Just finished Avernum 3 (I know, I know.....I'm way behind in this whole story)! Should I begin Avernum 4, or Blades next? Just want to continue the storyline in the most logical sequence.

Thanks.

A4 continues the story of Avernum, but with an entirely different engine and playing style.

BoA scenarios go all over the history of Avernum/Empire and beyond it and have a similar engine and playing style as the Avernum Trilogy.

Download the demos and decide for yourself which one you like better.

If you are looking for chronological order as far as the game story goes, all the "official" Blades scenarios happen after A3 and before A4. However, there isn't much that's relevant plotwise, so it's no big deal.

I would suggest playing Blades first, simply because A4's engine is very different, and switching back and forth could be annoying.
