Lonely Sands

**Version 1_2_2 Now Live**

Lonely Sands is a custom wave defence scenario with heavy influence from Star Craft 2’s Cooperative online component. The basic premise for this Scenario is to defend your allies Wonder from attack waves that come at night, survive 6 nights to be victorious. If the Wonder falls, you lose and have to start over. During the day, you can complete optional objectives to receive powerful buffs to increase your chances of survival. Choose between any of the base games factions as any major god and good luck have fun.

Be sure to play the opening cinematic, that way you will unlock the rest of the scenarios and be able to play as all factions.

Make sure to move this mod to the top of your load order so that nothing is getting overwritten from other mods.

Balance Changes (Only effects this scenario)
– Houses, Manors and Town Centers provide double the pop, this is to compensate for the amount of enemies you will be dealing with.

– Walls and gates cost 50 gold and wood each, this is simply to make the scenario challenging and not just a competition of who can build the biggest castle.

– Tweaked stats of a few other small things to make them more worth while.
