You need to attack fast on this map.įor one thing, it's notable that the human player in this mission is NOT a dreadnought, but a theocrat. In general, though, Jacco is likely right that your problem is strategic rather than tactical. Sundren might be able to learn Smokescreen, though a cheap and effective spell that will greatly reduce the harm ranged attacks can do. Magically, the Wind Ward and Armageddon spells would help a lot, but frankly you're not going to have the time to research or cast those. (except flame tanks.) Unfortunately, these units are rather slow and have a harder time charging the machines. (Though cannons will still hurt them.) Their fire attacks will also hurt machines a lot. Unfortunately, the low-tier versions are unlikely to survive a barrage of cannon balls and flames.ĭefensive, it would really help if you managed to take over some of the Dwarven cities on the map, which would let you build Forge Priests and Firstborns, both of which are immune to fire and so would help a lot against Juggernauts and Flame Tanks, the most dangerous dreadnought units. One thing that helps is units with the Demolisher ability, such as Goblin Marauders, Dwarf Axemen and Goblin Big Beetles. In addition, your goblin troops often inflict Blight damage, which machines are *also* immune to.

Many of your units rely on Spirit Damage, which all machines are immune to. In more general terms, facing a dreadnought with a theocrat can be tricky.
