Take the Test at the beginning of the game...

[Kathos]

Tutorial = 3 free artifacts (1 random), 2 free 'no loss' battles towards the medal, some basic spells you can sell (excess quantities over 1), and if you took the yellow dragon then something random from digging. Every dig is potentially magic crystals, runes, or spells. Always worth it, I would say its not worth skipping ever just spam click through all the talking crap but make sure you aren't hitting the wrong buttons!

[Zechnophobe]

If you didn't know, by the way, the best way to 'no loss' these battles is disbanding all your non paladins. Then it is super easy.

Wat tutorial are u talking about?
I didnt see any tutorial, u mean the contract quest that the guard gives u?

[bucazaurus]

I let all my starting troops in the castle before i take the tutorial .After i finish,the game will create a new starting army.This way i will have double the amount of troops to start with ,at zero cost.

[Metathron]

Some troops they are...

[bucazaurus]

Is not the troops . Is the money you save in the beginning since you will have to buy troops anyway.

[Metathron]

I never buy any of the troops I start with, because there are always better ones available.
