Do not cast mass light spells! Cast ANY light spell except mass spells, coz then you will be AMAZED by Freyda's special. Let his most dangerous stack kills loads of your low level troops (shooting on Succubi may be a good idea here) Then cast a random light spell on any unit and watch that stack of Mistresses... Btw, how did you manage to take any troops from Ylaya? Anytime I tried to take troops from allied heroes, there was a message telling me that I can only give them mine, not take theirs?

@emilsn

No need for month 12. I defeated her in less then four I believe. But you do need the ultimate. Yeah, not easy giving up Summoning and not being sure if you are gonna be offered War Machines, but you have loads of gold in that mission, and two memory mentors ain't there for nothing. Two pieces of Sar Issus Regalia with bonus for wizard + whole Dwarven Sets= you are gonna cast more often then her , and expert endurance and deflect missile on all troops save the day. First Zehir's cast: PM on Arch Devils, atack Arch Demons, Second cast, vampirism on Titans, then go heavily Phantom with PM ocassionaly. Do not use Banish coz it's rubbish, the percentage of unsummoned troops is laughable... I attacked her with 400+ Grems Sabs, 400+ Magnetic golems, 90+ Battle Mages, 80+ Titans, ~200 Matriarchs, 247 Marksmen (that were adjacent to Titans and got PM destined to Matriarchs , although if they werent adjacent but just one square away it would be ) 80+ RR. Lost 20 RR's, 2 Titans (long live vampirism...) all golems, 100 Grems and ~100 Matrons. She was cooked by PM and Phantoms...


How do I get Ultimate ? Is it from an artifact ? I'm on level 33 with Zehir but keep getting hammered by Biara . I can't PM The Arch Devils . I'm getting really fed up ! Please help

I think the last campaign is the easiest of all after my zehir reskill to ultimate in campagin. I never lose a single troop when using zehir from then on until Biara on last mission and i really mean even 1 troop from the last fight of each mission etc. Well mainly because there were no strong undead in last campaign.
Actually the rest of previous campagin(except stronghold) would also be that easy if i find the combo before i played zehir with ultimate. Stronghold was quite easy too once i get his ultimate.

The fights with wulfan , freydra were rather easy with divine vengence spam , i never even need to use any rune. kurin too was easy cuz i had ultimate and the untame cyclops just rape everything. the dark elf fight was the hardest of 4 imo , i almost thought i was going to lose at some point but still i managed to win on first try.
Biara was raped , i just use all the tier 7 + rasha and succubus with 0 building buffs. I had alot of bad morale but who cares , they are just mainly to tank haha.

Hi guys,

I've just reached the Academy mission of TOTE and I have a question about the Academy upgrades.

I can't figure out the usefulness of Elemental Gargoyles. Unlike Obsidians they are not immune to magic and they take extra damage from elemental spells! Unless there is something about them that I do not know I can't understand why would anybody choose to take these guys? I mean are they just canonfodder for enemy spells and that's all????

Btw, so far I loved all the campaigns, they are all well done and have very interesting quests! Kudos, Nival!

Yes but they extend that weakness to their adjacent units so you can boost your destructive damage by 50% that way.

Elemental gargoyles are ment to go into the midst of your enemy.  Then you target the them with an area effect spell.  Since any unit around them takes extra damage from the spell.  Sort of suicide units.  Put the magnetic golems next to them and you can also boost how much you can regenerate of them.  You can even use circle of ice (with master of cold and cold death preferrably) so that the gargs are not actually damaged .  Place mark of the wizard on them for even more fun (as now it copies some area spells).

Doh, you are too fast elvin.  Yeah what he said.

Elemental gargs + Motw = Fun.  Elemental gargs + Motw + Wizards Luck (if you can get it) = A whole LOT of fun.

Thanks for quick reply Elvin and Mytical! That opens to a lot of strategies. Unfortunately I don't have any mass damaging spells yet but my Zehir is heading for the ultimate. Just for fun I'll give it a try and see if they work for me

Hi, i have a problem..on the first mission i kill all the night elves and it says my mission was complete but the senario dosnt end, tho i cant end turn either and sometimes cant bring up options.
Is this because i didnt complete the primary quest to meet Realag at the start? and if so how do i complete it. Also i didnt pass getting rid of the assasins as my secondary quest.
Sorry if theres already a post, i only briefly scanned the first few pages.

Ahhh! after many delays and breaks between missions, I finished the tote campaign.
Had to replay last mission though, to make sure I'll win with Kujin. So the game won't be bugged, and I'll be stuck with no creatures in front of talonguard and whats-its-name barb running around trying to enter the underground, getting the msg Zehirs got when trying to enter.
Once I did that, and got all those creatures in front of talonguard the fight was so easy. I only lost the angels and blackies since they were the one that could enter the fray first.
It was too easy actually.
The battle with Kujin was way harder because of the 3 stacks of dogs (make it 6 with gating). Wulfstan also had a tought fight with those succubus. Had to fight 3 times before I was able to win.

Good job Odish I replayed it once or twice too while I passed the battle with Biara on my first try, month 4.

@luna_park
Sounds like a bug Afaik the assassins are a secondary quest and you don't meet Raelag in this game, just Ylaya when you enter the underground in the beginning.

Hi elvin, thx for the reply.
the primary quest that fails is called "get information of queen isabel" it fails when i met ylaya. It tells me to met realag.
if i cant beat this map the regular way is their a cheat which will allow me to pass the map? surely there have been other people who has ran into the same problem

I meant the one with Freyda, in which you had to block the way of Nightmares. You have posted that replay in page 9 but the link is dead. Here is the dead link http://www.speedyshare.com/917250675.html
