Utopia in a Month

[DaemianLucifer]

You can easily get 150+ crossbowmen in 1 month if you aim for them,and clearing that utopia in one month gives you some 20000 gold,loads of resources,artifacts and experience(I doubt that you can get any use of the spell,because youll need expert skill and its just 1 in 4 chance youll get the correct spell,but really thats not really important).So it really is more than a bit advantageous.If your opponent is your equal,and you both have 50-50 chances of wining that map,suddenly those chances become something like 80-20 in your favour.

People have said that this is cheating, or exploiting, or that the AI is weak, but really, I think it's just really good strategy.

I think it'll actually only give you spells that you can learn. At least I've never seen it give me any text about "you find Conjure Phoenix, but you can't learn it".

[DaemianLucifer]

If you dont have the expert magic,and are below level 20,I think it will give you nothing.

[Gaidal Cain]

Yes, but it will always try to give you a spell you have the skill to learn. It doesn't matter if you have expert light or expert dark when visiting specific utopia; you'll get a spell no matter what school you have.

That I didnt know.Pretty useful info.Thanks.

"Hydras in the first week? I mean not to pick on you, Val-Gaav, but everything is so much easier in easy-settings:)"



not on easy ... I actually get them in first week on 100% and 120 % .... with 10 sulfur on start it's easy .... and with 7 sulfur it's also to be done you just have to locate one sulfur pile and you have 7 days for it ...

[DaemianLucifer]

It only depends on whats the starting level of your town(and of course what guardians you get in your mines).

It only depends on whats the starting level of your town(and of course what guardians you get in your mines).

Specifically, you need a level 3 town to start, so that it will become level 9 on day 6 (and so the dwelling can be built on day 7). On easy, I think you start with enough resources to build it, but on normal and higher you will need to find some.

@Qurqirish Dragon



Actually we where talking about h3 fortress and h3 hydras ... there is no town level there ... and the only thing you need to have hydras + castle week one is gnoll building build on start (which is true on 99% of all maps)



Aside from that you need resources , but as I said on nornal and hard you can do it ...

[Wulfstan8182]

wow! that was really a strategy and not a hint!

[MASTER JOANNE]

[Wraith]

this is easy also with over 100+ crossbowmans divine strength and good luck or not still,btw you are pretty screwed if there is guards like:8 green,4emerald,6 shadow and 4 blackies

@emi_emi: Hold the stack with left click then drag it to another slot while holding shift button.

[emi_emi]

thanks Saturas! you made me a happy player :D:D

[Guarderman]

With last stand and 2 peasants in each stack, it's even safer

magyarul nincs elefordítva?

[Ravenheart87]

Nincs, de szerintem a képekből elég egyértelmű, hogyan csinálja. Ha mégsem, akkor tessék megtanulni angolul.
