I always assume I'm a bit slow when it comes to following other peoples instructions so;

1. Download and install "Eador: Genesis" from GoG.
2. Download and install "patch_eador_-_genesis_2.0.2.7" from GoG.
3. Lunch the game and start a new {several players/ one computer game} with these setting "Expert, 7 random expert opponents, large map, disabled diplomacy, default generation settings".

4. Exit the game and copy/paste your map and save file into my save game folder allowing it to override any files of the same name.
5. Play the game for ten turns or so taking notes and then upload my save file to dropbox for someone else.
Does that sound about right?

To 1. and 2...yes, but you dont need to start a new Map...because you have to download the Map from the 1. Post.
Otherwise you will crash the game because there different Infos at the base Map and the actual turn X Map ;)

Instead of starting a new game..you have to create a "Player" for Profile 1, if just create them..the 1. will be Player o(and his date called Campgain o, Map o, Game o,...etc.) and the 2. Player 1.

Then download the Map from the first Post and place it at the save directory, then download the actual save and place it there to...now you should be able to "contiue" the game via Eador->Singleplayer->continue

Aside from this, you can play up to 15 turns because it's a large Map.

I am playing this atm, last 5 turns..

80. both to swamp country.
81. scout - explore, mage going. Adventurer - arrows and flag, sold. Enchanted grove, storehouse to scout, repair.
82. Nothing. +23% to horse cost :(. Magic well.
83. mage found mandrake, 4 goblins. M - level, thaumaturgy, going to hilly province. scout ->*FoS *EC for 68
84. crypt in tannerside. Scout Suppressed riot attacks medusas.
85. Malachite amulet(trophies), summon fiend and Ogre guard. Mage -explore. Fair wind on scout-> mage.
86. explore. extravaganza to tannerside.
87. M found knightly order, leave to scout. Undead have vamp and ghost.
88. Scout->knightly order, swapped troops, better for mage, M - nothing
89. M - nothing, S - ranger's cap. Explore
90. Mage found orcs(7), win, fire blade, round shield. EC for 112. Scout takes fireblade, going to demesne, mage -> heather range.
91. Spend 200 gold on assasins. Stables. Scout-> Reaper's Burgh. M - explore.
92. 59 gold from winemaker. scout - attack undeads. M - nothing.
93. Scout - hero's chainmail, level (pathfinding 4)->tannerside. Pathfinder's guild.
94. FoS rioted, -250 from ambush event.
95. Scout found goblins with slugs, healing staff, Tannerside rioted, scout suppressed, mage found goblins, level(wisdom), quest completed

*FoS - forest of shadows.
*EC enchanted coffer.

Scout will find strong ambush soon in this province, repair him. Mage should finish quest, I think we need to make enchanter from him (mage/com dual), so take spell duration/wisdom/thaumaturgy only.
Or, even better - fire him, hire warrior. Build T2 necromancy.

We should ally lizardmen for ticket from this wet hole.

Got it.

Yes..i fear hiring the Mage was a fault...my fault to be honest :)
It seemed usefull first, we had a large Pile of Crystals and more Crystal income then Gold...but 10/Turn is not enough to support him, he started with Necro :(..and we found several usefull Items that should allow a warrior to be independent early and spare us Gold.

For the Alliance...i allready thought about it too...but wasn't Diplo III needed to start a bargain with the Liazrds?

I'm new to drop box so let me know if this link has issues.

96. archer =repairs and explores, mage capital
Swamp country – Granary, cap builds lookout tower

A mage runs off with 57g

Current gold = 60 and 985 gems [income is +59] but archer has no troops and needs repairs… not my finest hour, sorry guys!


(fs)= forrest of shadows

Uhh what was the problem with the mage?

1. Bad Luck, he started with Nekro..while we're going more towards good/lawfull

2.We missed to "talk" about our plan for the wizard...i aimed for a pure Mage DD, Gremilon for a Mage/Com Supporter...so..together with Nekro we had allready 2 "wasted" Skillpoints at Lev 5..slowing his progress..but we miss the spells for a Pure Mage DD anyway...and the Gold for Mage/Com Supporter :(

2.We found several good Items for a Warrior, allowing him to become independent early and save us the Gold for a 2. Army

3.There are places where we could progress with a Warrior after minor effort/time but not with the Mage for a long time
