Posts from Stronghold – “The Barbarian Seven” [Campaign 6, Mission 3]

It’s starting to get annoying; I started playing the 4th mission, and again, in every battle, a worm from the abyss appears. Does anyone know how to get rid of this?

Replay the previous mission without visiting the worm's building.

Hooray! Guys, I managed to complete it! The strategy was as follows: In the first week, I visited as many veterans as possible, then I gathered troops along the way and arrived with 1 nag. It turned out that it was easy to kill while staying in the castle. Then, I had Airini run around, collecting everything, and if necessary, I teleported to the castle and gave it to Sando. :) And I was lucky with the artifacts - I got the "Unicorn Bow" and boots (I don't remember the name, but they add +8 to movement). Goblins are powerful with the "Unicorn Bow". :) The nagas were a real pain. :( But I upgraded "Reinforcements" and kept sending them to the panther. The computer was lagging, killing ONLY the panther. ;) And everything went smoothly. I visited all the veterans, then stronger heroes started appearing, but teleportation and hop! I killed them all (there were only 3 heroes and Muakao arrived). The danger was serious, but I lost all 23 orcs. So, it all seemed easy. :)

Guys, I can't find the dungeon where the entrance to the island with harpies is located. I've searched everywhere to the right of the castle. It's just not there ((( Please share a screenshot.

Just click on the arrow in the bottom left corner of the minimap and look at the map and underground to see where the cross(es) are, and that’s it! This solves almost all the questions I have about where and who to look for.

It's in the same place as the passage to the Necromancer's area.

Hey guys, has anyone completed the "Path of Blood" mission with Sandor? I've started it four times already, and I've only managed to last a maximum of 2.5 months. The Nagas keep coming and coming, and I can't replenish my army from a single town fast enough, so I'm surviving for the last month or so thanks to a stack of 300 goblins and 150 orcish warriors. As soon as I encounter a veteran, the Nagas take the fort in a couple of turns (since they attack from two sides simultaneously – on the town and on the fort – I don't see any way to defend the fort). The most paradoxical thing is that I'm playing on easy difficulty, just to run through the campaigns.

What's the problem if there's an upgraded portal in the main town? As soon as an enemy approaches the Fortress, either Sándor or "Kamaz" teleports there and engages them in battle on the walls, simply shooting down the nagas. In the first few weeks, you need to gather as many free Orcish units as possible; they will join even secondary heroes.

Looks like I got lucky! Now, once a month, they come to challenge me, get thoroughly beaten, and then wait another month. All it took was replaying four times...

Guys!!! How do I complete this mission????????????:smile15: :smile15: :smile15: :smile15: :smile15: :smile15: :smile15:

There is an underground passage leading to the Harpies, the one where a cutscene with necromancers plays at the entrance (there are also neutral undead units in the Dungeon).
There is only one path leading to the Cyclops.
It doesn't matter which veterans you visit first.

Tactically, it's better to play like this: Airini in the city with a good army, using teleports to capture Mage units, while Sandor visits the veterans and clears the map. When he reaches level 24, switch their roles. It's better to meet the Nagas on the walls of forts and cities; they will attack even if your army is stronger. Then just shoot them down with centaurs and goblins.
All neutral Orc units on the map will join you, so it makes sense to send Sandor with unupgraded troops.

Why doesn't the teleport from the Fortress to the Fortress work? (I just realized that you can teleport to a Fortress).
For some reason, only the "KamAZ" can do it.

You cannot teleport from a Fortress to another Fortress. You can only teleport from a city where a portal has been built.

By the way, how do you get archers into a Tower?

Drag them into the tower at the beginning of the siege. It seems that the "Tactics" skill is needed for this. During the battle, they can enter it, just like a melee unit.
