Don't forget to download the Ascension of Duran mod files in the files tab! As of 0.7.1, they are required to play the campaign!

For eons the Protoss homeworld of Aiur had prevailed. This time has ended. The Protoss have ordered all of their forces back to Shakuras, while the Zerg Swarms succumb to infights between the rivaling Cerebrates, leaving the once pristine Aiur a smoldering ruin.

What may seem like nothing but chaos to some is what others see as an opportunity to prove themselves - an opportunity to ascend.

This campaign is a reimagined version of the original AoD by Whiplash. It consists of both remakes of the original missions, as well as some entirely new ones.

Story

Your brood has been slaughtered. The wretched Dark Templar killed your Cerebrate. You cannot hear the Hive Mind anymore; the calming voices of your thousands of brothers and sisters. All you can still hear are the agonized screams of your children. Faint - yet full of pain.

You are filled with rage. You thirst for revenge. But what could possibly still this thirst? Who could still this thirst?

Features

How to play
