Revision as of 02:51, 15 October 2018

Over the years, The Dark Mod has accumulated a number of Fan Missions that form a larger interconnected series or an overarching/continuing narrative. Many series are connected by their main characters, some by other FM inter-related elements.

This article serves as an overview of the known existing FM series.

The FMs of each series are sorted in chronological order.

Beware of potential (minor) spoilers behind the character links.

Official campaigns

While all TDM missions are technically Fan Missions, the ones belonging to these official campaigns are as close as TDM will ever get to its own official in-game missions, or in-game story campaigns. These core missions for the base game are in slow and patient continuous development (due to TDM being a hobbyist project of a fan community), and have been gradually added to the base game over the course of several years.

For additional series by TDM authors, please see the next section.

Introduction campaign

The missions of this campaign serve as a gradual introduction into the setting and gameplay of The Dark Mod. The missions are shorter and fairly easy, and gradually put the player's newly acquired skills to the test.

Currently, this is the only series that is bundled directly as part of the base game. By installing TDM, the first three missions available to you will be part of this official mini-campaign.

Series' characters: Corbin (protagonist), Paschal Murnerus, Moorish adventurers (background)

Series' status: In development, but currently on hiatus. 3 missions currently available, including the (generally plotless) training mission.
