Spellforce 2 - Faction - Shaikan - Shaikan Humans

Fantasy game art from Spellforce 2, including the Shadow Wars and Dragon Storm expansions.



Created by a mad alchemist's ambitions for power, the Shaikan have become their own people, small in number but proud and able to defend themselves. They are humans in whose veins the blood of dragons flows, containing the germ of life and granting them extraordinary powers. Under the dragon banner, they fight for their future, and even if they are few in number, every one of them is a master of the martial arts.

In bits we learn the history of the Shaikan in Spellforce 2: Shadow Wars -- The alchemist Malacay created this race, and when it threatened to take over the world, the gods intervened. With his dying breath, Malacay escaped his soul into the dragon-blood of the Shaikan.		 Shaikan Human units are special in that they can have additional special abilities through 'training' buildings. Only new units receive training, and for each unit, only one type of training can be applied at any one time. To choose or change a training regimen, resources must be paid.
Trained units mostly use the same model, but have additional special effects on their weapons. Only the Blademaster uses a slightly different unit--Their 'shield' training trades their two-bladed combat staff for a sword and shield.

Here are two characters modified with the AllSkins mod (now included in the unofficial fan patch ). AllSkins Mod version 0.7

The Bard's Tale - Dun Ailinne Treasure Map

Fantasy art from The Bard's Tale fantasy role playing game. This cutscene features dialogue from the Houton blacksmith concerning his treasure map. Although the Bard being scammed is entirely in keeping with the overall tone of the game world, the treasure map was in fact a good one, as Dun Ailinne hides, among other things, the Golden Spyglass, which increases all future treasure finds by 10%.
