User blog:Decanter/Altina rescue challenge mod

Announcing the Altina rescue challenge

Do you remember early in chapter 1 when Riala meets with Simon? Simon asks if it would be possible to rescue Altina; Riala rhetorically asks if Simon thinks he's strong enough. Well, this is your opportunity to put that to the test.

The standalone game mod allows you to attempt to rescue Altina - at the point when you would normally leave for the merchant camp. It offers a challenge, but one that can be surmounted fairly reliably with a solid strategy. It also reworks some of the game's dialogue, just for fun.

You can download it here here (this link will continue to work if there are updates).

Update, 28 March 2016: I have incorporated the new buff/state mechanics and display from v0.17 into the mod, which should be useful for carefully managing your combat tactics. Also a few lines of dialogue have been changed.
