Any good tips for starting out?

Some tips:

1. With the SHAMAN: use domination on the commander of enemy armies. Without the commander they won't move anymore. Several dominations may paralize your enemy, leaving only a small army for you to defeat. Make traps for your enemies by sending a single commander close to their base and letting an army kill him, so their army is far away from other commanders when you dominate its commander. For leaders that have high magical resistance, use the toten pole twice and the shaman once for nightmares, and use the last actions of the shaman for possession.

2. With the WARLOCK: After every battle, check how your fire and earth elementals are. Bind those that are wounded or worse. Multiple binds of these two elementals are cumulative!!! Enjoy your warlock with 200 hit points and one-shot-one-kill fireballs.
