1* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: A soundtrack as detailed as the original game, with music mostly taken from Music/NoxArcana (used with permission) and Creator/CirqueDuSoleil.
2* DesignatedHero: The game runs on BlackAndWhiteMorality, but many of the "Good" factions are AxCrazy and so devoted to the destruction of evil that they don't care who they kill in the process (or in the case of the Mercurians, actively encourage the death of good people so they can be reborn as Angels to defend the world). Which is rather possibly intentional; even the leaders branded as good are incredibly anti-heroic and such, emphazising the CrapsackWorld Erebus actually is.
3* EpilepticTrees: Many, many examples regarding lore that hasn't been fully explored.
4* GameBreaker:
5** Without a doubt, Chalid Astrakein is one of these. The Religious Hero of the Empryrean, he possesses a spell, Piller of Fire, that turns enemy deathstacks into an absolute joke. Basically, every time he casts it (and he can cast it every turn) the largest stack within two tiles of him gets absolutely ''devastated''. It doesn't matter how many units are in there, they will all take tremendous damage, leaving them with only 20% of their health, and thus, 20% of their attack power. It can't outright ''kill'' them, but since losing health weakens their fighting power, the stack is easy pickings for your army.
6** Baron Duin Halfmorn can alone create an army of werewolves, which create more werewolves.
7** Death 2 and turning all of your mana nodes into death magic, especially as the [[EvilSorcerer Sheaim]], who can get it earlier than everyone else. All non-summoning-based strategies are now obsolete as your legions of [[LightningBruiser base-strength-7 Spectres]] overrun the map, all without ever risking any of the units you paid hammers for.
8** [=MagisterCultuum=]'s modmod adds the possibility of casting Mass Resurrection, using a divine magic user with Life Affinity. Not only does this grant you a chance to resurrect your own slain units (or, due to a [[GoodBadBugs GoodBadBug]], make copies of still-living Adventurer units), when used on certain Unique Features, it will resurrect one of Kylorin's students, who are all extremely powerful magic users.
9*** With some luck, it is possible for the Illians to snatch most of the Imprimatur Council early on. In Magister's modmod, Auric Ulvin gains affinity for whatever mana is present on the tile he's on. That allows him to cast Raise Undead at the Broken Sepulcher, putting Barbatos the Lich under your control. Barbatos can then raise his fellow council members as undead in turn.
