Disciples II: Guardians of the Light Ships
Will the good prevail?
Montreal, Canada. June 10, 2003 –
Publisher Strategy First Inc. announced today that the first expansion pack for
Disciples II: Dark Prophecy, Disciples II: Guardians of the Light, has shipped
to retail stores nationwide.
“We are very happy to be giving Disciples fans even more to get excited about,”
said Don McFatridge, President Strategy First Inc. “Guardians of the Light will
have die hard fans coming back for more and will give newcomers to the franchise
a chance to experience the Disciples world we love so much.”
Disciples II: Guardians of the Light is a stand-alone expansion that lets you
dive into the fantastical world of Disciples II as either the Empire or the
Mountain Clans.
In Guardians of the Light, the Empire is decaying from within as self-proclaimed
rulers struggle for control of the now vacant throne while a cruel Inquisition
sweeps across the human lands, causing rebellion and misery. Meanwhile the
Clans, recovering from their near-destruction, begin to reunite their tribes.
They have received divine instructions and now seek to uncover an ancient ritual
that will let them communicate with their god, Wotan.
