Our take on King Arthur: Fallen Champions
Instead of keeping battles at one scale, the campaign shifts between small tactical encounters with elite units and clashes involving huge armies. That change in battle size sits alongside a mission-by-mission story built around three separate heroes whose quests meet in a final confrontation.
What is King Arthur: Fallen Champions?
This standalone expansion connects the stories of King Arthur and King Arthur II through a campaign in a wild region beyond the Forest of Bedegraine.
Players choose missions and upgrade three heroes: knight Sir Lionel, Sidhe Lady Corrigan, and shaman Drest. Each hero has a separate storyline with three battles, followed by a tenth battle against a major foe. Across nine skirmishes and the final confrontation, battle formats range from small tactical-RPG encounters with a few elite units to large army clashes and battles against a general AI in unusual circumstances. The three quests converge on a shared conflict involving the region’s old gods. The campaign combines adventure quests, hero progression, and battles of different scales.
