Still, something tells me that your opponent was just unlucky (forgive me, but Warlock is a very strong hero :eek:! I've only recently started playing with the Stronghold faction, and I don't really like them... Their racial ability is just :mad:, and they suffer a lot of losses at the start...) Well, never mind. The point is, an Orc doesn't excel in magic or initiative, and they were also nerfed in version 3.1, so it turns out that you can't beat Warlock with them anymore. I've beaten Warlock against the computer, and I've also had 3 online battles (won twice, lost once), and I can honestly say that the best way to fight against the Stronghold is with magic users:)
