Posts from IMPORTANT!!! [DISCUSSION] Academy vs. Necropolis
Mages can only have one hero who can effectively develop the Darkness skill, but I don't remember his name, something like Faiz or...? He has Darkness at the start. I also didn't understand why you would take Darkness when Eternal Light exists, plus summoning is fine. Maybe the Phoenix won't save you there, but Heavenly Shield, mines, phantoms, crystals, and sword walls will definitely help. It's harder for a Necromancer to develop two skills at once; it's easier for a mage, so I think Light + Summoning is possible!

I've played, I've played. I respect mages, all of them, except for Hafiz. They are a strong race, but judging by your post, are you suggesting that mages should learn both Darkness and Light magic? Ugh, how disgusting...
Mages are strong, and you are underestimating Hafiz for no reason... As for Darkness magic for mages, it's usually against Orcs, and going for Darkness just to get Darkness magic... well, you need to consider who your opponent is - if it's a Deidra, then you can...
But what prevents Necromancers from attacking Mages a month after the start of the game? There definitely won't be any Tier 3 units. There's not even a guarantee that there will be Tier 2 units.
Hafiz will have them - but not all - only the Grem and Mages. And without losing city building speed!!! But if he attacks Hafiz a month after the start, then he's just brave!!!
Ingvar, please explain what this interesting idea is: Mages taking both Darkness and Eternal Light. That's Light, Darkness. Do we take Summoning or not? I understand that we're playing as Hafiz, so that means machines? And do we take Sorcery or not? And Education?
I'll answer gradually: 1) We can combine 2 magic types (Air+Darkness, Light+Summoning, Light+Chaos) I suggested taking Light and Darkness --> ("Eternal Light" and "Darkness"). Of course, we take both Education and Sorcery. BUT this is, of course, against Deidra; you can experiment with LIGHT+Chaos (if it's not Ravenga).
In general, I haven't played as Mages against Necromancers for a long time, simply because Necromancers are rarely played lately - they are weak....
This idea doesn't look very good. A reasonable question arises: have you even played as Mages?
Hehe, I understand that you Elves only care about yourselves, but Mages are my favorite race, and I try to play only as them; you can be sure of my skill...

Something isn't clear – are you playing as Dwarves or Mages? After a month of playing, Necropolis will have Dispel, Berserk, Blind, and even Unholy Word. Usually, around this time, I start capturing castles. Besides, there will be about 50 Liches and Vampires – and here's Hafiz with his Darkness spell. I highly doubt he'll survive.

I'm not entirely sure... but the problem here is that Hafiz can clear the mines much faster than the Necropolis, mainly because of the ballista and the upgraded Golems. So, 50 Vampires will take them down first, and the Rakshasa will finish off the rest. It's been tested; the Rakshasa will be there in no time! Plus, there are Mages, Golems, and Tomb Guards... it's quite a mess. Meanwhile, Haven might not even have a mass of units by that time. The Mage will likely survive!
After a month of playing, the Necromancer will have spells like Berserk, Blind, and even Unholy Word.
After a month of playing, I will have Gremlins, Golems, Mages, Djinns, Rakshasas + well-developed magic.
It's unclear whether you're playing as Dwarves or Mages.

Ingvar and Zombie Peasant,
You both have a very high opinion of yourselves, but at the same time, you are surprisingly incompetent in some areas.
I want to say goodbye. I have invested a lot in this forum. I hope my 510 (not counting this one) posts have helped someone.
I apologize if I have offended anyone. I was just trying not to hide what I understood.

Ingvar and the Peasant Zombie, You both have a very high opinion of yourselves, but at the same time, you are surprisingly incompetent in some areas.
Well, I agree about the Peasant Zombie, but not about myself!!!
Actually, I haven't played as mages against Necropolis for a long time, simply because there aren't many players using Necropolis lately – they're weak....
This really struck me... First, the game has a balance that was developed by professionals. Second, wouldn't you agree, Ingvar, that the best players participating in tournaments choose Necropolis for the decisive battles and describe the game with the eloquent phrase, "Necropolis is Necropolis"? :confused:
I'm not entirely sure... but the problem here is that Hafiz can clear the mines much faster than the Necromancer, mainly because of the ballista and the upgraded Gremlins. So, 50 Vampires will take them down first, and the Rakshasa will kill the rest. It's been tested; the Rakshasa will be there in no time! + Mages + Gremlins + Tomb Wraiths... that's the situation. Eternal Light might not have a massive number of spellcasters at this point, I think. The Mage will most likely survive!
We take down the Rakshasa with Vampires, use Mass Slow on the Gremlins, Blindness on the Mages, then Plague on the Djinns. You'll have 500 Skeletons, about 200 Zombies, 100 Ghouls, and 17 Liches. You'll have 4 Rakshasa, 6-8 Djinns, 130 Gargoyles, and I don't know how many Mages, but around 250 Gremlins. They won't stand a chance. Yesterday, we played against Mages (the hero was Hafiz) with four players. Hafiz fell first. What's there to talk about?:confused:

I don't know; Ingvar has always been a Dwarf. And if you focus on Machines, forget about magic.

Will he just go into the Castle or will he learn only one spell, most likely a light spell?

Is SA some kind of super ability (sorry, I don't know)?
Recently, I played on the Empire map as Zehir against Markel. For those who don't know, in the Empire, heroes usually reach level 35-36 with armies of thousands by the final battle. So, even though I won, it was with great difficulty, and only because I found Sandro's Cloak, which allowed me to cast Berserk on the undead. All the mini-arts, magic resistance, and everything else fades in comparison to the masses of undead and dark magic. Therefore, in long games, the Necropolis faction has a clear advantage.

Yeah, if it weren't for that artifact, you would have definitely lost because Necropolis is Necropolis... they have a lot of units and they are immune to mind control)) How many times larger was the Necropolis army compared to yours?
Unfortunately, I don't remember the exact details. But the battle was roughly like this: we kept summoning Berserkers, and our armies ended up defeating each other. In the end, I had Gargoyles and Obsidian Golems left. There was also a funny reaction from my opponent when I used Elemental Equilibrium, and he summoned a very powerful Phoenix at the end – Necropolis has a lot of magic power!

Erazial? Are you by any chance the guy I lost to on Jubil? I was playing Necropolis (nick Lordesat), and you were playing Academy – Hafiz. I think I damaged you first, and then you damaged me. There was also another non-Russian player there. ??
