they generally expect you to build up the first town and get the phoenixes and dimension door before venturing too far out. but you dont have time for that! and you are proving that you do not need the sorceresses. if you build up the town they are generally overpowered, when combined with dimension door. well done so far!!!!!

16:20 - the first ninja edit hahahaaa and as far as item #3: i think its fine to leave everything in, for completions sake. however, i totally understand cutting stuff you think is tedious. as long as you let us know you are cutting it like you did for this video, there wont be any confusion. i have learned a LOT watching your playthroughs! in this strategic masterpiece of a game, you have the option to weigh all aspects when planning. balancing risk versus playing it safer is always being considered. i very rarely take risks, as i build up the towns before anything else, whereas you take maximum risks at all times! i love it! hahahahahaa i will be incorporating more risk taking in my next playthroughs. Cheers!!!

1. Another campaign done (expansions next). Thanks for watching :) 2. One of the hardest most annoying maps I've ever played :D 3. I skipped/cut some of the clean up at the end, let me know if its better kept in for future. 4. Diplomacy is ridiculously overpowered when it comes to the final battle. But can easily win without it. I wish Archibald had some extra growth in this mission same with Roland in the other campaign. 5. Peace at last (3:14:40) 6. Final battle (3:43:10) 7. I don't understand why Corlagon appears in this mission if I defeated him the previous mission?

Lots of mistakes in this episode. I should have taken the Crystals instead of gems and rushed crusaders but worked out anyway :). Dwarves for the win
@RavenSnore5 күн бұрын
@@MethodicalGaming there were no mistakes. that was a speedrun level effort you just did! consider this: you see those two unoccupied towns in the middle of the map? i spend all my time in the beginning building up the three towns before venturing out, and by the time i get out there, those two towns in the center are already occupied and well fortified. you did the opposite of that, and instead of building the towns up, you ventured out right away, and collected all those dwarves! thereby pushing the enemy back to where they never even grabbed those two towns in the middle. and you didnt need them either. ahahahahaaaaaa WELL DONE!!!!!

@@mohammedmahmoud2193 knew I was doing something wrong, I thought it was if they have the payload or not and not based on whether you attack a target. So as long as they have ammo I thought there was damage immunity. Don’t need them anyway :)
