Description
The Bastard of Kosigan modules are set in an alternative medieval Europe�but one with lots of fantasy inside� They�re set in the XIIIth century, but a XIIIth Century where you can still find old elven cities in the depths of ancient forests and dwarven kingdoms hidden in the northeastern part of Germany... The Inquisition of the Holy Roman Church is hunting down magic users and a New World is about to born... But the forces of the Old World, with its magic and its legendary creatures, are still there...trying to survive.
Revelations and Blood and Tears are episodes 3 and 4 in the Bastard of Kosigan series. It�s possible to play them even if you haven�t played the previous episodes (Exile of the West and The Bastard of Kosigan), but you�ll miss out on a lot of choices, options, information and fun! The previous modules have placeholders that carry over to these modules, based on the choices you made.
In this mod your character will learn much about his own family past and will have to defend Kosigan against the french invaders.
BY THE WAY: here is a series of 4 portraits you can use for your Bastard character! :)

er, nevermind, I didn't notice there's an area transition, I assume, heading back to Kerbuck.

It's charming to see a series incorporate real life history and not come off as weird. It's just annoying to have to reload back to before the big ogres fight just because I didn't pick up the shovel from the village..and I don't know what exact command to use to spawn it. Sorry, I hate nitpicking like this when I've liked so much about it so far, it's just..ugh :(

Thanks for this great Mod. Your story with Angels and Demons was quite interessting. I´ve played "Tears to Tiara" before with a quite similar concept with evil angels. xD I really like the idea with the tokkens. Also the save/load Bug I had in part two did not occur again. So overall 10 points :)

Spoilers follow: The holy grail myth or whatever it's called about some royal bloodlines in France being descended from Jesus has been turned on its head here, thus making the PC being descended from satan and has to fight a so called angel. I'm sorry but I found this reference so disturbing, that I stopped playing and not having finished the game, I haven't voted either (that would be unfair to the author). (And no I'm not Christian but Muslim.) The pros of this series are: Excellent music (loved "evening falls) and excellently designed areas. The areas are a delight to look at. The fight in the village was very well designed where strategy came into play. The story was interesting, especially the various intrigues and politics of being a bastard and having to make headway in society against terrible odds.
