Umm, dunno, was just saying. Game goes faster and faster, so middle map is not necessarily middle game. Now going to kill Piquedram month 7.

Gerwulf is dead 4/1/2.
Need A/R,Clone and Level 3 immune to take him down. Air sheeld,Prayer,stone skine and his remain shooters damage was reduced vastly. At some point I have only about 30 out of 190AD left.
Then I prevail. Once he run out of spell power he was mine
Next one please

I am only trying to beat my score playing MoS, it is not a competition. You should not rush it if first time, you may have unpleasant surprises. Be cool
btw, I never played entirely MoS before and I must say it is the best challenge, much more interesting than others. I am always short on mithril, resources and army. They can move twice farther thus I am able to visit everything in the 2 weeks delay. I am way behind the other factions, but much faster in time spent. Already killed Galthran and not even spoils of war unlocked, while with MoS and MoE I already had fire bonus.
Lost ten devils and 25 efreets to Galthran, miscalculated the demons damage. Too tricky battle to reload, let it be.

A must
As Salamandre pointed out once,all heroes knowledge a player has is required to play the map.
As I am in month 10 before Zydar,so I play very slow,now I read the manual.
I confirm the reading of the Heroes Manual is a MUST for a player who wants to play faster than he plays at the present moment.

Holy crap Salamandre, do you need to hide the teleporter around Thunar castle that much... I was panic for a while for not being able to find it  !!!
Anyway, I hope there are some ways to trade your stats with something else (Mithrils, resources,...). My heroes' stats are reaching the cap soon, especially those who farm CBs since they don't really need Atk and Def. And the same, there should be something to allow you to trade Mithrils with (to avoid being too redundant): resources, more armies, etc. These allow you to manage your kingdom's power much easier imo.

I agree but my problem is about players different skills. If you play at maximum of capacities, you will never have extra mithril and finish map in 10-13 months. If you play for 20 months, it is obvious you will have extra stats and extra mithril. I never had too much, neither skills or mithril, because I don't like to hang, going straight for next area every time.
Also you have the arcane tower to balance stats, I use it constantly.
Some people will even find the map easy if playing slow, but no solution. I could set a time limit to 15 months but this will halve or even more the number of players, create frustration etc.
Warning: TEW IV is not compatible with final ERA 2, released today. I will think about a solution in next future. Right now, it is only compatible with beta 4-5, which you all are playing.

Oh and is it me or Cornucopia's bonus is still a little small. 100 resources per day, 5 months = 5x28 = 140 days = 14000 resources, which equal about 2 cap CBs... Not to mention if you finish the map as quick as possible it gives even less bonus... So some buffs?!!

As many of features on almost every XL map, some become useless later. To name a few examples, learning stones, mines, neutrals, windmills, water wheels, shrines, and many more. They have no use after 10th month, in any XL map. But they had their role at right time.
I am now month 7, playing MoS and I don't have enough resources to unlock spoil of wars, I am very far away from double cast as well, need 70 more upgrades, CB give 50-100 resources/hit. And I am very happy with the two cornucopia I found, without them I couldn't even dream about getting frenzy at 50%. If they give more, they will break early game. As they are, they become useless after month 12-13.
Gimme better idea then.

So what about Cornucopia gives recources depends on time or the destination you have reached (you could make something where you could upgrade them in certain places )rather than being stable?! Because vice versa with you, I'm new, so when I get them CBs have already given thousand of resources...

Very good idea, I will implement it in update. Cornucopias will be upgradeable in various places, faster you are, more resources they give. Thanks, welcome to modding world. 
Done:
Starts at 100
After battles, message of upgrade and daily resources quantity changed:
Wystan:200
Piquedram:400
Gretchin:800
Thunar:1600
Just defeated Piquedram, change applied. Will make update tomorrow.

Hard
If not very hard to make,cornicopia may give mithril too!
Not the same number as the number of the resources of course!

Yes prices are high, but when a CB gives 6000 of each and one naga bank 16 millions, this means MITHRIL at market.

How true it is.
That' s the way I like it. That's why I prefer hard maps.

About Platinum Shield, it stated that in battle your mons get + 10 Def, so that equals +20 Def right?! I think it's a nice idea to transfer all the stats on item into + in battle, since this can easily avoid the skill cap. For knowledge is it possible to change into + x spell spoint in battle?!

Is that normal? After defeating Olema, can't get bonus from logistics master, only mysticism bonus can be taken-which is not bad at all
