[email protected] Tutorial
Move the horseman towards the nearby bridge. The controls are in no way complicated: with the pressed middle mouse button you move the surface, with the left button you select a unit and with the right button you deselect it. The movement is limited by the amount of ACTION POINTS (AP ) - their current status is displayed in the first status bar near the portrait of the unit (in the right part of the screen). If you manage to spend the horseman’s action points before reaching the bridge, click on the HOUR GLASS icon in the lower right corner of the screen. Take a good look at the control panel. It consists of three parts: map, basic character statistics and iconic menu.
Iconic menu consists of seven items: ‘HOUR GLASS’ that ends your turn ‘SELECTOR’ selects the next unit ‘SELECTOR’ selects the next unit with Action Points larger than zero ‘TENT’ important for mana and health regeneration ‘DIARY’ includes your actual quests, aims and notes
‘BESTIARY’ overview of all units that the player has encountered so far ‘MENU’ returns you to main menu Aside from TENT every item is self-explanatory. As soon as you get acquainted with them move the soldier to the other side of the bridge. The tutorial will then continue. Three guards fighting the skeletons will join your horseman. Try to move them on a common square – you will form a GROUP. Thus you will achieve clear dominance over the skeletons. There can be at most THREE characters in one group. If you would like to dismiss the group CLICK THE PORTRAIT to select (deselect) those units that you want to LEAVE stationary – that means they will not move with the group. The combat can only be actively joined by units that have sufficient AP; all the others become an easy target for the enemy because they cannot act. The actual combat takes place in rounds. Both sides (attacker and defender) first assign the roles to their units. The left mouse button selects the attacker as well as the target. When this is finished, the action can be started by clicking on the ONE sword icon. The outcome of the combat is decided not only by the best strategy, but also the qualities of the individual units. The attackers, as well as the defenders, have certain advantages and disadvantages during the fight. While the attacker has the chance to deliver the first strike (the only exception to this rule are mages, but we will come to that in a while), the defender can DEFEND weaker units by stronger ones, so you can select one of your companions as the target instead of the enemy. The combat rules are set up on three basic unit parameters: the attack value (the attacker’s ability to wound the defender), the counterattack (the defender’s ability to wound the attacker), and the defense value - the resistance against attacks and counterattacks. You will find all these values in the control panel, to the right of the four bars. The combat can end in three ways: With the retreat of the ATTACKER (remember: the defender cannot retreat from combat!), by using up the AP of all the participating units, or the utter defeat of one of the sides. This last possibility only happens when all units of the defeated side die: The number of their Health Points (HP ) falls to zero. During combat all fighting units gain experience points. How much they get mostly depends on their active participation, on the extent of the wounds they caused, the extent of the wounds suffered, and (obviously) on the number of enemies killed. After gaining enough experience, the unit advances to a higher level, in which its qualities improve and it gets access to new spells and abilities. On the control panel to the left of the experience bar is the very important MANA indicator - the amount of points a unit has at its disposal for spell casting. Before you move on, select a unit with mana and, by clicking on the hand icon (you will find it right beside its portrait), open the spell book. From here you will be able to choose almost any spell (or ability) which is currently at the given units disposal. ALMOST, because it does not always have enough experience - and mana, too - for the more demanding and powerful spells! One of the most important elements of the game is casting spells during combat. It is done in the same way as the casting on the main map but the effect of the spells is in many cases different from their global equivalents. Remember that during combat
you can only cast a spell on ONE unit, whilst the effect on the ground affects the entire group. Spell casting always has the highest priority in combat - first the mages cast their spells, and only then can the fighters attack each other (or the mages). Obviously, casting lasts for a certain time: First you always cast NEUTRAL, then DEFENSE and in the end the ATTACK spells. The speed is also influenced by the LEVEL of the spell: the higher the level (that means the spell is more complicated), the later it is cast by the mage. The first of several aims of the tutorial is conquering the town of Rockhole. It is in no way different from other confrontations on the map – but beware! There can be more than one group of units assigned to defend some towns. The attacker is not victorious until they are all defeated! Towns are the centers of trade and power in Empire of Magic. Here you can hire new units as well as train the ones you already have. Y ou can obtain new information here or take up quests. Most of the towns in the Empire will be your ally but this doesn’t mean your journey will be a walk in the park by any means. If you manage to conquer a town you will need to assign your own resources to protect it; you cannot be a town’s protector all of the time. In the lower part of the screen you can find seven unit cells. The first three form the 'active group'. You can choose one unit from this group that will make trades or undergo training. After leaving the town, the 'active group' remains selected - it can be moved away from the town. The second three characters are 'defenders'. Their number is determined by the attributes of the town. If they consist of multiple groups you can see them all by clicking the arrow dividing the sixth and seventh portrait. The seventh cell is reserved for the RESTING characters. They can be seen by clicking the arrow in the lower right corner. Character regeneration in tents and towns acts the same way: If the character had full amount of action points at the end of the previous round, his mana and health are increased by the amount of their "regeneration" ability. If the character is not in a tent or town their health is regenerated by one third and mana by one half. Spells Druid Healing Powder Heal Character 'Healing Powder' heals 'Heal Character' heals characters in target group. three health points to For every level of the target character for every caster, characters in the level of the caster. group share three health points.
