Friends, I'll also share my experience with the "In Search of Power" scenario walkthrough.
(This scenario is included in the EWA 2.2.1 mod.)
/topic/9495/I played it on Hero difficulty.
So, at the beginning, I bought a secondary hero in the tavern who would later serve as a messenger and resource collector (logistics + pathfinding skill). I gave his entire army to the main hero, whom I continued to develop to the maximum extent possible. First, I joined allied troops from nearby buildings and captured mines (wood and ore). Next, the main task is to capture a free city. This isn't easy because neutral armies block the way, but it's necessary. Without capturing the city, winning is almost impossible. A feature of this game map in this scenario is that you are located in the middle of warring factions, each of which attacks you first. Essentially, at the start of the game, you are one against three. Among skills and abilities, attack, luck, defense, and dark magic are most useful in this scenario. For complete victory, you need to capture all three cities and obtain three artifacts. The good news for me was that there is an opportunity to collect a full set of composite artifacts on the map:
Dragon Scale Armor. Of course, this isn't easy, but if you show courage and patience, it's possible.
Set BonusesIf there are 2 items: Adds +1 to all hero stats.
If there are 4 items: Gives +5 to attack and defense for all level 7 creatures in his army, and also increases their health by +20.
If there are 6 items: Adds another +3 to all hero stats (this bonus stacks with the bonus from 2 items).
If there are 8 items, then one level 7 creature is added to the hero's army every day. The creature will be from the same city as the hero. Preference is given to regular upgraded creatures, then alternative upgraded ones, and finally unupgraded ones.
Overall, although the scenario is difficult, I really enjoyed it. Good luck with your playthrough. If you manage to beat the scenario on Hero difficulty with Dynamic Groups (RMMS), Mega AI, and TE scripts enabled, please let us know.
