A completely redesigned magic system with new spells and a revamped skill system. New morph trees. All brought together with that incredibly elusive aspect called balance resulting in a fun, addictive game experience!!

Dwiggs 5.0 is here! A big shout-out to Stranger for this awesome mod!!!

Packaged in an installer, this is the only download you would need to enjoy Dwiggs in all its glory. Get it here and take a week's vacation for you'll need atleast that much time to digest all the new stuff in there!!

What's going on here?!! It seems that Zane, the Lord of Fire has to defend the poor Infernal Kobolds and their Ruins from the machinations of the Dark Elf Cultist, Temperion and the most beautiful of mermaids, Leila. Corram the Mahout is no doubt training the Elephants near the Temple to help them.
...and the Ghosts and Liches in the surrounding woods are patient, waiting for the dust to settle...

The previous poll had a 895 votes and asked your opinion on Overlord. Almost a quarter of the visitors who voted were enthusiastic about its release and looked forward to playing it. The rest were indifferent, pessimistic, or even ignorant of Overlords existence.

Here are the results:
I can't wait to play it - 240
OK, but not really for me - 237
It's the end of an era - 159
What's an "Overlord"? - 259

The new poll contains a more personal question. All units have certain characteristics you can probably identify with. Perhaps you like gardening, fixing mechanical devices, or just lie in your coffin waiting to prey on innocents? Anyway, pick which unit fits your personality the most!
(I am a Saint, btw... :p)

It was a lonely day. Inside the Cherub Wagon, Zen; the divine lord and God of Heavengames turned on his computer. Everything was going fine until Zen realized something was missing. All the staff, as exemplary and *insert flattery here* as they were, were extremely predictable. This was also the case for the members. Zen then had a great idea to add variety to HG. He organized a giant party for a few members from each heaven, and sent in 3 of his most trusted staff with nice sharp kittens axes.

His plan was to assassinate the members, while he sat back and ate some popcorn. As the members realized this, they quickly gathered up their pointy sticks. The stage was set, and Zen ordered the killing to be conducted in a turn based civilized manner. What forum has the most cunning warriors? We're about to find out...
