The magical substance Aether fuels construction and summoning, and is collected with special towers and then must be transmitted back to the headquarters. The minerals Ikon and Arikon must also be managed. Thirty standard and magical units like Gremlin Grenadiers, Shade Tyrants, and Tainted Wisps do your bidding. Interesting features include the importance of unit facing to determine its vulnerability to attack and the synergistic action of several spellcasters to complete the more devastating spells.
