Well I am also quite expanded:
I have water mages level 1, 2, 3, 4.
I have and can recruit blood, water, and erath mages level 1
I have many eaneries
the rain trick is quite self explantory: good idea and thx for it
for the following ones some more detaild wiil be very apreciated:
If you have earth magic use destruction in combination with archers.
Reverse communion with light of the northren star for soul slay.
Life after death + rigor mortis, if you feel a bit suicidal.
comunions are a bit difficult for me to manage; usually I got my mages killed

eanaries are N level 1, did I missed something? Poison cloud is N3.....
Finally: thx for the help
regards
