Four asymmetric factions
Take command of the last remnants of humanity, mistical magicians, wild demons inspired by Slavic mythology, or steam-powered lizards. Each faction offers a different gameplay experience, with diverse units, heroes, and unique abilities that defines tactical aspects of the game.
Campaings and story
Dive into the immersive story of the world's end. Lead the heroes of the four captivating campaigns, each dedicated for each faction. Every mission, from the campaigns, is crafted to deliver a different gameplay experience, with distinct challenges.
Hotseat (local multiplayer)

In the near future, online multiplayer will be added as a free update.

Greetings, Lords!
The last presentation and the final faction of this game: Nest.

The people of the Nest are lizards who believe that during the Calamity, they were saved from annihilation by a divine Dragon God. After delivering them from destruction, this Dragon became their ruler their sacred Dragon Emperor.
Symbol of the Nest (above) is the image of the Dragon Emperor himself, depicted as envisioned by the lizard people.
Lore overview
Among the people of the Nest, there is an unshakable belief in the power of their rulerthe Dragon Emperor. It was by his might that they were saved from destruction, and by his wisdom that they achieved the most advanced technology the world has ever seen.

Massive gears, hissing steam, and roaring engines all are inventions of their divine leader. Science and innovation flourish within the empire, where scholars and engineers compete to create ever more powerful devices.
Beyond technology, the Nest is defined by its rigid caste system. A lizards role in society depends entirely on its lineage. Even within the military, a soldiers sub-species determines their function on the battlefield.

The Lizard Empire stands as the most powerful faction at the beginning of the Lords of the Void campaign. Though their laws are strict and merciless, they are undeniably effective, and absolute obedience to the Dragon Emperor fuels both their tireless work ethic and the relentless growth of the state.

To the lizards, all other factions are mere savages. In their eyes, the others lack valuable technology, discipline, and purpose. They are seen as lazy, disorganized. They are only useful as slaves to serve the glory of the Empire.
Campaign hero: Ansa-Ra
[img src=\"https://cdn.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/45443998/1abf5f2836d34957bf31ab994436732853d4f079.png\"][/img]
The Nest lizards don\'t just organize their society by caste. They also pay close attention to lineage.
A family name tied to great scientific discoveries or legendary military deeds earns respect across the empire. Members of such noble bloodlines often find it easier to climb the ranks and secure positions of power.
In the Nest campaign, youll follow the story of Ansa of house Ra. We meet her as she completes her training at the academy. Her ambition? Nothing less than becoming Archlord of the Empire the highest authority within the faction, second only to the Dragon Emperor himself.
But her path wont be easy. Her older brother, Ins-Ra, is also vying for the title. He already holds a prestigious role as the Great Officer, commanding the Empires military forces.
To prove herself, Ansa-Ra must do more than simply follow orders. Shell need to show brilliance, initiative, and tactical prowess. After all, in house Ra, there is no room for the untalented.
Units and heroes
Units:
Crossbowman short, blue-skinned subspecies of lizards is known for its highly developed vision, an evolutionary trait that earned them the role of shooter within the Nests army. Despite their small stature, they are precise, efficient, and deadly at range.
Crossbow lizards come with two unique abilities:
[list]Crippling Shot slows the target, making them easier prey for allied units.
[/*]Acid bolt shot burns the targets Mana and reduces their Efficiency, disrupting both spellcasters and ranged attackers alike.
[/*]
Spearman tall and agile, these green-scaled lizards are known for their impressive stamina and speed. Much like the Order\'s Ftoomans, Spearmen can restrict enemy movement, slowing down any foes who end their turn adjacent to them. Position them wisely to block advances and protect more vulnerable units.
[/*]Alchemist among all the lizards, this subspecies boasts the sharpest minds. While many devote their lives to research far from the battlefield, others take a more active role, becoming Alchemists, battlefield mages who support allies through powerful concoctions.
Alchemists dont cast spells in the traditional sense. Instead, they brew exotic potions to support allied units with temporarily wings, allowing the unit to fly over obstacles. Another elixir emits a protective energy and sets state of Stasis that heavily increases armor of targeted unit.
[/*]Harpooner these huge lizards possess the raw strength needed to wield one of Nest\'s most devastating inventions a heavy harpoon launcher powered by a volatile steam mechanism. This remarkable piece of engineering was personally designed by the Dragon Emperor himself, and it transforms brute force into deadly precision.\n\nThe Harpooner stands out as the most Efficient ranged unit in the game. Thanks to their advanced weaponry, their attacks suffer no damage falloff, hitting with full power at every range.
[/*]Wyrm a venomous, winged serpents were once doomed to extinction, twisted victims of a cruel mutation. Their fate changed when the Dragon Emperor intervened, using one of his arcane inventions to preserve their lives and repurpose them for war.
In the Nests army, Wyrms serve as slow-moving flying units that excel at poisoning enemies with attacks. Once per battle, a Wyrm can unleash a devastating acid breath, dealing area damage.
[/*]Units in total: 2 Shooters, 2 Warriors and 1 Magician.
All Nest\'s unit has hitpoints regenerations, a passive ability that restores small amount of hitpoints an the beginning of every action.
