Posts from Ranger – “Emerald” [5th campaign, 2nd mission]

In this mission, you can build dragons according to the quest to collect 20 dragons... and I first captured the mines around the city, then collected the weekly income, and moved to the lowest castle on the map and captured it. Also, remember that if the enemy doesn't have a shipyard, they can't buy a ship. The main thing is to prevent them from summoning their ship. And it's also useful to buy another hero at the beginning and put him on a ship. He will pay for himself and the ship with the resources found at sea.

You can build dragons in this mission after completing all Inferno-related tasks, leaving only the "Collect Dragons" quest unfinished. This has been verified in patch 1.5.

Dragons can be built in this mission after killing all the Inferno creatures, when only one quest remains uncompleted: "Collect Dragons". Verified in patch 1.5.

Yes, that's correct. It should be after capturing all the castles, not after killing all the demons. I just completed this mission, and there was one demon with five Cerberuses sailing around in the sea.

I, meanwhile, have mastered my island; I haven't ventured into the Dungeon yet, but I've slowly started exploring it. I looked around, and then a demon with a sizable army attacked me. I immediately saved the game as soon as he appeared on the horizon and ran back to my Castle. Fortunately, I had an army there because I had been saving and trying to end each battle with minimal losses. As a result, when he arrived, it was the beginning of a new week, and I had reinforcements. I defeated him on the second try, and I didn't even lose my entire army. The Castle is very helpful when defending properly. After that, it was just a matter of technique. I immediately rushed through the Dungeon to the nearest Castle and captured it. I didn't have any more problems; I defeated everyone without any difficulty.

maybe in pirated versions it's possible... I have the silver edition, and you can't buy any drugs in this mission. Only gathering!

I don't have a silver edition, but I have a licensed copy. You can buy the Dragon. But the Dragon Lair can only be built after capturing all of the opponent's Inferno castles. Before that, it cannot be built.

Emerald Mission is easy, but fun. :) You can indeed build dragons right after destroying all the Inferno creatures; I did that too, and I have a licensed copy! Although, I managed to gather enough dragons even without building that structure. Demons are complete pushovers; I crushed them with Faidaen without any difficulty! :smile02:

Honestly, it's a stupid mission! But I did it this way: I started building something before I even started swimming (before the Druids). And I kept swimming until I cleared out the center. Then they gave me 3 dragons, and when I cleared out the bottom left, I got 5 more! I couldn't pass: I had an equal number of dragons, but it still didn't work! And the trick is that you need to complete it with an army consisting only of Elves! And you can have even one more dragon; that doesn't matter!

Hello everyone!
I have a problem: after installing patch 1.6, the game crashes after completing this mission. I even started the mission from the beginning. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

I don't have a silver one, but I have a license. You can buy the Dragon. But the Dragon Lair can only be built after capturing all of the opponent's Inferno castles. Before that, it cannot be built.

After capturing all the "demon" castles, the Elven faction gains the ability to build a "Dragon Lair".

Sorry for the off-topic, but I call it a "Dragon Hatchery".

Guys, help me out!
Demons are attacking!
I managed to take one of their castles,
but they're stronger, and I can't even defeat a single hero.
Wherever I go, their demon kills me.
What should I do?

Don't worry too much, this mission isn't that difficult. Basically, I'll try to create a mini-plan for the first few weeks of the mission, but you'll have to figure out how to level up your hero and develop your town yourself. For the first two weeks, capture mines, build up your army, and gradually eliminate the neutral monsters that are hanging around your castle. Then, after gathering your army, head to the Dungeon and, after navigating through it, capture the first Demon castle; there should be a cutscene, and you'll receive a dragon. This will take another week. After that, in the Elven town, hire a hero, give him a weekly growth bonus, and send him to find Findan. Meanwhile, Findan clears the area around him and captures mines. When the armies reunite, immediately send Findan to attack the Demons. If this doesn't help, it means you're leveling up your hero or town incorrectly.

aha! thanks, I'll try
I captured the city, and they gave me a dragon
but while I was capturing the demonic city, my elven city was captured
and I can't seem to gather enough troops to take it back
I've probably replayed it five times

I built everything and surrounded it with mines, but I can't gather enough troops to take back even one demon.

And on which week does the demon attack your elven town?

By the way, if you hire a hero in the tavern, be sure to choose Winraell – he levels up faster and easier!

What is the best way to level up a town or a hero?
