It was obvious that we
must fight the snakemen. The area around was still wild and Ssrathi
constantly were mounting raid upon the Empire settlers.
We appeared in close space with west and north entrance. Miranda begun
construction of the main building and by the time she finished, the
first enemy wave knocked on the door. It was taught, we didn't even
managed to convert the nearest mines, which should have been Miranda's
first task. And we were just recovering from the little set back when a
giant dinosaur appear from the north. Miranda dropped all tasks to agro
the dinosaur, while the tower finish it off. At last we managed to build
a good defense and a small group was dispatched to explore the lands.
They reported a Quest Giver to the south-east. Quest Givers would be
natural entrench points for Miranda, base defense would be handled by
towers and small level armies, and another level 3 unit from the retinue
would be second operation squad in the future. Or at least that was the
plan. Another Quest Giver was found to the west. Miranda approached it
and a Greedy Dragon(quest name) offered his service for 2000 gold. I
stopped all gold expenses immediately and when the reward was gathered a
huge blue dragon joined me for the mission. The enemy were doomed.
Optimistic enemy heroes tried to do their best, but in open terrain the
dragon was unstoppable. We quickly destroyed all enemy buildings and
victory was ours. After that mission, Empire race allied with us, which
gave us the option to play missions with their race. But Ssrathi became
enemies. Empire though is very useful for collecting specific unit in
the retinue. They have a building that call random leader from any race,
friend or enemy.
