Posts from Sanctuary - "Defeat and Victory" [Campaign 4 - Mission 2]

On the Book of License, playing on Hard difficulty isn't that challenging if you set up the right strategy for developing your character, building your castle, and training units. Use your second hero to gather resources, with skills focused on resource gathering and building structures in your castle. There was a bug on the Book of License, but it was fixed in patch 1.2, I think. I fixed it by saving before the fortress appeared. I've been playing for 3 months on the Steam version, so I don't know if the bug will still be there.

Yesterday, I played this level until 3 AM! There's an interesting point: if you play the "tears" path, you MUST complete the quests from the ice maidens and snow maidens with a secondary hero, not the main hero. Even though you approach with a secondary hero, the EXPERIENCE, TEARS POINTS, and ARMY go to the MAIN HERO, no matter where Irina is!! A nice glitch.))
Now about the game! I took out three enemy castles: I did it!!!
I've been playing for several months now! Now I have the last enemy in the castle, and he's waiting for me with a LEGION: Medusas, sharks, kappas, and a horde of kenseis))) This will be an EPIC BATTLE!

I've been playing for several months now! Now I only have one last enemy left in the Castle, and he's waiting for me with a LEGION: Medusas, Sharks, Kappa, and a horde of Kensei! This will be an EPIC BATTLE!

Wow:eek: And I thought I had been playing for a long time:D

You don't need to rush through this map! And why "gallop across Europe"? NO! I always play at a normal pace. I don't see the point of such a race!!

Added after 20 hours and 13 minutes
HOLY COW!! Can you imagine, the final battle with the legionnaires didn't happen!! Maybe it's just a glitch on my end, but as soon as I attack, Hiroshi, I think, says something like, "let me die with honor" and... surrenders without a fight!!! Maybe I'm on the path of tears?
When I was on the path of blood, there was a battle!

yes, that's how it should be on the Path of Tears. Even in the quest description, it says that you either need to kill Hiroshi or make him surrender.

Okay, that makes sense. I was just preparing for this battle. But it's okay, the walkthrough for the third mission is coming soon: there, I'll face a Necropolis in the upper left corner. But it's okay: I have five castles + the Tear of Ashi - he has only one.

Could you please tell me how to get to the Nymphs and River Spirits?

Kolemoav, accessible through the portal near the Kirins.

Wow, this is a very difficult mission! And, as always, very rewarding in terms of experience. Although in the previous mission I only reached level 8, in this one I achieved a record-high maximum level of 17.

And in the previous one, I only reached level 9, even though Irina cleared everything without any losses!

Take a look at the composition of your army. If Irina has any other troops besides Nagas (for example, Orcs joined), she won't move. She only moves across water with an amphibious army.

By the way, I see that in the previous mission and in this one, people and even Orcs are joining?! Where do they come from?! Only aquatic creatures join me; maybe it's because I'm playing with patch 1.8?

I went through both portals, developing Irina to the fullest – I defeated them all, which in turn allowed me to build the corresponding structures in the cities. For now, I have two – my own and the Shark city.
There were only 23 Kirins – 2 stacks of 11 and 12 each. I equipped the Crest of Subordination and easily defeated them with Pearls, after first casting Heroism on them :smile02:.

I couldn't capture one of the two cities yet; too many troops fell, but in the end, it is quite possible to conquer it without Devs, Streams, and Kirins, the only question is what will be left of the army.

I took 2 allied cities on month 4, week 3, and day 7 without any losses :smile44: :smile02:! I own 4 castles.

And where can I find the Ronin? Should I jump into the whirlpool? Will my soldiers be washed overboard, like in Heroes 5?!

Won't my units be swept overboard, like in Heroes 5?!

No, it won't. In Heroes 6, the whirlpool works like a two-way portal.

I found Ronin, and I thought he would be much stronger, but he only had 3 stacks, with only 28 nagas, the rest were sharks, 2 squads. I defeated him, and there was practically no choice to spare or execute him – only the "execute" button was active because I'm developing Irina to the fullest – the gates to Hiroshi opened.

I still haven't found the eastern fortress – is it by any chance the castle of Hiroshi?!

There's some kind of glitch on the map; I captured a dwelling with light riders, but I can't rebuild it; it says I need to capture a fortress, even though it says I'm the owner!

but I don't have a fortress in this location.

I have the same map with the missing "eastern" fortress – here's where the problem lies :smile11: (I have patch 1.8).

I didn't have it either, so in the end, this task remained unfinished.

bobchik, what level have you reached? I'm currently at level 17; I'll clear the dungeon and then drop by Hiroshi's for tea.

faj, isn't level 17 the last one on this map?

Added 3 minutes later

I didn't have it either, so I never completed that quest.

I was lucky, I completed the quest and then the fortress was destroyed:D :D :D

I haven't played in a long time, so I don't remember much.
Of the official campaigns, I only need to complete Sandro's, and then the expansion will be released - yay!!!))
