"Qian" Walkthrough

[Biobob]

Ok, this is just going to be a short walkthrough, so that you guys who read it can (maybe) learn something, or try yourself with other solutions.

Map download is here -> http://www.maps4heroes.com/heroes3/rati ... =1&id=1066
Lets start:

Pick artifact as starting bonus, I didnt check if it is needed, but you dont need ressources either.

[Biobob]

First we are going to kill the enemy of Yog. The key here is to wait for the troll to get morale, in orderto hit him again after that. So, first you get all spells off (curse as well)



Then you defend until troll gets morale, then you can hit and kill one



Fight is now won, just rinse and repeat.

[Biobob]

Next on the list is thant fight. You can win it the easy way (just move towards him, sacrificing your peasants), or you can do as shown. Let enchanter get haste, and position troops as shown.



Now he will kill himself.

[Biobob]

Now its Darkstorns turn (You can clear the shipwreck, but is not needed, so I wont show how to, its easy however)

First, blind the dragons, then get a horde elementals (I prefer Air, you can do with any), apply fire shield on them.



Now attack him, and he attacks you, wait for him to go down.

[Biobob]

Verdish will go next. Get all the stuff, and buy the war machines (ammo cart is not needed, but I like it )

It should now look lile this



First aid tent can only have its turn if one of your units is damaged, so you just apply one of the protections and move forward. Enemy will throw magic arrow and attack, and now you can heal yourself.



After that, its easily won

[Biobob]

Now following is one of the hardest fights, you have to think in a completely new dimension. First, dismiss 7 golems, and align them like this. Also, unequip the armor.

[Biobob]

Funny thing here is: You need to lose the fight! Otherwise the enemy of the fire wall lady wont come out. In addition, the faerie dragon enemy will need to get to level 6, otherwise he wont be killed behind the border gate.
But he has got learning

Ok, in the fight, you only need one spell, the mighty curse. You just cast it every round on the enemy, and hope for him to bounce it back on you.



Once that happens, you move forward with the cursed troops.



Do this over and over, fight is finally lost (may require some luck, in one attempt the same golem got cursed over and over).

[Biobob]

This guy gets some necromancy, and assembles cloak of the undead king

Tip: You can get one of the spells, but it is not needed, I'll show you how to defeat him without (you can try the other way).

[Biobob]

She walks one step down, then we end our turn.

[Biobob]

We are now getting attacked, the hawrdest fight is following

First round, fly to the spot shown, and set one fire wall. Round 2 you wait, and set another one.



The fly left, and set fire walls again

[Biobob]

Set a fire wall in the way of the chevalier again, and move to the spot shown.



Now, set a fire wall left of you while moving up, the knight will go the left way and hit himself.

[Biobob]

Set one fire wall next to the litte stone, move down. The horseman will hit you, but you can take one



Then move up again, just to set said fire wall again, move down now.

[Biobob]

Set another firewall, so that the enemy will get hit 4 times.

[Biobob]

From there on it is easy, just trick them around a bit, and let them go the left way.



You can also make them go through the niche



Fight is won with one fire wall left.

[Biobob]

We are getting attacked

I am gonna show you how to do it without the offered spells, it should be possible with them as well, but I didnt try.
Well, let the crystal go out, hypnotize the devils, and attack the catapult.



Now block your troops, wait with the devil, destroy the catapult and come back. Do the same with the rust dragon.



After the dragons are gone, just let the devil stay in the moat and wait for him to go down

You now get some zombies, but they are not needed.

[Biobob]

Tazar takes the left way, gets a negative amount of faeries, then the fire wall lady takes the black key tent. Attack the last hero

Cast frostring on the enchanters.



Now cast forgetfulness, fight is won.

[Biobob]

It is done





However, most of the times I showed you solutions which were not wanted (at least I think so), you can still try for yourselves. Just like all other Aeris quamarine maps, try them!

[Salamandre]

Thanks, looks very interesting. Just a question: what does negative faeries army?

[Biobob]

I think they just do negative amounts of damage, thus invreasing the number of creatures they are attacking. The funny thing is that they move only once, after that first move, they stand still. A battle similiar to this is in Phoenixes live, where you have to attack your own ballista.

[Warmonger]

Every time I think I've seen everything already, you guys come up with even crazier fights.

One question: how did you blind Gold Dragons? Is it Orb, or some bug?
