What would you do?
What would you do?
The idea is to set up real game situations and ask what others would do. It's open to just about anything from new player stuff to advanced complex strategies. The only rules are that it must be from a real game and it can't be something that already has a million threads about it (like best creature, best town, gold or experience, etc).
It can be something that you really want to know the anwser to, something that you think will be a good learning tool for others, or something you think will make a good discussion.
Provide any information you think can make a difference in what decision is made. It's your choice if you want to say what you actually did or what the results were.
I'll start with a simple one.
Would you attack the box? Would you do it this turn? The road guard is lots eyes and horde halberdiers. The mummies are horde. The mino kings are pack. Marius has 10 spell points and arrow, slow and cure.
I attacked the golems this turn, but I won't say what the results were yet.

Hmm
Nope, don't open the box. I say go for those halberdiers. The treasure chests and resources they guard is far more attainable thus making them more valuable. Tough call.

The Minos are tougher then the Diamonds.
You can actually win losing only Cents.
Make sure you got your trogs,Any fodder you can muster.
Cents are the best since you can go up the screen 6 steps.
The diamonds have 5 so you can manuever maybe 2 sets of them away.
While the others may follow or go after the trogs.
Your other army can take care of the rest.
Split the cents in group of two on either the left or right side.
The other creatures excluding the Minos right now can easily be defeated.
You can even defeat the eyes since iferno is faster.
Fodder like Cents helps also.
You can take the land in a few days with the right chain.
Explore new areas by day 7.
Week 2 day 1 you may be able to take on those minos while you explore other land.
Make sure you plan ahead by exploring with scouts.
Predeict how your oponent will play.

Of course using Melphala the hottie, your D will help out alot.
Edit: of course try to defeat the easiast first.
Your chain can hit all creatures in a couple days.
Make sure the main is near the Diamonds & pass on the arties etc.
Make sure you got as many creatures as you can.
Remember the Pandora may have good spells.
Usually close by it may be good exp for mel

What trogs? You see my full day 3 army.
Would you use Mephala or Marius as main? This will probably be a fairly short game so not much time for farming.

The Dummies should be your first bet for your main.Get the Pandora.
Maybe a descent magician to fight the Eyes.
You may lose some creatures but those arties Will help you.
wait then attack.
Most likely go after shooters.
Try to bring weak many fodders to run up to the eyes so they can possiblt shoot them first.

I should have done better. It can be hard to make diamonds dance sometimes and they charged me. It was a 5000 XP box and you see the results. The secondary skills is why I prefer Marius over Mephala. Mephala probably would have gotten luck and mysticism:.
I lost most of my army. I will have efreets the next day though.
Hmmmm, was it worth it? I could have waited for sure.

I'd say go for the hallberdiers.The golems may be 10 or 19 and they are magic proof.I'd cast slow on a stack of them and keep my imps alive cause they're the biggest damage dealers.Then i'd get the recources and wait for another week to pass.I'd have citadel by now,and 6 pit fiends

Like i said go after the dummies first with fodder.
You can wait another day or so to go after the diamonds
Remember I did not have much info to make a full reply.
DOnt split your Efreets lol.
An Empty pandy = Magic you can not get
Go after the easiar creatures first then tackle the harder ones.
All done in 2 days.

LOL dude it looks like you can not hit the Halbiers without taking out the eyes first
Do a chain attack.
Follow my strategy, you can take it out in 2 days.
Maybe 3 if your chain sucks going for the gem pond
Edit:There is only a select few spells he can use on the Diamonds.
I think Bibanic can figure out the spell dept

In my opinion you should first explore and find the other towns (what they are), take the troops inside and use them to take the lv7 dwelling on first week (if one of the other towns is Dungeon then it's big priority of course ). Take the lv5 dwelling too if no Dungeon town of course. Or if you think it will be a short game take both dwellings but visit the Dragon cave last. You should attack the lv7 dwelling with anything but without efreets since devils will attack with no retal the stronger units. Taking the towns means more income, more troops to make more fights, the rest is chain with an objective in mind for the 7th day.

You can not go down but thats what the chain is about.
You dont need much to take a town.
It's not easy taking on 3 devils week 1.
Orless you got lucky & you got some extra creatures.
It is very hard to get any devils early

I would use Mepha as main for sure. She is way better than Marius. I dont know how the other part of the map looks but I would probably turn around and come back to that area later. All fights there are to tough. Those golems are likely to be very close to 20 since they guard a lvl 3 scrine and a box, and even if you beat them there are no other good place to go after that. If you want that box you should place Mepha close to the golems this turn after beating the gnolls and then bring your 2 effrets next turn. Then attack them with gogs, 3 single imps, imps, demons and effrets.
