Let’s Play Myth II: Soulblighter Co-op #20 A Murder of Crows
June 3rd, 2017 by narcogenWe're playing the next of Bungie's famous franchises, the Real Time Tactics fantasy wargame, Myth. Set in a mysterious land of cyclical war and destruction, Myth lets you command a ragtag army in a desperate battle against the forces of the Fallen Lords.
The Summoner eliminated, Soulblighter takes us and the Deceiver prisoner. We must escape!
In this episode we're once again using the high definition tagset, made by Ooga Booga, Renwood and Road. The Myth Myth HD Total Conversion v1.31 provides higher resolution units.
Due to the tireless work of many community members over the years, the Myth engine has been modernized to work on current operating systems, although you'll still need a copy of the game's data files to play. Check Ebay.
For the engine itself as well as texture enhancements, go to Project Magma:
There's also multiplayer metaserver available for competitive carnage:
