[quote who="Raledon" reply="17" id="3462512"] A tactic such as you described, raising a mountain ridge around a city, is not all that effective. It will mean starving your city in order to delay the enemy. Not only that, while you had to raise 9 mountains, all the enemy has to do is lower one (and yes, I'm assuming that if you made mountains impassable that wizards know how to deal with that).[/quote] [IMG]http://i62.tinypic.com/14se5w1.jpg[/IMG]

My sins in Expert mode of FE:LH basically consists of me rerolling starts so very much until I get an isolated start then I start playing on that map unless there's an AI that starts like five turns away from me then I will reroll again. Because with isolated start i will have enough time to research stuff and catch up in equipment which the AI already have like by turn 50? Thats what it feels like to me x.x Because I can't really handle

AOW3 is probably going to kill Archon titans and bone dragons.. once those two is gone, its all relentless ICS from there on -.- And it's not making triumph studios look good in my eyes. http://ageofwonders.com/forums/topic/fun-is-ending-ugggguuuuuu-d/ I'm so glad that FE:LH don't have PVP.

Just always do manual battle against certain types of monsters and your problem will go away. Especially shrikes. I still refuse to believe that four air shrikes with less than 40 hp combined is capable of taking down nine knights with over five thousand hp. My knights had to voluntarily let the shrikes attack them many many times while knight spam defend before one could even go down.

I seen the dead AI expand to like four cities once. But he was my neighbor and I killed the dead and that was the end of the lucky AI. And it could be more worse, after all I just did this and the AI completely fell for it allowing the one knight do this look at all the corpses around it? Yeah xD [IMG]http://i59.tinypic.com/2zh0ea1.jpg[/IMG] While other guys on the knight's team was just watching and eating popcorn as th

Learn about blacksmithing tech and embrace it. It will keep you slightly safe until you reach pikes level of tech in military tree. Pikes level is the "endgame" of the weaponry until you get to the end of magic tech tree. Don't forget about civilization for developing your cities either.

three units of mages or if you don't have the crystal needed for them early game then use an hero with damaging spell. And if you have any units with magic weapons early in the game laying around, throw them against the banshee but be warned it will only do like 1 damage xD If you don't have any hero with damaging spell.. then well you have no choice but train mages, hunt down those crystal crags and upgrade them. Place an outpost on them if you have to.

[quote who="Kamamura_CZ" reply="16" id="3460970"] Warlock games do many things right, but what I like the most is the fact that a settlement is not a defenseless installation - finally, games like Civ5 and Warlock are getting it. The worst example of how not to do it is Conquest of Elysium, where you can lose a castle to a wandering deer - ridiculous. The population must be able to deal with minor threats by itself, or expansion is not really possible. [/quote]

What's wrong with creating islands and raising mountains to wall off enemies? I once had an Earth Archmage and used it's raise mountains ability to get Vergas to go stab someone else for once instead of me every single time. [e digicons]:grin:[/e] But I found out the hard way, vergas was so bent on stabbing me he took the long route just to stab me some more.

Your Settlement have to be right next to forest/river if you wish to build lumbermills and Piers. Unless you get lucky and the city expand into their direction. I can agree that's kinda stupid but oh well that's life. 1/3/0 What You don't have to settle on it if that's your starting tile well then make your first city a town. You will take heavy causalities cuz weak troops but until you get the fortress built then it will stabilize out fine. &nbs

I seriously can't wait for ZOC on monster lairs. No more longer I will fall victim to cheese from AI like when They settle next to dragon nest. Dragon never attack the AI city despite it being more powerful than six puny peasants. But when I evict the AI, sorry, the dragon didn't like it and attacks me the new ruler of the city and my army gets wiped instantly. Next one is even more funnier. Huge Dark sorcere
