help Myth: The Fallen Lords FAQ
Does Myth: The Fallen Lords have base building or resource gathering?
No. Bungie's 1997 game gives the player a limited force and focuses on positioning, terrain, formations, and survival rather than constructing bases or harvesting resources.
Why do explosives and arrows behave unpredictably in Myth?
Myth models projectile trajectories, slopes, wind, fire, and explosive chain reactions through its physics system. A missed Molotov cocktail or loose satchel charge can therefore injure friendly troops instead of producing a scripted effect.
Which platforms originally received Myth: The Fallen Lords?
Bungie released Myth for classic Mac OS and Microsoft Windows in 1997. It was especially notable because Bungie was still strongly associated with Macintosh games before Microsoft acquired the studio in 2000.
What continued the story after Myth: The Fallen Lords?
Bungie followed it with Myth II: Soulblighter in 1998, bringing back the series' tactical combat with a new campaign and improved tools. Myth III: The Wolf Age arrived later as a prequel developed by MumboJumbo rather than Bungie.
