Invaders of the Isles Part 1: Cernunnos
In this mini-series we are going to do a deeper dive into all of the enemies that you can face playing as each god, starting with Cernunnos, the Celtic god of nature. The enemies that invade the isles varies per god and they are themed around both mythological and real enemies that their civilisations would have faced.
[h2]Viking raider[/h2]
[h2]Saxon raider[/h2]
[h2]Blight witch[/h2]
[h2]Sluagh [/h2]
[h2]Banshee [/h2]
There are also going to be 3 unique bosses as well that you can face. We are going to keep 2 of them secret so you can discover them yourself when the game comes to Steam Early Access in September but for now let’s take a look...
[h2]Balor[/h2]
In Celtic mythology, Balor is described as a giant with a large eye that wreaks destruction when opened and has been interpreted as a personification of the scorching sun. In These Doomed Isles Balor boasts very high health and their damage increases each turn you don’t vanquish it!
Hope you feel ready now to take on all of the foes Cernunnos has to face to lead their people to victory!
