these infidels or reach the other exit located behind the dining hall."
The Gauntlet"The annual Sword in the Stone competition draws teams from around the world to vie for the title of Arena Champions. This year brings a special treat, as the final rounds must be played between the forces of Good and Evil."
"Enter the arena, claim the sword, and bring it to the altar at the other end of the maze. Or, you could just be the last team standing."
"Enter the arena, claim the sword, and bring it to the altar at the other end of the maze. Or, you could just be the last team standing."
The Hideout"The daughter of Zealot, King Righteous, has been kidnapped and is being held in the town of Fountain Head for a few days until she can be delivered to King Malefactor, the Zealot family's main rival. However, loyalists of House Zealot have tipped off the King to the Princess's whereabouts!"
"Though no one in Fountain Head has ever seen King Malefactor, it is believed he maintains a summer house there. If so, it is likely where the Princess is being held. Find her and get her to the carriage that will take her back to her father at Castle Whiteshield."
"Your hopes of laying low for a few days fell to pieces when one of your men had too much to drink at a local inn and began bragging about the kidnapping. The King will send a small army to rescue his daughter, and you now must fight them off."
Isle of Fire"Fame, fortune, and rare magical artifacts. Why else would anyone dare to brave the Isle of Fire and challenge a fearsome dragon?"
"You have been sent to slay the dragon and return with his treasure for the glory of your kingdom. Knowing that your enemies seek the dragon's riches for themselves, you must complete your task first or make sure that they can not complete their own objective."
"A dragon's treasure will fill your coffers nicely, not to mention the prestige you would gain from completing such a task. The forces of Good think they can claim the prize first. Your job is to prove them wrong, no matter the cost."
On the Run"After a vicious attack against his castle by the forces of Evil, King Xabran has spent the last several months in hiding. Unfortunately, spies have learned of the King's whereabouts, and a strike force has been dispatched to eliminate Xabran once and for all."
"Your outriders have warned you of the enemy's approach, but King Xabran has nothing more than a handful of bodyguards at his disposal. The King must live to fight another day, either by defeating the invaders or escaping through one of the two exits."
"Though the King was able to escape the siege on Castle Xabran, your months of searching have led you here. Finish the job this time, the King must not be allowed to escape again."
Secrets of the Sphinx"In the Northern Sphinx of Xeen, two groups have come seeking the fabled Scarab Sword, but only one party will be able to leave with it. Will it be yours?"
"King Burlock has sent you to the Northern Sphinx to claim the Scarab Sword, a blade which he intends to use in his next attempt to defeat the forces of Castle Basenji. To be victorious, you must find the sword and escape the Sphinx with it."
"Castle Basenji is once again threatened by the army of King Burlock, but if you can recover the Scarab Sword from the Northern Sphinx you might just be able to turn the tide and lead your forces to victory!"
Spiders' Den"The Evil Warlord seeks the Gate to Another World, and it's up to the forces of Good to stop him!"
"The Evil Warlord, Maximus, seeks a magical Gate that will take him to another world, preferably one that is ripe for conquering. You have managed to set up an ambush for the Warlord, and now must keep him from entering the Gate."
"Maximus has at last discovered the location of the Gate to Another World. All that stands between him and his objective are the ever-present forces of Good, and the denizens of the Temple that you now must invade. The Warlord must reach the Gate!"
Stoneham"While traveling across the countryside, a stop at the city of Stoneham has landed Princess Persephone into the hands of the thieves and bandits who control the city."
"Though the Governor is loyal to the King, it is the crime lords who really run the city. One of them ordered the capture of the Princess when she stopped at the city two nights ago. You must rescue her from a tower on the far side of Stoneham."
"In a bold move, your leader ordered the capture of the Princess, hoping to send a message to the Governor, the King, and the other crime lords that it is he who is the true leader of Stoneham. The final task will be fighting off any rescue attempt."
Sword in the Stone"The Sword of Ungodly Power has been kept within the city of Pierpont for over a hundred years. Today its safety is threatened as two rival groups have arrived to lay claim to it."
"You know that the Sword is kept in the city's main cathedral. You must obtain the sword and escape before the forces of Evil can stop you."
"The Sword you seek is located in the cathedral of St. Pierpont. The simple matter of obtaining the Sword has been complicated by the presence of the forces of Good. You must reach the sword before they do, and escape with it."
Wedding Day"Imprisoned on her wedding day by a jealous Prince, the Princess must now wait for the forces of Good to rescue her."
"The Princess is being kept in a cell at the base of the castle's bell tower. You will have to find a way to break her out, and see her safely to the chapel on the edge of town."
"Having learned that the King has promised his daughter to a wealthy Baron from across the sea, your Prince has locked the Princess in a cell and thrown away the key, giving you orders that she doesn't make it to her wedding, no matter the cost."
А ещё, пожалуй, в списке единорогов не хватает одного создания....
