Once those two fall, the last enemy won't be able to out-produce you and you can fight on even terms. 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.
AGE OF WONDERS 3 WALKTHROUGH MISSION 4 FULL
Several of them went to the Shadow Realm in search of worlds full of riches while those that were left behind lost their power when Merlin destroyed the last Shadow Gate. Because of their awesome powers they brought prosperity to the lands they ruled. You start with a few crappy units and a few heroes. The statues represent Wizards from Age of Wonders 2. You are supposed to attack BEFORE the enemy can outpace you too much.
All your games (Story, Custom or MP) all contribute to your 'Pantheon'. They are actually setup and played like your custom games infact the two are basically aligned now.
AGE OF WONDERS 3 WALKTHROUGH MISSION 4 SERIES
There are many threads in this forum full of advice about this specific scenario. The SP campaign is actually a series of 'story realms' which basically take you through the plot of AoW IV. 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. Makes it easier to deal with the scaling production cost.Įdit: forgot to mention: the first several times I tried this scenario, i intended to grind Turiel's cities and vassals into dust, but it simply wasn't feasible for me because his units all start out so buff and it was a constant exercise in frustration.I'm an old AoW veteran but it's been a while since I last played. Oh and also: once i had 3 cities (all underground), I put the seed in my weakest/furthest away city, the root in the next, and the heart in my throne city. Oh and make good use of those teleport improvements! put them close to your seed/heart/root. It might be worth placing a defended outpost or two on the surface between the underground passage and Turiel's domain because, like a dope, Turiel could have walked past but instead he sieged my outpost for like 5 turns with 6 stacks when i had only 5 turns left on my countdown. Then i started my countdown immediately and Turiel's forces never even reached me. Then Nimue (ally) started a Nature countdown (I had my Order countdown ready to go but couldn't once Nimue started), but after ~8 turns they failed it too. At one point Turiel reached the Order countdown and i began mobilizing to pillage the closest improvement, but he paused at 12 turns remaining and i guess the invading neutral army pillaged him (didn't have line of sight, so i dont know exactly what happened). i picked the pyroclastic boon (where enemy provinces blow up every couple of turns). Like others have said, I went underground and played very defensively and focused on knowledge.
