Posts from White Temple

Good afternoon. Does reducing the knowledge of mages when entering a town affect the ballista? If so, then this faction is just too harsh. Wouldn't it be easier to block the construction of the artifact forge? Besides, after changing Christopher for the tenth time (by approaching the pointer), he becomes a necromancer with only one imp in his army.

Well, after the Dungeon (Sandro's cloak and the staff with the Dominate spell), the Skeleton Archers aren't scary anymore. But what to do with Zephyr, who builds outposts and creates mirages of his Titans, and they attack – that requires some thought...

I summoned a Phoenix. It has elemental balance, by the way (so there will be a Phoenix with that). But your Phoenix attacks twice per turn (is that the author's idea?), but it helped me win.

The final is almost the same... the opponent spams phantoms and has incredible initiative! (even though I had 3 artifacts for speed: 2 rings and a staff + minor artifacts for 34% speed)! And this can lead to running out of mana (his imps go first and eat up half of your mana), you won't be able to kill them in the first turn - they have decent defense. I played with "Arcane Knowledge" and in the first turn, I controlled his imps and killed the imps - after that, it became easier, although you can only cast Berserk on his cave troll (strength), because he attacks you from the first turn. After that, he only attacks with his fists (but it hurts). Something like that.

P.S. There are a couple of bugs on the map: random mana regeneration when entering a Castle (it happened often), and one semi-bug (you still won't have enough money) - on the mountain where you buy elementals, one of the merchants (who sells them every day instead of once a week (stone elementals)).

I cleared everything 100%, completed all the quests - the most difficult battles (in my opinion) are the packs of elven troops (defense of the arenas in the Dungeon) - they have too much initiative - I left them for last before the final. 

Thank you to the author for the game - it was interesting.

1. Yes, the Phoenix gains Double Strike and Lava Shield at level 30. All changes are in the manual.

2. Oh, you had King Christopher as a Demon on summon. He can be any race and master any school of magic. If you want to test your hero against other races/magic, you can click on the corresponding indicator.

3. Mana is not replenished randomly; heroes from the Academy simply lose 40 knowledge points when in a town (so that they don't forge overpowered minions), and mana is replenished regardless of this penalty. Regarding the elementals, I rechecked the script about 10 times, and I don't experience this bug at all. Thank you for finding it. I will test it.

4. Oh, you got "lucky" with the Elves? Packs can be from any Faction.

1. I read the manual once at the beginning and then forgot about it.
2. I don't mess with particularly dangerous things unless necessary.
3. You don't need to try to find the bug, as I'm playing on EWA, and this mod sometimes throws up even stranger things.
4. I didn't know about the randomness, and what I learned from you (the original source) inspires me to replay your map with a different hero, in a different build, and in a different way, even though it's without summoning or darkness...
Thank you again for the game. You put a lot of effort into it – it shows.
