What kind of magic do you like?

Sure, drive is welcomed... But then again, if we are talking about a leveled-up hero, he can use Charm or Diplomacy as a last resort. Many little monsters might defect to your side. And if there's no room for them in your army, let them guard the mines. That's another thing why I love Order and Nobility!

I'm generally a fan of running around with a single hero, which is why I don't really like Charm or Diplomacy; it even gets in my way... and I don't give a damn about the mines... let whoever wants them take them... I sometimes don't even bother building units in Castles... only later when there's nowhere else to spend the money can you build some... That's why I love Heroes 4... running around with one guy or hand-in-hand with a mage (romance)!!:)
