Re: Tips for newbs - just add
Don't equip armor or low level weapons on military commanders. It just replaces the equipment the commander comes with.
Learn to choose assassin targets with care. They almost always lose to knights and other mounted commanders.
This is not Civilization. You cannot always do everything you want/plan to do. You can only build one commander per castle and must choose between military, priest, research, site search or battle mages. At first, with only one castle, this is a huge issue.
Do not waste your money/resources on the lower military units.
Learn castle admin values and what type you are building. A province between two castles who admin adds up to 100% will go to zero resouces which means you cannot recruit in that province. Murphy's law will mean that a valuable indy mage is no longer recuitable.
The people that complain about the poor AI are experienced and skilled Dom3 players. Until you learn the 7 skillion complexities of the game, the AI will kick your ***.
Magic users can kill your (seemingly)invincible armies.
This is a rock/scissors/paper game. There is always something to beat everything else. As a collary, you may not have the reasearch gems or mages to play the card.
