Posts from Tactics for Necropolis.

if there's air magic, then yes, the slow effect is removed... although it's a pity to have to rely on someone else - it's more enjoyable to use some kind of explosion -))))
Water magic, in addition to prayer and teleportation, also has a global dispel, which can sometimes be useful, and it also allows for cloning, which is also pretty good. Therefore, I think it's worth taking water when playing as a Warrior - it's not a given that you'll get air magic in the near future.

It's better not to learn water for a warrior. Teleport works without water, you can also clone skeletons, and prayer is not learned in Necropolis, so it is learned quite rarely.
And about the explosion: why waste a spell to deal minimal damage to the enemy? (he's a warrior, after all)

I disagree with the idea of building up Vampires quickly. If you take the hero Tanta, he can clear the territory just as well as Vampires (with a starting army)... and by the third week, while others are still building up their Vampire Lords, with Tanta and 500-700 skeletons, you can already start attacking Utopia...

Of the spells, Mass Slow and Raise Dead are the most useful for movement.
And regarding building up Vampires quickly, I disagree.

to Qwerty (it's difficult and not necessary to build Vampires with a castle on the first week) 2-4 Vampires won't make a difference... it's better to boost the economy, or build Liches if you can find sulfur (10)... the exception will be if there is a real threat to the castle at the end of the first week, and the main hero is far away (because if he is close, no one will attack Tanta on the first week).

Water is really not needed... the main thing is to take Earth, and then either Air or Fire, and I generally try to take Wisdom as the 6th or 7th skill.

500-700 skeletons by the third week!!!!!!!!!!.... :eek: Maybe you can teach me how to do that?... I don't think it's realistic :cool:

The tactic is very simple: choose a hero like Tanta or Aislin. Buy Liches and Vampires (preferably with upgrades) in the first week and start systematically clearing the territory around the castle. Later, you can buy a hero like Tamik or Vokial, because Vampires and Knights are great. Especially if they have a horde of skeletons behind them. Two spells help against neutral creatures: Slow and Berserk. Both expert level. This will work on the computer as well.
