I guess it's because its too rigid -> lvl 1+2 before 3+4 before 5+6 before Dragons. Also, need mage lvl 3 for Blacks and tons of resources. Although they do have some great heroes, mana vortex is great (especially with town portal), and a few great creatures. Gunnar might be the best hero in the game with his logistics and tactics. Fortress - Level 5. Rune Priest. The Rune Priests are a special caste among the Dwarves, recruited from children born with golden eyes -- the mark of their god, Arkath -- who are selected and brought up as battle-mages. They strike the enemy from a distance and have greater resistance to their foes' magical attacks. Hero strategy: always have 3 main heroes: 1) Main hero with logistics, path-finding, wisdom and earth magic. 2) secondary hero who follows the first and in case some creatures want to join the main army, the secondary hero takes those creatures in his space in order not to loose them and keep the morale of the main hero high. Fire Magic is a school of magic, along with Earth, Water and Air Magic. There is a special rule in place that offers schools of magic more often as a choice when leveling up than the secondary skill learning percentages suggest: A new school of magic will be offered at least every 4 levels for Might heroes and every 3 levels for Magic heroes. My strategy for fortress is OFFENSE rather than defence. The early advantage for fortress goes with wyverns and serpent flies and so I usually build up my army with these two troops in week 1. Use the advantage of differenct of scout (i.e. you have better chance to find your opponent before he finds you). You gain new possibilities when you reach level 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15. The number of available combinations is different depending on the faction you choose, but usually it's around 30-40 buildings. What's worth mentioning is that during one game you can have few cities.
