![]() They get lots of lightning attacks, and are pretty mediocre unless facing shadow demons. Dwarves get low movement points, but when moving underground they are actually faster than most factions. Runemasters are one of the few tier 3 units that can brawl with human Knights and reliably come out on top. You don’t need to be too creative with dwarves, their basic units will win 1-on-1 with most other factions’ and they get access to the best siege units too. They also are all poison resistant, a very common attack type. Dwarves are top-tier, their units are strong and durable, and they all ignore underground terrain penalties to both movement and vision. Dwarf cities get bonus production speed.Their units are frail and weak, and even though most of their units ignore forest penalties, their movement speed is so slow they will still have trouble keeping up with most normal factions’ units. Halflings are the worst faction in the game. Halfing cities get bonus population growth.Their ultimate is a little lackluster, but the game probably won’t last that long if you’re playing elves right. Elves are awesome, they get the best tier 1 archer, a tier 2 mind control unit, and all their units are lightning fast, immune to forest terrain penalties, and heavily resistant to magic attacks. At least their scout cavalry isn’t slowed by forests. Frostling units are pretty universally awful, Yetis are the only unit that can take a punch, and their ultimate unit is embarrassingly bad. Their tier 4 unit is kind of weak for ultimate units, but it’ll still rip chumps up. Don’t waste your money on elephants, their high hp doesn’t make up for their low attack and defense. They are basically humans with slightly worse stats but a few extra special abilities. Nomad cities get no bonus production, but can pack up and move somewhere else.An extremely strong faction with no weaknesses. Draconian cities get bonus research, Their units are all fire resistant, which is great because fire attacks are quite common.Their ultimate unit can mind-control, it’s great. They are a little weak in a straight-up brawl, or against units with high resistance scores. Tigran cities get bonus gold, their units get lots of long range attacks and debuff attacks.Their tier 4 unit is the ultimate logistical enabler, but won’t win you any wars on its own. Their Knights are great to have, and infuriating to fight against. Human cities get bonus production speed, their units are mostly boring melee units with good stats.Neutral civs are good to start as because you can add units of other factions easily without them being more than slightly grumpy about your alignment.Explorer is the best perk to start with.War has the best city effect (build troops with silver medals already) and both War and Order give great quest rewards (income blessings, dragon summons, whole-battlefield nukes). When choosing which shrine to build in a city, go for the shrine of war or order.Most of the time the spells are well worth it. Unless you go 100% with one element, you’ll never see the most powerful spells of that school. When choosing your elements, the more elements of a certain type you pick, the more powerful spells in that school you will get access to.Try not to waste xp by having gold-medal troops get killing blows if you can help it. Normal units can level up twice, getting a silver and then gold medal on their portrait. If a unit never kills anything, it never gets any xp. Units get xp based only on the killing blow.If you intend to use them for spell support then you can let their defense slide some. Resistance is nice, but not super necessary. Focus on Defense first to keep them alive. ![]() Heroes are not quite as powerful as in Age of Wonders 1, but are still extremely good.towns – View all towns in the current map.cityspy – Toggle spying of enemy cities.instantprod – Toggle Instant Production.explore – Toggle Explore the whole map.You can repeat multiple times to enable multiple cheats.
