Greetings & Welcome,

As I toil in my dungeon of design I near completion of a new Ruler for Shadow Wars, the "Javok Empire".  This empire of doom is controlled by the lich king, "Vrayax". Which some of you may recall from various spells and story text through out the main game. No my friends, this isn't your standard ruler or race as his dark minions include: Goblins, Orcs, Ghouls, Ogres, Undead Knights, Trolls, Cyclops, Werewolves and a vile acid spewing Black Dragon. This ravenous legion of chaos has various new abilities, such as: Advanced Regeneration, Lycanthropy, a Sapper ability to damage locations, plus bonuses against Undead and Dwarves.

I'd like to spotlight a very interesting Javok building. Just when I thought my game wasn't quite evil enough, I create... the "Slaughter House".  A quaint little cottage of death and destruction.  As if the building weren't disturbing enough, let me point out that this horrid location of carnage acts similar in function as a "Granary" for the other races.  But, with one little twist... Muuuaaahhahahahaaa!!!

"I can only wonder what they do with all that ogre and troll tripe left over from the sacrifices.  The world may never know......"

The next newsletter will spotlight my finalized efforts on full customization rules.  This rule set will allow you to mix and match rulers, units, buildings and spells, plus create your own from scratch!
