Posts from Haven – “Defeat and Victory” [Campaign 3 – Mission 4] Auto-translated

Yes, I was just about to ask if you use Phoenixes. I doubt that Elementals will help you at the end of the mission, but you can try :). Maybe they changed it with the patches. In version 1.2, Svetlana attacked if you approached her Castle.

Hi everyone! I completed this mission and the campaign for Haven.
It was a good campaign! Interesting! I especially liked the second mission!
What I want to say is, I summoned Phoenixes only once or twice when I was low on mana. Why? The Light Elementals, with their retaliatory attack, could eliminate up to 5 stacks. I even got the achievement "Kill 5 stacks with a retaliatory attack")). And the Light Elementals are more mobile and can be summoned quickly. I summoned Earth Elementals to help them. But also rarely!
BY THE WAY!! I FOUND A BUG!!!! IF YOU USE THE "PETRIFY" SPELL WITH AN EARTH ELEMENTAL, THE ENEMY UNIT BECOMES IMMORTAL!! NEITHER GRIFFONS' FLIGHT, NOR CHAIN LIGHTNING, NOR EVEN ATTACKING WORKS ON THEM))))
When I defeated the Chalice of El-Sarah, I forgot about mana))
Svetlana. No, in this patch, she is really an ally. You can't attack her, and you can walk around her castle as much as you want! I tried it with both the main hero and secondary ones!
I defeated the traitor Jezebel without any losses!!
Oh yes, realizing that it's impossible to upgrade "Dirge" to level 5 on this map, I bought the warrior hero Karl and gave him all the warrior artifacts. I leveled him up and went on the attack! WOW! What a beast!!
With him, I defeated Jezebel and the final boss!
As for the final demon, I killed him on the second turn! His attack is somehow incredibly high - with luck, he killed 70 Archangels!!!! On the second turn, he killed another 40! On the first turn, he summoned 10 Crushers, and on the second turn, 20 hounds. They attacked the walls!
I killed the Crushers with the griffons' flight, and the hounds didn't even get a chance to attack! The cavalry, with repeated morale, killed the boss.
I got the achievement "Kill Abaddon before his army destroys any walls"))). Honestly, I don't understand how it's even possible to let the walls be destroyed and the castle's defenders be lost... You'd have to fight him for 20 turns!!
A very weak boss... I haven't played as Kirill yet, and I haven't played with my favorite barbarians, but so far, only Michael impressed me!
I really defeated him at the last moment! One more turn, and he would have won! Michael was the most difficult so far! The others, unfortunately...
Especially Kate in dragon form... The Broodmother is difficult if you attack her with a medium-sized army.
Uriel is also tough! He will tear apart a medium-sized army.
I don't know what the bosses are like in the Infernal and Barbarian campaigns.
So: Mage hero, Blood. Difficulty: HARD.

This isn't a bug, it's a feature.
It's similar to the fact that you can't attack the nearest mermaid in melee combat, or you can only attack the nearest destroyer, and you can't attack the other enemies next to him.
And there's also another similar thing.
When the petrification wears off, you can attack the enemy normally.

Okay! I understand.
I just thought it was a bug!))

I'm playing.
It seems that after all these patches, the computer has become stronger. It's getting harder. Spells are expensive, enemies cast combat spells like crazy, and there are no battles without losses anymore.
There's enough mana for 1-2 battles, and then it's gone.
It's actively taking back the forts and castles that I captured.

I'm playing on patch 1.8. From the beginning of the game, I use the summon of 3 phoenixes - they help a lot, and now the vestals are helping too, plus reinforcement :smile10:.
As for spells, lately they are hardly used at all - "summon phoenixes", then "reinforcement" and "general heroism". If there are losses that the vestals or angels can't cover, then, of course, I have to spend on "resurrection" or "restoration", and only then everything else. Most of my Anthony's skills are passive, like "Cleave" :smile03: :smile02:!

Guys, when is Aunt Sveta coming?! I've been beating up the small red guys for 2 months, 4 weeks, and 1 day now. I tried to attack Nimues, but it turned out to be a tough opponent. He had 128 broodmothers, and then he started summoning creatures every turn... I had to jump back to my starting castle and take out the small one. Nimues is currently clearing out my surroundings between the two castles that are connected by a bridge. Then he'll come after me, but what should I use to meet him?! I gave Kilburn artifacts that increase creature growth in the castle; hopefully, that will help. I left phoenixes and an artifact that increases luck with Anton, but they didn't help me against Nimues. What should I use to defeat him?

capture all castles (except for Nimus, Falcon's Nest, and some Castle of Light (in the lower right corner of the map)). Then, wait for 2-4 weeks, gather all the accumulated army, and attack Nimus.

That's understandable, the main thing is that he doesn't visit me before that :eek: :smile11:.

leave a garrison in all ground cities, otherwise, move to some underground city.

in all ground cities, leave a garrison, otherwise, he'll move to some underground city.

I'm just approaching the second city, I'll convert it now, I'll place 10 novices, then I still need to capture a crystal mine:smile10:, and then we'll go down to the Dungeon.

Month 2, week 4, day 3 - Aunt Svetlana appeared, captured the red lower right Castle and made it green, she will breed undead; the gates opened automatically, the ones next to the Castle.
It all happened after I captured the middle Castle of Caer-Faol.

Aunt is sitting in her Castle. I defeated Nimusa on month 3, week 1, day 6, he became weak, he didn't even have time to summon anyone - he probably gave all his army to his helpers:smile02: (there were 128 broodmothers, now there are 74).
I caught him near the Deer Castle:smile10:, on the other side, he was clearing out neutrals, approaching the Fortress near the Castle, and I jumped from Castle to Castle... and that's it:smile44:.

I've already fought Nimue four times, the last time in the lower left castle, and after that, I fought Jedite. He had such strong defenses on his castle – it was incredible! Each time, the gates dealt a lot of damage! I had to leave only the Vestals and Luminaries – that's the only way I could avoid losses. He killed 194 of my Vestals, and I had to resurrect them afterward. After conquering the castle, I received the task of retaking two Falcon Fortresses. I haven't gone underground yet. Anton hasn't been developing for a long time; he's already level 30. I only visit the magic stones and adjust morale and combat spirit at the monuments and stones.

My aunt is still sitting in the lower right castle behind the gates. I visited her, but she didn't even come out or say hello – you can't even approach the castle or her with Anton, let alone Kilburn, although I didn't even try to approach her with them.

Is the quest with Gwendolyn completed?

Is the quest with Gwendolyn completed?

Not yet, if I haven't gone into the Dungeon – how can it be completed?! They aren't crawling out of the ground to me yet.

something is wrong, it needs to be completed, do underground creatures appear or not?

Something's not right, I need to complete it. Either underground creatures are coming or they aren't.

Of course, I'll complete it, although I'm currently near the Fortress. I'll save and try to capture the fortresses.

Arriban, poor guy, has been banging on the gates of the Falcon's Nest for the 4th month in a row :smile35:, and they won't open for him :smile27: :smile02:.
