There was a story mode, and I wish I remembered more of it.<br /><br />You were a wizard who was in conflict with some other black-aligned wizard who took over the mind of your friend. After being forced to kill your friend your spark ignites, your first (and only) journey being going from Aerona, where the first part of the story took place, to Terisiaire. Along the way you're befriended by Chandra and you fight with Ajani and Garruk (who's already green/black, even though I think the story took place before he was corrupted).<br /><br />I don't think that anything really important to the cannon happened, but it was a cool game and I'm sad it's gone.Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17690871789658124455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1665375410624300606.post-81181386187646222232019-04-06T21:47:25.860+02:002019-04-06T21:47:25.860+02:00Note that you can play most old arcade games on PC...Note that you can play most old arcade games on PC using MAME.Canageekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03770924810559440307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1665375410624300606.post-13146131597030185522019-01-29T21:51:13.471+01:002019-01-29T21:51:13.471+01:00I've added the Handweir Chronicle.

I can tell you about Battlemage...I never played it. I can tell you about Battlemage, though.<br /><br />You choose between 6 of the comic characters and play a RISK-esque game where you take over territories in Corondor. the actual dueling is horrible, but on the game map where you are taking turns to conquer territory, each region of Corondor has a short description, and each one is home to a legend from the cards/comics. Depending on the character you choose, (Leshrec, Kristina, etc) you have 3 unique dialogue choices for each interaction. these can range from 'Carthalion, Where is the blackblade? you must die!" to "Teferi, let's make an alliance to overthrow Ravidel"<br /><br />The actual gameplay is horrible, but there must be over 200 dialogue options in total throughout the game, and there is a teensy amount of character exposition because of this. You might find it interesting.
