So, Im stuck in this mission. The Gilraen or what ever is allways my prob. He is just too bad and I cant get enought soldiers for him. Any tips for me to beat this bush******?

Me too, tried some different tactics, managed to beat the main enemy but then his mate with an even larger force comes strolling round the corner....Doh! Can nearly beat him too but didnt work so got him to chase me round the central ring track to build up a larger force. I clearly pissed him off cos his other two mates came running along with equally large armies!! AAARGGHHHH

Try to get the Frenzy scroll; this spell helps a lot. There are many possible strategies that were described on this forum. For more details, use the 'Search' feature on this forum

In Campaign 2 Mission 3, does anyone know where a Frenzy scroll is?

You find it behind the red border guard in the middle east

1. Buy mage guilds and get good damaging spells for your hero. A fireball in the midst of all those ranged enemies does much more than the hero's basic attack.
2. Plan your town build. Succubus's are great for all the slow big creatures like Treants guarding border guard tents. Figure out what resources you need TOTAL to get where you want, and then use your hero to get random resources and mines in order for you to able to buy 1 thing a day, without turns going by.
2. Capture the first Sylvan town on the bottom quickly, and build it up. First build a tavern then the city hall (+1000 gold a day), then level it up to 9 and buy the 2000 gold city hall. Do this with all captured towns and you will have a ton of gold and can buyout all creatures easily on day 1.
3. Visit Morale and Luck world objects before going into a battle.
4. When the week changing starts putting all those sylan units like hunters all over, have your hero go to all of them. I had maybe 1 out of 5-10 groups join me. 100 free hunters are nice.
5. Get expert and fast gating. On larger enemies with retaliation, wait with your stacks, waste your gated in creatures by attacking with them, and then get no retaliation strikes with your normal stacks. Never attack with a 'real' stack if you can wait and get retaliated on a 'gated in' stack.

Ty for tip...but that is just basic stuff. This map is still screwed...at least on hard. Havn't tried on normal yet.

Since your inferno town can only go to a very low level, I just built the town center in it and then focused completely on building up the first Sylvan town.

This one scenerio really put me off to the point I haven't played in 5 days.. Gilraen should have a cap for troops and this should be for all enemy heroes. His "radar" is sad since you can't step out of the demon area. With a cap, if you play long enough you SHOULD be able to win if you don't do anything stupid, like loose your castle. I played this scenerio for 3 hours and was pushed back to the demon area, I might as well given up long ago.
