mean that academy will not cast own, inferior to necro, phoenix but will simply banish big bad necro phoenix. Is it so hard to figure it out?


I figured that out but saying that everyone elses silver bullets dont work or are inferior to academys is wrong, thats all, and i just gave some examples.

Just a little view on Heaven against Acadamy.

First of all, do you have to beat your oponent within week 4 to win? No you dont..! You can play untill your computer stops due to electrisity being off marked due to a better future powersource option..

So if you play with Klaus and get like 30 palas at week 6 then thats an ok force! If you also get tactics with him you can take out ANYTING the enemy has on the first blow! (Unless the enemy does something freaky to your palas..)

But IF we say that a 4 week game in what we want, then I would need alot of nice artifacts and goldmines to focus on palas.. I'd rather focus on archers! Um.. Not doing much math here, but aint it possible to get.. say.. 150 archers, at week 4? I might be to low, or to high on the number? So with Irana, or what the heck her name is, you can do some nice dmg! You dont need the puny gold that the first few pesants generate.. you need to build up hundreds to make a difference anyway! So train them into archers, use fotmen (or squires) as tank and shield the archers. If you get griffs then nice, they are not that expencive really.. Priests are not THAT helpfull, but if you somehow get Inq's then they are NICE but expencive.

SO.. You should try a split here. Marksmen in 2 stacks in the 2 lowest corners, 2 stacks of squires in the 2 upper corner, and the rest in the middle.. Get all the war machines you can get, hire all human heros you can aford to get their armies, get high morale and benediction (or is that bad?) and go nuts!

With a high morale you can also take along a strong nutral stack from a different town if that stack is good and large : )

And again, using a second hero to attack first to weaken the enemy, I think thats a good idea! Maybe a dark hero that can do frenzy or puppet on his djinns or mages : ) That could help alot!

Or does this strat sound stupid? Honestly, I dont know..! I only played the heaven campigns, so I have no real experience with them. Atleast not concerning rushing with them.

But as someone said, its not wise to use a might hero for rushes since you dont get the really good might units before too late : )

But if you aim at endgame on week 8, then might can very well be an option, but then again.. The enemy hero is a very good mage by then!

So, what town do you prefer? If you tell us that, then maybe we can mix together some nice strats for you : )

He doesn't need to. Divine vengeance comes next and kills all of them.

There are so many ways to stop a single stack.. Alternatively you can wipe them out with divine imbalance, if you don't have one of the 84539 spells that stop xbowmen. So no worries.

Sorry to burst your bubble.. it doesn't work.

Not really.

Then why won't you read some good guides first instead of wasting time for a poor strategy?

You can aim for whatever you want, if the opponent comes in week 4, you either fight him or run away and lose your city, and consequently   , the game.
