First fight dragon decides to kill a house.
Second fight hero has mass poison and gets peasants killed.
Whats the best strategy for a dwarf in this event? I never managed to score more than average... |
Try to put a bait for such situations. If your opponent have a drago, move invokers into range. If you afraid that enemy may cast poison - put spaerman close to the patria but not too close the civilians (or use invokers instead of spaerman). Similar tactic with the barb stun and liches. |
for Skoczek:
Thanks, thats how I played this event every time. But it’s hard when the damn civilians are in front… |
gotta send your units as bait, especially vs 30 fkin speed rune dwarf units. if they in range they dont speed.
i lost some peasents as one fight had like 10 2-4 stacks of poachers that i couldnt kil and summoned a bunch of bears and went straight for peasents. lost some more due to barb swinging strike. i have however played around meteor from cyclops and plague shot pretty well. but like last event you really are at the mercy of the ai if it decides to just fk you and hit peasents |
In addition, the vanguard report that the robbers are throwing their main forces on the armies of the factions they know well with the usual battle formations and are a little bit wary of especially rare representatives of the less popular factions, with whom they have almost never met on the battlefield before.
Which factions will be less popular? |
that is a great question and one no one knows the answer to except elf and de, and apparently barbarian even though i never ever see classic only fury |
Which factions will be less popular?
I would say unorthodox factions like Shadow barb, Darkness demon, Classic wizard, Tribal, Unholy necro, Fire dwarf. Pharoah used to be good too in this event but I don't think that's the case. |
Yes following factions I think too :
factions like Shadow barb, Darkness demon, Classic wizard, Tribal, Unholy necro, Fire dwarf. |
An important tip, for those people who miss it. If possible, try to avoid placing your troops in 3x3 tile with peasants. Your civilians won't come into fireball or shot from liches or barb hero hit. Ricochet shot from mistresses and chain lightning is still something that you can't control. Also beware through shot from magi and it's upgrades. Also watch out for darkness casters that can cast mass decay. |
Here goes my 75 peasants in battle #7 :-(
Already put my dragons there as the bait, but that prismatic breath ...
Any other way of possibly preventing this to happen?

for bp99:
I guess if you had placed your dragons at 1:9, 1:10 and rogues probably at 3:12, the dragon would have came for rogues. Prismatic breath always reflects on troops behind the tile on which crystal dragons hit. So those civilians might have survived for sure. But there was a chance that crystal breath would trigger on one of the huts or it may not. Even if it did, you would lose only 30 population instead of 75.
This was not your fault. It's just that you need to be really lucky with what you face and where peasants appear. |
Oh, yeah, that's a good idea. Sacrifice a hut for 75 peasants. |
Battle #10 too hard.
RNG is insane 177 spies will almost kill anything and 466 outriders with mobile ballista will shoot down the rest :// |
Do the battles get harder if you place a tower?
Till level 5 I faced very easy opponents and now I am thinking of placing my first tower. |

so does this mean in terms of gameplay will there be less troops for those factions or just better AI/ army counter compostions? |
Never click on auto |
for Dark-Ninja_lord:
I assume you learned that the hard way just like the rest of us? :p |
Missed by a narrow margin... Just took control at right moment. |
