Hints and Guide

Expansion

As in all the Warcraft series as soon as you start your campaign go like hell to build and gather resources . If your starting from the beginning make sure you build your base close to resources especially the gold mine . Make sure you have enough workers to mine and gather lumber for you . A minimum of five is suggested. You need to build resources such as the watch tower ,amoury , lumber mill and hero's alter as well as deploying the units . Your resources will probably become fairly low . There is not much point having a hoard of gold tho if your men are all dead so keep developing and expanding . You can move your town during the game if nessesary and still continue to produce from old structures while still being nice and close to a new mine .

Have a Hero or Hero's

Hero's are ESSENTIAL to the success of your campaign you need there powers to support your troops .

Which Hero's

Humans

The Paladin is useful due to his Healing and Resurrection spell and is good for beginners . The Mountain King has good defence because of the Thunder Clap which will slow your enemies down . The Archmage is also good for spell casting and can summon the Water Element.

Night Elves

The Demon Hunter is good on the frontlines but needs to be protected fom being killed .The Priestess of the Moon is a good attacker and can level ground units with her Starfall spell.

Orcs

The Farseer is a good to start with and he possesses varied spells .The Tauren Chieftan has a reincarnation spell which brings him back after he is fallen which probably makes him the most useful. The Blademaster using his Wind Walk can create havoc with the enemy .

Undead

Death Knight is probably the best to start with and has similar capabilities to the human Paladin . Dreadlord Has two spells which are usefull Carrion Swarm and Sleep which work well in defence and stalling your enemies.The Lich has excellent Spells but needs to be protected well as he is very easily killed . This Hero is for more experienced users .

Know your keyboard controls

Take the time out to read and know the keyboard controls . This will help you to be successful in your campaigns as you will be able to react fast enough to incoming attacks and employ strategies more effectively .

Above all else this mission is about keeping the Demons at bay for about 45 mins . How for Hard Difficulty send Wisps East and West to the two gold mines begin two or more bases . Get out as many units as you can to and upgrade as much as possible .You can also block off one passage through the trees with Protectors so that Undead can only go one way .
