Download link for SP Version Official Release is available Also, Download link for Gigan's Throne The Duel V1.1 (MP Version) is available Outlier out ... Map Description "There was darkness first ... before there was light." It's the dark times as Nekron the Lord of Death prepares to rule the land. An unholy deal has been struck between the mortal and the DemonGod. Even the mighty King Gigan of the Humans will be imprisoned by the dark lord and left to die in the desolate dungeon ... The only hope of saving this land lies on the shoulder of a young apprentice ... This single player map is a three-part epic depicting the rise of King Gigan. In the first part, it involves solo hero-gaming with a choice of one of three starting heroes. There are many goodies, loads of events and lots of opportunity for training. The second part is typical of AoW2 game play, with an emphasis on resource exploration, army building and speed is of essence. In the last part, it's suitable for strategic maneuvering ... but brute force would work too. This map is best experienced with simultaneous play but classic play would also be possible. It is meant to be for advanced players but should be a good tutorial for beginners and intermediates as well, since it is necessary to be adept at many aspects of AoW2 to win!
