Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
 takes the 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
acclaimed fantasy strategy series to new 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
heights; enhancing the series' praised fusion of 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
empire building, role-playing and tactical 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
combat. 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
The reigning Order of Wizards drew upon the 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
forces of creation for their own needs, until their 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
wars awoke a great evil that devastated them.  
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
The remaining mages became despised and 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
hunted, blamed for the darkness that crept 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
across the lands.  Their towers fell one by one, 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
as the Emperor Phobius rose to power under 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
banner of the abolition of magic.  The wrath of 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
the Empire then turned to the ancient races that 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
share the wizards’ magical nature. The drums of 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
war can be heard again, while the shadow 
--- RECORDSEPARATOR ---
grows ever larger.
