Posts from Chaos structures.

ZYbr, to build a Dungeon in Equinox, you need a third-tier magic building and a Hall of Dead. This costs 4500 + sulfur.

Well, even so, you'll still need 3rd-level Chaos magic.))
And the Hall of the Dead... well, again, you need to build something else in all the castles.

In Chaos, on the second level, I build Medusas. They are decent ranged units, plus they have a chance to petrify even more enemy units. Although Minotaurs are also pretty good guys :) I'll dedicate the third level to Nightmares. Not because of terror, no - just because they are tougher than Ifrits, and significantly so. Although the latter have a devastating fire shield :) The fourth level... Well, guess for yourselves :) Of course, the strongest, most resilient, fastest, and most beautiful (and most expensive, darn it :( ) black dragons. The downsides include their exorbitant price, small increase in numbers, and the fact that they are immune to magic (imagine a Black Dragon with Dragon Strength... Mmm... :rolleyes: ). But this can be forgiven when you look at their insane health and damage :) And in terms of price, they end up costing about the same as other units of this level per week... And they are much faster than Hydras, which are, of course, cheaper, but unfortunately, the wizard doesn't always have the "teleportation" spell ;)

ZYbr, the high cost isn't about the money itself. It's about the silver. 30 + 5 (ifrit) + 2 (Hall of Dead) + 4 for ransom = 41, compared to 20+ for everyone else. Gathering 41 silver in the first week on Expert difficulty is very challenging. Even on advanced difficulty, it's not easy.

I played as Chaos only once, but I developed a medusa-ephor-black drake.

Nightmare (Ifrit) - Black Dragon... probably more Nightmares than Ifrits, as Terror is often useful at the beginning...

Medusa – no questions asked!
Nightmare – due to its terror ability and overall higher health.
Hydra – attacks all enemies without retaliation, and you can cast spells on it! (for example, Feline Agility, which affects enemies!, the first attack deals significant damage to the Hydra).
...I'm really annoyed that you can't cast spells on dragons!

Hydra, not Chaos Demon, that's something new)) I actually feel bad for the Hydra – it's a pretty strong unit, but it can't compare to the Chaos Demon. By the way, why would Chaos Demon cast Bless in battle, when there are only 4 types of Bless (+1 fire aura), if he can incinerate everyone with Fireballs and Chokes, and Mass Unluck is a very cool spell that makes life much easier. Therefore, it's actually good that magic doesn't affect the Chaos Demon. He won't be affected by his own Fireball.

They increase by 2, while the dragon increases by 1...
Mana problems often arise (or sometimes you only have 1 castle and attacking spells don’t drop), so you have to rely on physical attacks from Nightmares and Hydras.

But at least the dragon has 400 HP, an attack of 55-110, and attack and defense stats of 40+, plus excellent speed. I disagree about the spells; it's very rare for mass buffs/debuffs to drop on levels 3 and 4, but even then, you can level up to 5 (where there are ONLY offensive spells, and with any of the three spells, the Chaos Knight will be at an advantage). If Armageddon drops, and you have ifrits in your army instead of nightmares, that's even better.

: )

We're not looking for easy ways) or maybe I just feel sorry for the Hydras and take them with me) There was a case where I managed to level up both Death and Nature for a Chaos mage on a map (there were a lot of altars), so I kicked everyone out and left the Hydras, casting Vampirism and Dragon Strength on them – it was fun!

A teleport would be better, but it's hard for a Chaos player to get it.

By the way, another advantage of the Black Dragon is that it's easy to develop; you still need to cast buffs on the Hydra, which costs mana, but you can sometimes help the Dragon with a Lightning Bolt, but not always.

P.S. The Dragon with Tactics is just insane. I tried it recently, and the Dragon had, I think, 64 attack and 72 defense. This was at the maximum level of Tactics, plus it had a Ring of Protection, which added another 20%.

This was with the maximum level of tactics and a ring of protection, plus another 20%.

Why are there so few artworks?
Grand attack +50%
Grand defense +50%
Sword of Legends attack +50%
Ring attack +20%
Ring defense +20%
Attack and defense from the Commander's Helmet +20% (or 30%, I don't remember exactly)
Lionheart Shield defense +40%
That's quite a set!

I never used Hydras. Medusas and Dragons, though. And there's always one thing in the game that I can't quite decide on – horses or Ifrits. I just can't make up my mind.

Sometimes, fear is very helpful for horses, and Efreet can effectively attack high-level heroes with their shield!
