Posts from Sylvan Elves versus Demons.

Who goes first – the improved Imps or the Elven hero with high Intellect?

Is Chaos more dangerous to the Elf than Darkness?

A newbie's perspective. In reality, by the 2nd or 3rd month, a well-developed Chaos plus a Sorceress can work wonders against Demons. And of course, the right artifacts.

An Elf can easily acquire Education and Chaos, but Demons have nothing to resist this Chaos with.

Just take a look at the tavern, assess the stats, and try to recruit Marbas.

What's the chance of getting spellcasting for demons?

In my opinion, it will work if you level up the second warlock.

Umka:
1. If I had known that this situation would arise, I wouldn't have approved taking the "Native Lands" skill. If an Elf spends 6 skill points on Logistics and takes "Expert Summoning" with Fire Warriors, they will already be level 11. In a battle with a Demon, the following might happen: Imps will drain mana, and only one useful skill will remain - "Native Lands."
2. You can reduce the skill point cost for Logistics by upgrading it to "Advanced Logistics" and then taking other skills. Or you can take "Keen Mind." In this case, the hero will move before the Imps and push them back with the "Hive." Consequently, before the Imps' turn, the hero and Furies (with "Hive"), as well as Archers and Druids, will have time to attack them.
3. Choosing "Education" instead of Druids is original, at least because one doesn't contradict the other. You can, of course, skip it. The main thing is not to run out of mana in a battle with Jaleb. Developing Druids instead of Archers or Dancers is a good idea. For Jaleb's Ballista, our Archers are easy targets, and, of course, Blades are no match for Druids. The only benefit of Archers is that they can help eliminate the Imps before they are shot down.
4. I deal with the Dogs in the first week the same way I deal with Archdevils - I go around them through the forest. Dire, of course, starts quickly, but there should be at least some rules of decency. :)
5. What is your hero's level at the end of the first week, and what level does the second week hero reach on this map?

Pff, how much can a demon even cast? His elves will take them down in 2 turns within 2-3 months with luck, cursed, and speed aura. And the chance of encountering resistance is high.

Good afternoon/evening/night. I always play as elves in all parts of the game, and I was very pleased with them in the 5th part. A demon in Chaos cannot be compared to an elf – both have weak magic, the same knowledge, but elder druids transform a ranger – after using the channel, magic increases by one knowledge level and becomes higher than that of mages and approximately the same as that of a Warlock. Now, imagine a rain of enchanted units with Shock Earth/Meteor Shower/Chain Lightning – I prefer Meteor Shower because emeralds often go out as one of the first (especially with Wingael) and fall under the area of coverage of at least one of the meteors, and they have immunity to earth and don't care, and three enchanted units against five is a huge advantage (due to the druids) in terms of damage, I don't think a demon can achieve that:smile02:, and if you take an enchanted ballista – it's rare, but if you manage to...
