"Overpowered" tricks list

6. You can ressurect them with evlin spell. Stoneskin is a must.
I havent go for no loss campaign but i was able to play with only blackies on imposssible. Even on nameless/shettera while striking there just after rusty anchor !! ( dont have to say that many players would suffer badly at verona at this point)
Few hardest heroes like Vlad vegeto, or that demon in castle in Shettera were too hard but only a few. I beat for example von cracow with no loss, while hes army was like 15 times larger in case of leadership. Black Knights just owns

Sorry, I do not know which spell you are mentioning

Is Moron Dark necessary as a companion? (I see he is often mentioned in relation to Black Knights)

PS. I play mage impossible without kiting or save scanner. Target: finish the game at all but I have almost no losses yet

Eviln is a Chaos spell that summons a dark cloud from a corpse that either kills living creatures or recovers a % of fallen under units that walks on it (both yours and enemy's).

Since it recovers a %, this means the more Black Knights you have, the bigger the number of recovered units.

Here's another power combo for you. Play Mana/Intelligence-based Paladin, use black knights, use 3 spells: Stone Skin, Eviln and Armageddon. Use the pet dragon to transform rage to mana (so that you can cast consecutive armageddons - mind you, they are astral damage, so dragons are not a good idea) and rule any arena

EDIT: Here's a link to a clip I made based on the last strategy I explained: http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthr...nt+day+paladin

OK. I have it under another name in my manual...

How to use it properly? When I used to play paladin I had this spell and used it only to kill enemies. (and found out it is usually quite too expensive for an unpredictable result)
I mean - how to make sure it resurrects us instead of killing the enemy?
Can Black Knights alone withstand the power of all enemy stacks?? I somehow cannot imagine that

[DGDobrev]

You should imagine that Black Knights + Stone skin + Moro Dark companion + his shard he gives you means:

1 stack BK with wicked physical resist
always retaliates
with black helmet you can recruit even more of them

Eviln is best used on a corpse, then you move your BK stack onto it, rather than attack. They will get resurrected.

EDIT: You should also be aware that once you do Necromancer Meshmere's quest in Montero shafts, he will turn dwarves into Black Knights for you (as long as you refrain from killing him for a while, since he has a bounty on him).

Hes not, but he helps. If u build your hero around blackies they are just insane. Geting a splinter of darkneess from moro gives them countlesS retaliation - priceless.
BK is high atack and high defence unit but its slow and dont have very high intiative but we can change that !
Dark commander from might tree, from mind adrenaline. Adrenaline is really awesome when u play 1 stack tactics. Now hes not so slow anymore, actualy hes now very fast and more deadly. There are 2 items which can make them very high in numbers, black helmet and second is rod from misticus(forgot its name)
I build my hero more like warrior for BK while Dobrev builds more mage,
