Taking this early should give you enough production power to defend the city from counter attacks.Īnother thing to keep in mind. I believe it is a relatively large city with a spelljammer by it. What seemed to be the key when I played it (AI updates may have changed this) was taking Carishar's city that lies to the Southeast of Laryssa's throne. It's been a while, but here is what I remember. It might be worthwhile to settle another city if you can do it relatively early so you have more than a single city to produce units in. Before the AI stopped city spamming as much, usually there were two cities to the southwest of Laryssa's throne that you would have. Is there some trick to this mission? Even if I replayed it there is nothing I would do differently, I never loose any units until I meet Carishar and there is only one path to take.ĭo you start with a settler in this mission? I forget. I thought I was over the hump at that point, but now I am stuck - Laryssa won't come near this new group so I'm on my own. I was only able to do this by constant reloading until I got a situtation where I got Carishar to attack both my units and Laryssa's units at the same time. I've already beaten a huge group of Carishar's high Tier units. There is no way I can come close to beating this group. I have 8 units, most of which are what I started with.

At around turn 30, with one city to produce units, I'm facing two stacks of units consisting of 6 Archon Titans and some Wraith Kings, plus other Tier 3 units (12 total). I choose to side with Laryssa, who is no help to me at all, she just wanders back and forth doing almost nothing. Now I am stuck on Matters of Duty, the fourth Commonwealth mission. Once those two fall, the last enemy won't be able to out-produce you and you can fight on even terms.So far I've had little difficulty with the two campaigns on normal difficulty, apart from the timed mission which really annoyed me but I still managed to finish on my first attempt. The easiest way to win would be too bee-line for the dragon and then use it to defeat the Goblins. If the Goblins are building Shadow Stalkers, chances are you're too late. The longer you wait, the bigger the gap grows. The enemy starts with a big empire and big cities. You start with a few crappy units and a few heroes. You are supposed to attack BEFORE the enemy can outpace you too much.

There are many threads in this forum full of advice about this specific scenario. You're not the first to struggle with this.
It's proving to be surprisingly frustrating for the third mission in the game.įirst off: Promised Lnad is the second mission, not the 3rd. Was I supposed to be turtling and building for a lot longer than I did? Was I supposed to find and build up my allies long before starting the war to conquer the region? The first orc town with the new hero and his backup gets attacked by a big beetle and a warbreed a few turns later the rest of my army is chasing around the enemy orc warlord and his giant pack of hellhounds, powerful shadows are coming from underground. I found the friendly orcs, brought the leader to the dragon, and the elves and now I have more fronts to protect that they can just squish. Now I'm at war with two out of three players, I have no idea where any of their cities are and they have massive armies stomping around with high tier units. I built up an army of low tier units and summons, lost much of them taking the first goblin city.
I've built two cities in addition to the starting one, trying to get as many treasure sites under control as possible. It seems like the enemy is just too well entrenched and can outproduce me. The third mission of the elven campaign is proving to be a colossal pain in the ass for me. I'm an old AoW veteran but it's been a while since I last played.
