Hi guys! We hope you’re wearing goggles as we explore the fierce, snow-kept Wintertide Stronghold in a two-part map-series.
Here’s the second part.
“An overflow of orcs has you backed in a corner. Fellow mercenaries and alliance soldiers attempt to keep the orcs from breaching the defense for minutes, hours, days… it feels as if for every orc that falls, two take its place. Your arms feel heavy, your vision blurred, and your legs sluggish. The blizzard continues to storm while the stronghold goes through a never-ending assault of orcs.
The enemy orcs can feel and taste blood. They know that it’s only a matter of time before we ultimately fall. You are forced to retreat through the towers to the deepest part of the stronghold. Frozen waters, a shipless harbor, barracks, and what little is left of the army’s rations surround you. What seems like the stronghold’s perfect defense is now what is causing your demise. You have nowhere left to run.
The stronghold’s commander, Wayne, is clashing his hammer against the orc’s chieftain’s axe, leaving nearby areas frozen… and destroyed. You have lost count of the time that has passed, and despite using the defensive fortifications available to you, are overrun by a clearly superior number of orcs. You are losing.
Then, finally, in the distance, you see silhouettes of a fleet incoming. Reinforcements must have arrived! But they are struggling to get through the snowstorm! Will you fall before reinforcements arrive…!?”
