the mission that youre talking about is the one w/ the elves attacking from the north and the other faction to the west, and they are just constantly nailing you from like 2 minutes into the mission. Yeah, it's a bitch.
Like most missions, towers are your friend. Once you get Dwarves rolling, towers are really your friend. I like those little guys, I cant decide whether I like Elves or Dwarves better, they both kick ass. YOu definitely need to get the mage and rogues guild rolling even if you dont intend on using either of the heroes, due to the fact that they provide both magic and poison weapons respectively.
This time, I'm kinda doing it differently in that I'm not going for raising a ton of uber-minions every time. I instead create a guild each of pretty good lv 8-10's just to secure up the homeland, then I throw down a Hall of Lords and bust out my level 20's that Ive been building from mission to mission and have them start wrecking shit and leading everyone into battle. Warriors, meh. Rangers can be cool, but Elves are so much better. Rogues are probably the personality that I like most in the game. Theyre cheap, they have the best quotes, they know when to run, they go after all flags, and once they get their stun they really can turn the tide of a battle. The wizards can be cool, but theyre just perma-soured on me due to how many have died so inconveniently. They always tend to run right at the front of the pack as well, just irritates the hell out of me.
I'm just coffee buzz rambling now, bear with me or move on fair traveler.
I'm playing the Steam version right now, and it seems that in later patches they intro'd a few new abilities for the heros. I love the Clerics. I dont remember them having that force push type ability before, where they send an opponent sailing like 20ft. There's a couple other things that Ive noticed different, it definitely behooves you to patch up to the latest and greatest.
I think MP may be fairly infuriating in Majesty, due to not having direct control. I'd give it a shot tho.
I thought I was going to play Drakensang, but apparently my win7x64 setup doesnt want to install it… I'm appealing for help in the Drakensang forum, I'm hoping that I can get it sorted out because it looks like a cool game.
