Spellforce: Order Of Dawn - In their immeasurable greed and constant thirst for power, the thirteen most powerful Mages of all time doomed the land, hurling it into an endless spiral of chaos and despair.
Entire countries were wiped out in the blink of an eye when the devastating power of the Elements was unleashed - Elements summoned by dark rituals. Continents shattered like glass, the pieces strewn about like leaves in the wind.
Huge armies, bound by the the power of ancient runes, brought war and destruction to the lands that survived the initial onslaught. All that was left were a few islands, connected by magic portals.
Now, only a few years after the end of the Convocation, evil is back - stronger and more powerful than ever before - to finish what was started.
Yet there is still hope. The prophecies tell of a human. A human damned to immortality, bound forever by the power of the blood runes...
Soon, the time will come when the power of one may change the destiny of many. For better or for worse...

What's New in This Release:
· Also, the new netcode is now really capable of handling several players with different language versions, both in coop and pvp games. The problem with Gold Edition and the second addon, Shadow of the Phoenix, making internet games impossible, was fixed too.
· Please keep in mind, that the patch includes several maps (Coop_43_dark_Kathai, Coop_43_light_Kathai, Questplace) for the second Add-On "Shadow of the Phoenix". If you try to load one of these without having the second AddOn installed, your system will crash.
Important The patch is only necessary, if you are trying to play the Gold Edition together with our latest patch v1.52, but it works for all editions!
