MULTIPLAYER GAME

Multiplayer games can be played on a single PocketPC by selecting more than one Hero to be played by a human:

When a player has completed all of his actions, clicking the hourglass icon ends his turn and protects the secrecy of his movements. When all of the human players have finished their turns, the computer Heroes complete their turns as in a normal game.

Playing Tips

usually this games could take longer then playing against AI. For example maybe now you’ll want to explore more attentive your territory and not hurry to fight directly as you are more cautious. A human opponent is usually harder to defeat than a computer. So you might consider building your mage guild now (especially if you are a spell oriented class)

it is very important to loose as little troops as you can. This will bring a great advantage over your enemy. Use the fighting strategies I presented that allow you not to lose a single unit or loose only stack of 1. You’ll make money/ resources economy. Make even movement point economy. Every step it’s important as you must build little by little you advantage. Everything counts.

keep in mind that here you’ll have to make the good decision form the first time (normally no saves allowed).

if you are skilled and have confidence in you, you could try some rush strategies:

1) it is very important to surprise your enemy with unexpected attacks: early in the game if you can sense you got a better start then your opponent.

2) or you can attack his castle when his main hero in far enough to come back and defend it.

3) also attack his main hero when he’s not prepared and doesn’t have full army supply.

most of the time if you manage to win the fight between main heroes, you’ll win the map

if there are maps that have a key spot with many treasure and advantages (like some times in the middle), be sure to be the first that has control over it. The same with some mines (especially gold) or artifacts.

if you wait too long usually you’ll lose
