Re: Tips for newbs - just add
Need to bid high for mercenaries in MP - its not like SP where you can get them for just a buck or two over the asking price.
Watch your supplies - starving units have heavy morale penalties. You can click a unit and push S to grab any starving units. Use that to separate them from the rest of your army and/or to send them somewhere with enough supplies to feed them before they start getting diseased. Be especially careful with large units like elephants.
Try and get astral mages to accompany your armies. You need them in the mid to late game to protect yourself from getting Mind Hunted.
Realize at some point your conventional troops will be less important than SCs and powerful mages. You should have some strategy for getting SCs, such as Tartarians and Elemental Royalty.
If you are playing against a nation with assassins, protect your commanders with bodyguards.
