To be fair, in the 3rd mission, an ally captured a small enemy squad that was raiding my rear. However, as a result, my Hive of the Swarm went over to him. :rolleyes:
Regarding ambushes: instead of increasing the number of units, you can simply replace the creatures with undead. Hypnosis… you get the idea. :)
I used Death Magic very sparingly, and mostly in the early missions. After all, the player should have a choice; in the 2nd mission, there are plenty of corresponding altars, so you can take them or not. The main character didn't have Nature Magic at all. Summoning is not at all necessary for the final battle. By the way, I discovered an easy way to defeat Lucifer without it, although I heroically died repeatedly before that. :smile19:
P.S. It's a pity that there are few new and worthwhile things for the 4th installment. I would gladly play something similar again.
