Age of Darkness: Final Stand - The Best Heroes to Choose
In Age of Darkness: Final Stand, players will have the choice between two heroes to play with, and their choice will affect their strategy in the early game. Age of Darkness: Final Stand combines traditional RTS units with a hero unit, who is a special character unit with a background story, unique abilities, and the ability to respawn for free when they are killed. Heroes level up and gain new abilities by killing nightmares for experience and are a major part of the player's military might.
Though the game is still in early access and more heroes have been promised, the two available heroes are Edwin Everard, Wielder of the Flame, and Aelis Syren, the Queen of Nothing. Edwin, who was the first hero available when Age of Darkness: Final Stand entered early access, is a grizzled veteran who wields a huge flaming greatsword with which he cleaves through enemies in close combat. Aelis is the daughter of a deposed monarchy who leads her exiled royal guard into battle. The pair play very differently and though later in the game heroes take the back seat, effective use of heroes is critical to early game success.

This ability makes Aelis look like Darth Vader killing her own people, because the buff comes at the cost of 30% of the unit's total life and Aelis heals 10%
