Take time to level up your heroes as you'll need the XP for the next scenarios.Ģ) Druid 1: Sorry, I am momentarilly forgetting the name of the Druid Draconian. Consider also Succubi - their charm ability coupled with the temporary charm 'seduce' can turn the tide of battle in your favor right quick. Beware, however, that there ARE options: Banish and Dispell spells have a chance of killing your Shadow Stalkers outright. One or two stacks means you can pick and choose where to attack and the opponent has few options to counter them.

Additionally, fast-track shadow stalkers - their high damage resistance and pass wall ability makes them fearsome on the battlefield. Unicorn riders are not the Iron Maidens of AOW:SM, but are pretty good - limited range teleportation with a quick attack after is a good way to make walls meaningless.

I am trying several different tactics to see if I can do more than stalemate the computer at this point. I haven't cracked the Theocrat campaign level yet - it is extremely frustrating as you can't really Zerg rush too well AND hunkering down benefits the Dreadnaught more than it does the Theocrat. A five-man team of them can pretty much wreak havoc on enemy defenses pretty easily call lightning is a nice area effect with a reasonable cool-down and at later levels, they can entangle or even charm the occasional beast (though it is usually better to just kill the enemy.

The ultimate, of course, is 'The Horned God. In that vein you want to use 'Summon Gargantuan Creature'quite a bit the Shock Serpents and Reed Serpents have great abilities, a phenomenal attack, and the 'ferocious' aspect, making them difficult to counter by regular troops. This will keep a campaign going well into enemy territory as dead critters can be easily replaced if you can, press the enemy relentlessly especially if they lost a hero of their wizard. Here's what I've gleaned thus far:įirst, the druids lack for specialize 'built' units in favor of summoned units.
