Re: Warlords III: Darklords Rising just released...
Turn 14 sent to Ralph.
Wasn't quite as good a turn as I had hoped, but I'm not complaining. Though I'm in 3rd or 4th place now. And at war with someone who had some scouts or something to spare I guess.

There are items in the item list that have the ability "questing" - what does that do?
Can't find it in the manual or online.

Also, a rebuilt razed fort only gets it to the lowest level. More gold is required for each step up.

"I resemble that remark." -the duly cowed.
Jesus said, "Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body."[Matt 10:28] God can totally destroy us.
Jesus also said, "For my Father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.”[John 6:40] Eternal life is conditional.
His disciple John wrote, "Whoever has the Son has eternal life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have eternal life. [1 John 5:12] Eternal life is optional.

Re: Warlords III: Darklords Rising just released...
It's annoying that the battle reports that I get at the start of each of my turns don't tell me how many units the enemies lost in any battles that I lost - they just tell me how many units I lost. I can infer some of that by looking at the map and seeing what's there currently, but I don't think that there's any way for me to tell how many units there are ones who participated in the battle vs. moved into the area in the previous turn but didn't participate in the battle. It's just part of the difficulty in inferring how my armies are doing, and any figuring out any issues with my army composition.

I've run into this same issue.

Could have been a bat (if Archinerd has those) or maybe something like a light infantry or other lighter unit (ie, not a dragon, or other tougher unit).
But yes, the battle reports leave a lot to be desired (especially if you win, you'd think your survivors could tell you what you killed and who all died on your side).

Re: Warlords III: Darklords Rising just released...
I was shocked a few turns back when I saw how many high level troops Archinerd already had. Now that I've uncovered a bit more of the map, I'm realizing it's because he has a castle practically every three steps! It took me until turn four or five until I even found the closest neighboring castle. Really put me behind the curve, at least in relation to Archinerd.

Re: Warlords III: Darklords Rising just released...
Woah woah woah.
First off, I don't even have the most castles. Dave has many more from what I can tell.
Second, I took a quest on my first turn (thanks for the reminder everyone) and the reward was some hardworking gnolls.
Third, I don't have bats, but I do have rats. This game seems to think bats beat rats more often than not.
Fourth, leave me alone! Keep your heroes and your bats off my lawn!

Re: Warlords III: Darklords Rising just released...
I think I'm doing ok, BUT at this point I'm pretty sure that I've made a few fundamental mistakes: (1) I suspect that my army mix is sub-optimal; (2) I got my hero killed immediately on turn 1 and it took me awhile to get a new hero; and (3) I only really figured out recently the whole "exploring ruins" and quest dynamics, which I think has cost me a lot of free troops.

Not necessarily that many - but it cost you a good bit of a combination of free (low end) troops, xp, magic items of a weaker nature, possible map discovery, gold.El Guapo wrote: ↑Thu Jan 23, 2020 4:51 pm I think I'm doing ok, BUT at this point I'm pretty sure that I've made a few fundamental mistakes: (1) I suspect that my army mix is sub-optimal; (2) I got my hero killed immediately on turn 1 and it took me awhile to get a new hero; and (3) I only really figured out recently the whole "exploring ruins" and quest dynamics, which I think has cost me a lot of free troops.
I've gotten more troops hired as mercs than I have from quests/ruins.

Re: Warlords III: Darklords Rising just released...
My hero turned out to be a summoner, so he can cast a bunch of summon spells. I think I made the mistake of wasting a bunch of upgrade points on three different types of summons, but maybe not - I just have very little idea still of what all the stats do. But the hellhounds do appear to eat basic units for lunch, more or less.Ralph-Wiggum wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2020 1:30 pmDo what now?NickAragua wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2020 12:36 pm Also, don't forget to use magic to supplement your armies.

My hero at this point is a level 1 necromancer. But it also appears that he can't raise the dead until he levels up. Which raises the question - is he really a necromancer at this point?

Re: Warlords III: Darklords Rising just released...
When you level up, some of your abilities to spend points on are spells. For the necromany, necromancy is an ability (that you can take multiple times).
Necromancy is automatic - when you get into a fight (and Necromancer survives), you raise a skeleton unit. I think you can raise 1 per level of necromancy (had to kill that many units too) and some of the risen will be wights instead of skeletons.
Spells you have to cast. When your hero (can be with his whole stack) is selected, right click. Option there where you get quests - next to that is an option to cast spells. You have to have the mana to do it.
Hellhounds don't suck, but you have better spells if save your points up (summoner has imps, hellhounds, demons (I forget ice or fire) and something like summon horde (this costs 4 ability points to get, think it costs 20 mana to cast, gives you a variety of all the other summons)). Hint - of these spells is FAR more beneficial in my opinion, as it takes longer to get, but is more efficient.
Summons (other than horde/legion type) summon 1 most of the time but can summon 3 of the unit some times.
Summon spells do not cost maintenance.
EDIT: Summon spells do not cost MANA maintenance. They do still cost gold upkeep. If you don't have a high income, summoning 2-3 legions can easily send you to negative income.
Other upgrade options can give your hero abilities like Chaos, Leadership, etc which works just like it does on other units. It won't stack if your stack already has that level or better. You get +1 usually and can take it more than once (to keep going up +2, +3 etc).
There are some other spells (Wizard and Shaman don't have summons), can give you things like Forcewall (+ some fortification), a lightening storm sort of thing that gives every unit in the stack the lightening ability (don't recall the chance) - that 1/2's a enemy unit's hits (if they only have 1, it kills them). These spells cost maintenance. Can make these cost prohibitive.
