Guardians of the Light and Servants of the Dark are two companion packs that expand on the Disciples II game and campaigns. Although they are officially classed as ‘expansion packs’ they do not in fact require the original Disciples II game to run and, as both a blessing and a curse, both packs have the entire Disciples II campaigns, maps and character roster within them - which means that newcomers to the world of Disciples II can jump right in with one of these packs and see everything there is to offer. This includes the tried and tested formula of turn-based strategy, plenty of adversaries, a perfectly adequate multiplayer mode and a whole lot of leveling up.
