Hint: Unlimited defense: Choose the Life Warrior, and when you get to the playing
field, double click on him and move The Peacemaker artifact from
his hand to his backpack. His defense will keep going up. Repeat
this to build the defense indefinitely. This also can be done
with the same artifact obtained when the life great temple is
conquered with the Life Mage Lord. Note: This trick does not work
with v2.02. DC1Knight.
Hint: Control opposing army: Note: This trick works better with fast troops. When
in a capital and attacked by an army larger than your own, just
run away. If your troops can get away, and you do not get into
any more fights until your turn, then you may be able to control
the opposing army in a limited way. Although you will not be able
to move the army, they will be on the bottom panel instead of
your characters. Double click on them, and click the disband button.
You can not disband Lords. It a Lord entered your capital, move
in with an army. This trick can be used to win the game if the
Lord who enters the capital is Balkoth with his unholy armies.

Hint: Get Possessed unit: Get a high level order wizard who knows the spell Possession
(or a high level mage of any kind that has the Amulet Of Control).
When going into battle, cast the Possession spell on any of enemy
unit that is two levels lower than your mage. Before the battle
ends, press the computer button. If you have won the battle, the
possessed unit will still be there, but it has now joined your
party. If you do not want to press the computer button, cast dispel
magic on the possessed unit during or after the battle. With this
trick you can get lords who already have taken their great temple
(even Balkoth and also renegade only units such as the elephant.
This also works with the "Walk Among Us" spell from
death. Sebastian Cassten.
Hint: Boosted Defense: Select the Life Warrior, Mage Or Thief. When Asked
for the difficulty repeatedly click on "Easy". Your
Defense will begin to rise. J. Smith.
Hint: Undead army: If you have a Dark Necromancer with the "Raise
Skeleton" spell, you can use it to create skeletons from
defeated enemies after the battle. Since three skeletons are one
unit, if you raise less than three after a battle then heal using
crystals at a temple, you will have a full unit of skeletons instead
of just one or two.
Hint: Easy win: Use the following trick when an army is too powerful
to fight head on and you have access to Fairies. Save the game
and send something to make sure the enemy has no missile attack,
no flying creatures, and that the battle has rocks that cannot
be walked on. If the conditions are met, buy a full army of Fairy
Slingers and send them in. Do not attack immediately. Instead,
position the Fairies over the rocks and places Foot Soldiers cannot
reach, then attack. If there is a Mage, kill it first. The enemy
army will walk toward the Fairies and stand at the edge of the
rock while the Fairies attack until the entire army is destroyed.
This can be done with any creature that flies and has the opportunity.
Dragons can take out a numbers a Archers and then defeat the
rest of the army without losing any more hit points. Ann.
