This is the gameplay footage of "Age of Wonders" v1.36, recorded with "Camstudio" v2.6b. Sound wasn't recorded, so I added the music in myself.

This video depicts the final confrontation between the Highmen and the Keepers, which occured after many failed attempts at resolving the situation peacefully. I played with a custom-made dwarven "dominator" (leader with a "dominate" skill and high def/res), which allowed me to have 10 different heroes in the Valley of Wonders. XD Thanks to the "Tranquiity" spell, noone experienced any morale loss.

Hero count (in order in which they were aquired):
1) Nijuni, the dwarven Leader. Thanks to a huge stroke of luck, I aquired the "Stone Skin" spell from the mage tower on the 1st map (Flowershire), which, combined with the "Bless" spell, allowed him to have maxed-out def on 1st map. Combined them with the "Liquid Form" and "Healing Waters" spells made him nearly invincible.
2) Devon Strongberry, the halfling Hero. A spell-caster recruited on the 2nd map (The Northern Trade Route), this one was found seeking refuge in a Builder's Guild.
3) Eclo Frostbite, the Frostling Hero. Thanks to his "Cold Strike" ability, each successful strike he made had a chance to freeze his opponent solid for 2 combat rounds (3 before the patch). He was dominated on the 5th map (Mining Outpost).
4) Bormac Orcbane, the dwarven Hero. One of the 3 ancient heroes woken from the Hall of Heroes (6th map). A spell-casting, triple-striking berserker with "Leadership".
5) Nyshia, the halfling Hero. One of the 3 ancient heroes woken from the Hall of Heroes (6th map). A spell-casting healer.
6) Igor the Liche, the undead Hero. A spell-casting hero with "Doom Gaze". Dominated on 11th map (The Pass Of Grief).
7) Gabriel, the highmen Hero. He appears on the final map (Valley of Wonders) in order to fight alongside the player's army, claiming it is neccessary for him to be "exhalted". A spell-casting healer with "Leadership" and "Bard's Skills".
8) Gadarn, the orc Hero. He was Meandor's (Dark Elf Leader) right-hand man on the final map (Valley of Wonders), where he was dominated.
9) Elwyn, the undead Hero. A former Queen of the Elves, mother of Meandor and Julia, widow of the former Elven King Inioch. Assasinated in the prologue of the Cult of Storms campaign, before the beginning of the Keepers campaign. She was raised by her animated husband - the Undead King Inioch - and serves him on the final map (Valley of Wonders), where she was dominated.
10) Khelan, the elven Hero. He was a Keeper serving under Julia's (Elf Leader) command on the final map (Valley of Wonders), where he was dominated.
