I posted this today as this week comes snowbird's fix for the game and someone has mentioned to me that they have a fully functional copy??? come forward and let's find out why your copy works so amazingly and all others (generalization ofcourse) does not. I'm just curious as to see who will come forward. I have a copy i preordered and it is functional but I do have some of the bugs people are experiencing in the technical forums over at snowbirds official site as well as what has been discussed here. I just finished the tutorial so now unto the campaign i shall go. My copy needs major updates which snowbird is going to do for sure. For the first person to have a fully functional copy that needs no updates, you shall get a cookie :)

I am on the first shard of the campaign after the tutorial shard and the only bug I have seen is the hero missing text name. :)
So far it is an awesome game!


I plan to play soon some random maps and continue later with the story. I am not very good and I make mistakes, so I should get better and continue later with the campaign. The game is hard even on the easiest difficulty :P

awesome. i'm at the same progression level, just after the campaign and trying to figure out which shard to tackle next. The game is amazing for sure and even on genesis i have a hard time with the difficulty level. I play on beginner and it is so hard for sure. I have different strategies for different troops that i employ in the game and they seem to be sound as some of these are from veteran russians with the game from a while ago.

Does your journal have 11 steps of the keys of truth quest revealed?

I am on beginner too :P My tutorial hero was a warrior and it wasn't that hard, but on the new shard I am playing scout now. The hero is much weaker, I mean his health and the game seems to throw more enemies on me.
One of my provinces was taken by some thugs. So I said to my self whatever I am taking it back and showing them who the boss is. Unfortunately my army was too small and weak. They were like 10 troops. :) No idea really, I wasn't paying attention to my journal. I was just playing, conquering things. Or you mean this quest is after the tutorial shard?

mine does.

After you finish the tutorial shard, the first 11 steps of the "keys of truth" (neutral win scenario) are unlocked in your journal simultaneously, breaking the campaign.
You should check out your journal in the astral void to make sure its not the case, it would be a shame to have to restart the campaign after playing a bunch of shards

10 troops seems like quite a bit for sure. here go here for some advice on strategies:

Thank you! Mmm just loaded my game and I need help haha where is my journal?

Well so much for playing campaign mode, LOL. i'm gonna start playing them individually from now on. I had no idea that it was a campaign breaker.. now the fix they put out your gonna have to start all over anyways for sure. why put the time and effort in if you got to start over anyways.
