What order to progress through Areas?

Well, you are obviously a much beter player than I am, since I had problems at freeing the Dwarf King's son, there were some really, really nasty enemy stacks! Got them all eventually, but only after I was (mage) level 15 or so...
By that time, all Darion, Islands and half DwarfLand were clear of enemy armies..

Preferable to finish the first 3 King's request to get the Rage Box ASAP.

That does not mean you are not good player (not to mention you play it your first time)
1.) game is designed so that this specific battle should be the hardest in the Dwarven realms - so it is intended by devs that players possibly "eat" up all eyecandies/combat experience candies / quests from these lands prior proceeding further (after you free dwarven prince - you are free to go to elven lands)
2.) I am usually level 15 before entering the dwarven mines, because I know hard battles await me, so I try to level up ASAP...(as I am literally afraid not be able to beat the dwaren lands and save/load a lot or even return back to easier lands for additional leveling...)

This strategy is very good, well prepared and logical...

only gap I would see in this strategy is - if you are able to beat the army when feeing dwarven prince - most units in Darion would be considered WEAK for you -> so you will get much less XP / Spirit XP / Money for beating them... not to speak you will be quite bored (fighting 40 lake dragon flies after you killed 40 demoness, 300 imps, 4 archdemons 45 demons... )

and for me (as I am not precise / Kasparov battle winner) it is impossible to win the dwarven prince battle too soon in the game... so WOW! - you really have to be quite piece of a player

It did all this without cheating, so yes, I am a great player!

Would like see ingame video from you battle when you win it only being on level 5 or so... really

At level 15 i completed the Battle for Castle Bogacho with zero losses, but it lasted for like forever. Those couple archdemons/demons/demonesses really messed up my army!! Thank God for Lina rechargers and the stoooopid imps. Mana Spring rocks

Basically,I try to lick everything pussy clean. Thats the most universal rule of such treasure hunting games. Clear all - scorched earth.Walk everywhere in the map.Clr everything u can,leave the strong ones for later when u level up stronger.

For e beginning,Do greenworth quests first,then go on to swamp.
It will be too tough at some point (when u have to hit the frog brother castle and kill the small boy necromancer). Then go on to arlania and verlon quest.Arlania has lots of sea booty useful. Dont forget the frog in the swamp,she can marry you and she is useful. Dont marry the the zombie girl in greenworth.The reason why I advise to go to Swamp first is because u ll find the inquisitor very very very very useful with the resurrection.U'll notice inquisitor resurrection is not level 1 resurrection and in the beginning,u see a need to conserve units.

Dear Gatts & Gamers of KB

I am wondering if I should proceed to get my demoness wife earlier. But i am only a level 19 mage. Thought of stocking up on those unicorns (both types) as they do more damage to evil units. Any advice if i can make it alive?

Also, do we get quest or reward for killing all the pirates in Western and Eastern Islands?

Thanks in advance.

Danny

In the Eastern islands, I think, if you raise the 'Moon Ghost' from the water using the spell from the wizard you'll get the 'Demon Killer' spell, could prove useful when you get to Demonis...
