The long awaited Book 2 of LotA is out! After finishing the first mission and trying the second, here are some observations:
- The first mission was too easy. I played on hard and still never lost a unit in any fight. Most AI units never got a shot off!
- The first map is large with a lot of running around, fighting neutral stacks, picking up units, and such. Kind of boring.
- The story is good and has promise.
- Tried the second mission five times. Was attacked by a ridiculous Red army (200 Minotaur Guards, 50 Deep Hydras, etc.) in day 4-5 of week 1 every time. No way to win that fight with an army barely out of the gates. Either I'm missing something or this will stop everyone from progressing on this campaign. I welcome advice from anyone here.
LotA Book 2 Feedback
Stay on the move to gather levels and prolong the fight of course 
Do not attack until you are strong enough or you find good artifacts in the artifact merchants. Just keep breaking the garrisons and uncovering the map.

LotA book 2 3rd map
Hi, I need help with the Stela of Life (Estorica) - it requires me to find a way to bring someone back to life...
I realize it must be Resurrection and that's why there is a witch hut who teachs Light magic, but I don't have the spell...
My Towns can't have resurrection, I attacked the dragon utopia, the mages and the pyramids 5 times each and no luck...
Am I missing somthing?
Thanks
For those who asked about the 2nd map,
Darkstorm appears at day 4 hence you should take whatever you can at the start of day 2 (use the first day to take the lumber mill and the ore pit)
and attack the first garrison - DO NOT forget to buy war machines as they some times tip the balance - the general idea of this map is run and hide - it is a tactical map not always you should use all your movement as you are a bit faster than DS (you start with expert logistics) some of the portals take you back to the start it's OK that is the way to reinforcement (using a second hero to bring the troops to the garrison)
after some time DS will take your city this is the time to attack his (preferbly on the first day of the week for maximum advantage) when you'll have enough dark raiders and deep hydras chose which castle you prefer, fortify yourself there and let him attack you, he has ALOT of spell power but no mana at all so if you are lucky (as I was) let some Imps join you to take the sting of his spells.
I used alot of Phantom image on my raiders as his troops has some protection from elemental magic (maybe a perk he has maybe an artifact).
Good luck in this extreamly enjoyable scenario.

LoTA 2 Soul Maze
Andros:
At what level did you play this mission? I am playing at "Hard" and can put together an army of (approximately) 90+ Assassins, 50+ Blood Furies, and 20+ Dark Raiders just before DS arrives. The first garrison has 80 Minotaurs / Minotaur Guards and one group of 15 "special" Minotaur Guards that have 2200 hit points apiece! Harke can do about 1780 HP in damage with his arrow and between the BFs and Assassins I get enough extra damage to take out ONE of these special guards per turn (who, BTW, can cross the field and strike in the back row in one turn). In the six times that I have tried I defeated this garrison once, losing almost all of my army. My reward was a next garrison that had 25 of these "special" MGs.
How in the world can we be expected to advance past this mission?

2nd mission
for the 2nd mission where u have to defeat darkstorm and that other dude. i was able to kill them with about 90 assasin, 35 blood fury and some of other tier creature(meat shield against spells).
Spells i got that saved me was raise dead.
first thing i did when defending was destroying the catapult before any pieces of the wall break
placing bloodfuries near the gate so they can go out and hit stuff and return behind the gate.
assasins snipe down the range attackers.
after a few rounds they only got melee attackers left and their heroes will be out of mana to cast anything.
use raise dead and resurrect all the bloodfuries and assasins.
the hero's normal attack damage is rounded according to the hp of ur creature so u wont lose a lot of bloodfuries when he attack. so u can raise dead every few turns to keep ur damage to the max
i was able to hold the castle but the fight was very long
