Default Re: cheats

It's not a cheat, but comes close... Take Ermor as your race. Then choose Ashen Empire special theme. With it, you will get free undead troops anywhere where you have dominion, the more dominion the more undead. Also, your dominion kills population at an amazing rate... So, anyone conquering your provinces will have to fight starvation. The undead have their weakness in the Banishment - a spell even the lowliest priest can cast to kill of most undead he faces. Force of 5 indie priests with few bodyguards can kill off many times larger undead force with ease.

Also, as you won't need any gold and people are going to die anyway you can take some 'free' points from scales. Take ALL basic scales to -3, with temperature you should go for cold because some of your undead have cold aura which is better in cold lands. As you need gems to summon your mages, priests and better commanders, you should consider taking Luck and Magic to +3. With this combo, almost all good events you get will give you magic items or gems.

Then take as high dominion as you can, the cheapest castle and but the rest points to your pretender. You need some death to summon your first mages, but you should go to 9 or 10 as it gives nice blessing effects for your few unholy troops.


AI doesn't understand supplies and does not buy priests, so your game will be easy. Be wanred though that Marignon will be hard opposition. ALL their commanders have priestly powers, excluding spies and assasins. They do have a stealthy priest, though... Just leave them out, choose a big map and try not to get your pretender killed before you have some mages and/or priests. If you want money, alchemise gems.
