Re: Scenario Review: NR 2 - Infested Caves

(1) What difficulty levels have you played the scenario on? Normal. (2) How difficult did you find the scenario? (1-10) Given the footpad's cost and his effectiveness against skeletons, I had no problem fighting the undead, but the trolls were much harder. But it is quite easy nonetheless. The grea...

Re: Scenario Review: NR 1 - Breaking the Chains

(1) What difficulty levels have you played the scenario on? Normal. (2) How difficult did you find the scenario? (1-10) Relatively easy. Following the advice of Tallin to swarm enemy units, and avoiding the cave entrance that spawns trolls, I had just a few losses. 3/10 (3) How clear did you find t...

Re: Unable To Beat Drakes

Some general advice - don't buy 3 scouts on any map in initial turns. I did not know what faction my opponent was - he was random. I've seen Svek's and other Northerner's replays and they tend to open this way. That's why I played it like that. You shouldn't buy trolls against drake player unless h...

Re: Unable To Beat Drakes

Thanks to all, guys.

So you say not to use poison, not to use regen, just go with mass brute force. Quite a tactic, I must say.

Re: Unable To Beat Drakes

I thank you very much for your reply, Velensk. I find your advices very helpful. I'm learning the game and I'm doing a lot of mistakes. Is troll whelp bad against burner because of the burner's 20% resistance to impact? I read some guides and they say to have a good mix of poision, regen and brute s...

Unable To Beat Drakes

I played a few games with Northerners against my friend with Drakes and have not had any luck. I've played a few campaigns, but I'm no expert. If there's anyone willing to watch this rep and tell me what I should improve, what tactical mistakes I do and so, I'd be grateful.

Re: Stuck in DID - Beginning of the Revenge

Thank you, guys, for your replies. I have one bad feature - I just hate to play same things twice. I'll give it some time until the taste for the campaign overgrows the distaste for replaying it.

Re: Stuck in DID - Beginning of the Revenge

Thanks, Max. You know, I did not realize how important it is to level up units for later scenarios. When my level 2 unit died, I was not too happy, but went on playing. Now I'm seem to be stuck. Does this apply to all main campaigns that you must have higher level units for later scenarios to win th...

Re: A Rather Mournful Piece

I'm using MadTracker 2.5 so it's really about samples. I mean one-shot samples, not orchestral loops - not to cause confusion. Okay, so getting better samples would win your sympathies? :)

Re: Stuck in DID - Beginning of the Revenge

I'm using bats to take over villages the enemies cannot reach and then just back off when they can, so I keep more than half of their units around their bases. This tactic came to my mind the moment I saw the map, but while this helps a lot, it does not win the scenario. Going back is what I'd love ...

Stuck in DID - Beginning of the Revenge

Hi, guys. I've played this scenario for 5 times and I can't beat it. I can beat the south orc leader, but only about in turn 32 (of 36), so there's no time left to do the second leader. I can recall no level 2 units. Is there a specific tactic or a way to kill just the leaders and avoid their armies...
