General answer - play more, with experience, everything will come, both standard actions and some of your own. I'll try to answer point by point, where Lizard didn't answer or I don't quite agree.

Thank you very much! If you want to practice with me, I'm ready to play in the evenings!

A little off-topic for the readers:
Yura and I replayed one of our games.
In the first version, he came to me and died; we agreed that I would come to him. He's playing as the Rampart, he has 3 castles. I'm playing as the Necropolis, 2 castles. In general, we played for a while, and the final battle was postponed for a week. He destroyed my growth (2 archers, 4 knights, and a couple of shooters; I didn't have more money), so in the final battle, the Rampart had a significant advantage in units and slightly better stats.
But since his knights only killed 2 of my units, and those retaliated, killing 7... With shield and stone skin, 6 archers have about 70 defense... In general, almost all of my army survived again, and the armor saved the day.


I'll continue with the off-topic, but it's very useful off-topic for beginners. Why? Because a beginner can't understand how, with an advantage in stats (!), in units (!!! - he was developing from three cities!!!), in money, and in everything else, it's possible to lose???

It just doesn't fit in their head; the beginner prepares a bag... Like I did.

Honestly, I still understand that defeat like this: I didn't know how powerful mass shield and mass stone skin are in final battles. I didn't use these spells at all in single-player, and neither did all my friends who I played with. We thought that casting a chain lightning or something like that was cool - something that immediately destroys a good part of the army. At worst - blind.

In Multiplayer, as I realized a little earlier, mass haste and mass slow are the most effective. And after the game with Vitya, mass shield and mass stone skin are even better... What's the point of casting mass haste on yourself if his defense is so high that you hit all your stacks against one stack of his Archangels, and you can't destroy them for several turns???

In general, question 9 has legitimately arisen.

Which magic spells are the most effective in Multiplayer, and in what cases is it more advantageous to use them?
