Posts from Necromancer – “Ruler of Erathia” [Campaign 3, Mission 5]

To do this, you need to build the corresponding structure in the castle – a converter into undead and dwellings for the converted units. For example, to turn angels into dragons, you need to build a dragon dwelling.

I didn't do this in this mission because I flew to Godric on the 1st week. Otherwise, it is very difficult for the hero to defeat the fully upgraded Godric. I took several of the strongest knight units, bought/recruited everything I could, and flew off with this mixed team.

For some reason, the battle with Godric doesn't start automatically for me; I have to do it manually. I don't know where to place the warriors – should I move them or leave them in place? Also, when I hover the cursor over Godric's army, it says "Danger – Low" (by the way, Godric's army has no angels or knights, only many titans and large, horned, blue creatures with swords). But during the battle, I see that all my arch-liches are being defeated easily. Did I over-level Godric? Maybe I should attack him in the first week instead of spending a couple of weeks gathering an army, gold, and resources?

bonchik, on what difficulty level are you playing? If it's on Hero, the easiest way is to rush right away in the first week. Otherwise, it will be even harder later. On any other difficulty, you can take your time – clear the entire territory and gather a huge army. All the knightly troops from the castle and outer dwellings – turn them into undead. The main thing is to stay within the time limit. You will receive a corresponding warning.

Angels, paladins, archers, and warriors will only appear after you defeat the entire starting army of Godric. Autoplay doesn't work because your game is patched. It was fixed in some patch.

It's bad if you don't have a full set of dark magic and summoning spells. With them, you can defeat a heavily upgraded Godric on the first day of the second week. On Hero difficulty, on that day, he will have only 5-6 titans and 20 angels. I don't know about other difficulty levels.

Boris K - thanks for the help, now I understand. There probably isn't an auto-save feature because of the patch (heroes_might_magic_5_1.06_rus_cumulative.exe). What do you think? Should I use a different patch? Also, I'm playing the game on "RECRUIT" difficulty for the first time.

bonchik, why change the version? The developers considered autobattle to be cheating in this mission. That's why they disabled it. On recruit difficulty, Godric's second army will be very small in any week. And it's easier to deal with the first one with a longer playthrough. After all, you have 2 castles, many external dwellings, and hordes of joining undead. And Godric only has 1 castle.

Explore all the islands, collect everything there, and level up Markel. You can also visit the sphinx. If you only need money, you can send a supporting hero to the sphinx. There is no guard there. After you defeat the landed heroes, you can immediately send a supporting hero to the sea to collect debris. Just don't miss the deadline, or the mission will be considered a failure.

P.S.
In the 6th campaign, you will have to fight both Isabella and Markel. They will be there with your upgrades. But the battles with them are easy.

Boris K. I agree with you about the upgrade system, Darkness, and summoning!

I played a mission with a hero, and I don't know what I would have done without Spiritual Link (in the original version, this skill is in Darkness).

I don't know if anyone else has done this – at one point, my Markel had 122 skeletons, and my heavily upgraded Godric had 20 angels and 300 pikemen.
The skeletons were standing in a corner, a summoned phoenix was covering them, the hero cast Heavenly Shield, and Spiritual Link was used on the angels.
And then – it was just hilarious. We cast Raise Dead on the phoenix!
The phoenix's health doesn't decrease because it doesn't die.

Maybe this is only in my version (1.2).

Playing on difficulty levels lower than Heroic is no longer interesting. My Markel turned out to be a terminator :) I defeated Godric on the third day without any losses.

I don't know why you're having trouble; I easily defeated Godric on Veteran difficulty:smile08: I just spammed him with Darkness spells and then finished him off with melee attacks. Sorry, I wasn't aware of any difference:confused:

Veteran difficulty and Hero difficulty are completely different things in the campaign: I experienced it myself. Besides, I heavily leveled up Godric for the future and even took the "guardian angel" skill, so I had to fight the mages first, then start over with the strongest unit (I don't remember, it seems like a Rakshasa), then people appeared, and finally, I fought the Angels as the strongest unit. If you play without the "spiritual connection" skill, you might simply run out of mana.

It is in this mission that the biggest difference between a beginner and an experienced player becomes apparent. I barely managed to defeat a well-developed Godrick on the 1st day of the 2nd week. Luckily, I had a full set of dark magic and summoning spells.

Can someone help me? I can't figure it out: they're telling me that the spell has been learned, but I don't see it in the spellbook. Is there some special trick to it? And I have all the necessary magic skills.

maybe, if a spell is prohibited in this mission by script, which spell is it?

Where do you get Phoenixes? I don't have any. I'm playing as a Knight.

I just finished it in version 3.0, hero level - without a powerful Phoenix, you can't do anything. A Berserker is also useful when blinding or controlling Titans or Rakshasa, as the "damn" Djinns immediately remove the spells. I went to the Castle on day 5-6; I don't know what would have happened if I had gone there after a month and a half :smile32: ..(I'll try this option too) Don't forget that Godric has an angel guardian at the end who resurrects - I had Archangels (20), Paladins (8), Archers (100), and Swordsmen (368) - Phoenix + Shield + Vampirism - all of them were killed:smile03:

By the way, during the battle, there were moments when all my troops fell, and only the Phoenix was on the battlefield, but the battle didn't end (and I thought that summoned troops weren't counted as "alive")...

I have a mission where Markel and Elizabeth are wandering around and want to get to Hikam. Markel killed angels, and a maiden was captured – Godric’s daughter. She killed everyone. But they want the Amulet of the Heromancer from me, and it’s with Godric – a cool guy who locked himself behind a mountain range in Hikam and won’t give it up. I need to kill Godric and take the amulet… But! I can’t fly over. I’ve already sailed around with ships, I’ve already run around all the mountains! Markel won’t fly! :smile50: The worst thing is that I need to get the amulet within a certain time, and time is running out, and the game is lost. I’m panicking. Did I distribute the healers incorrectly, or am I just blonde? But I’ve been struggling for 3 days!!! Help me, guys! Please! How can I fly over????
