Man, those Lea's Avengers are badasses! They got my ridiculously powerful avatar before I could even get near them!
And I like Orcs and Trolls even less. Well, let's hope the Dark Elves are cool...
I used about 8 ice towers. After 6 the first Avenger came and died. I built 2 more, the next 2 came and then the last. My avas were safely behind the line, used ranged weapons/spells. AFAIK, they're lvl 18, hm? Yes, Whisper is hard... Which lvl are you for them?
Remember the mosaic quest? I built about 20 ice towers <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" /> around that place, activated the mosaic - crept up to the place where the enemies spawned and built towers again <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />
Oh, the Dwarven axe throwers helped me against "Lost all Hope" => Amra's grave. And without Orc Totems and Troll stone throwers/towers, I wouldn't have cleared the Rift. And, errhm, I like the Elven Titan, it's an Ent!
If I play it for the 3rd time, I think my ava will have the name "TowerLady"... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />
You know one other thing that bugs me about SF? It's the fact that Quest Items and Valuable Items are in the same Inventory compartment. You never know what you can sell and what you have to keep. Sure, some items are sell-proof, but some aren't, and if you sell them, you have to buy them back :s
I agree <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> - after clearing a map I spend a lot of time rearranging everything: one page swords, 1 page helmets etc. As for gems: I always keep one in store and don't sell it. About quest items: Yes, they should have made all sellproof, so even those gems that are necessary would be safe. In some cases I lurked the Spellforce Forum first before selling.
Stormrider, do you remember the ill hermit quest? I'm sure, he didn't attack me in my first game, in my 2nd one he did <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ouch.gif" alt="" /> - wish, I knew what I have done wrong. I fear I busted a subquest, I should have got from him.

Oh, yes, if I take care of the people I get on that map, they remain and can be used for further probs, didn't know that I could re-use them. And it is really easier playing a fighter, I can kill enemies at a far lower lvl and don't die all the time.
