Once this is achieved, the gameplay shifts from focusing the hero's party to one of acquiring resources, building armies, and training unites. The first major hurdle the player has to overcome is cleansing their nearby great temple of the taint of the Death worshipers, which earns them the respect of their people and gives them control of the capital. The player and his companions begin by cleaning out the dens near their faith's capital, collecting resources, and building up fame and experience. At the beginning of the game, the player has only a few faithful companions to help him. Players choose their Lord from three classes: warrior, mage, and thief.
Players assume the role of a hero of their faith, called a Lord. The maximum level for the fodder is 5 (except for one unit in the Special Edition), for the champion units, 10, and for a Lord (a unique champion), 12. The fodder unit is actually a group of three units that are commanded and move as one. The heroes are powerful individuals who may wield artifacts of power. An army can be composed of up to three heroes and nine normal units.
There are two major types of units, champions and fodder units. The faiths share major themes among their units for example, the Chaos faith is composed of barbarians, while the Order faith (its opposite) is composed of medieval knights and traditional wizards. The game is divided into eight "faiths." The four elemental faiths are water, fire, air, and earth the four other faiths are life, death, order, and chaos. Lords of Magic is a blend of turn based action on the world map, and real time combat on a small map when armies collide.
