Skin of Oil Tier II Tactical Spell (Unit Enchantment), 100 Research, 7 Mana
If you feel I've missed out an important detail, want to add your own experience or advice, or simply want to give your thoughts on the guide, please leave a comment below. That being said, my recommendations for each element are merely my opinion almost every combination can be quite playable and have their own advantages. This guide is meant to go into greater detail for each spell, compare how they match up to one another, and to see what kind of role I feel each best serves. Furthermore, while the Tome of Wonders is an incredible resource, a lot of its text is misleading or not fully explanatory of what each spell is capable of. While specializations have lost a bit of their clout from this, they still fill an important role of customization and can greatly augment how you play the game. Age of Wonders III differs from its earlier iterations in that it has a much greater emphasis on your leader's Class rather than his specialization. They were the source of most of your abilities and magic, and let you tailor your leader into whatever role you saw fit. Some other races get their own amusing tricks (Elven archers with Modern Warfare training are scary, for example), but Humans get a lot of all-around small bonuses and synergies that add up if you're going down the Dread route.In the previous Age of Wonders games, your specializations were what defined your character. You can play a momentum game, locking down territory and resources. However, one later upgrade that Humans get, is that their Builders can build heavily discounted Outposts/Roads/Fortresses note that when you build a new City on a Fortress, that city gets a free wall of the appropriate type.
Really, your main weakness is that you don't get any "move bonuses" on the strategic map you don't get bonuses to move through mountains (like Dwarves), Forests (like Elves/Halflings), Swamps (like Goblins), etc. Two of the better Dreadnought upgrades boost Armored Units, making them defend better, and cheaper. With Mariner, Fast Embark, and eventual ability to research the Sabotage ability, they can become discount naval frogmen of a sort.Īlmost every Human unit has the Armored trait (except Civic Guard or Priests). Human Priests provide healing via Bestow Iron Heart, and Spirit Damage although Spirit damage doesn't help against Machines, it does help quite handily against Undead/Necromancers (especially since Necromancers can negate weaknesses to Fire by building an Embalmer's Guild).Ĭivic Guard are fun to spam early on, due to getting Volunteer (you can have two Guards for the upkeep of one other Militia equivalent). Personally, I feel that Human Dreadnoughts are a solid way to start off, for the following reasons:
