You can slow it down using the - key (+ to speed up)and set the default speed in the options. That makes a huge difference.
The most important tips:
- build a forge immediately
- seize other building patches, especially recruitment platforms next.
- start build an army, and send it to that fortification that the enemy will attack first (but keep enough recruits to be able to dragon transform)
- try to avoid major confrontation until you can transfor and help your troops out.
- Once you have two ro three recruitment citadels, you can build a larger army. Assign a sizable queue to each forge/factory, set a gathering point, then you can spend time as a dragon, while your army gets constant reinforcements. Once you feel ready gaterh your army under your dragon and head out to conquer.
Served me well through the first battles.
Or, research armor first, spam in about 2-4 of them, and wipe all of the enemies in 15 turns(constantly reinforcing your armours with more armour) and get an achievement in the process.
As i've said, using only armours and devastators, the game gets unbalanced, and you can easily overwhelm your enemy, also if you have about 60%+ chance to win, just send your starting units to the enemy base at the start of the skirmish battle and you win.
