In 1.02 humans were the strongest. Now i think undead have a slight advantage.

the best strat is a dreadlord at least with infernal and vampuric act and sleep. attack with scourges and necros. then raise the dead,(make sure you have upgrades or they suck) otherwise the other team is ****ed, unless they have a dryad with abolish magic or priestwith the same. and for air, i prefer gargoyles and remember to pack the attack with loads of abombs and banshees to take over units.

This is stupid, it should be a unanimous vote for NE, you're posting in an NE forum. Over-all, I think that the undead are the best race. Necromancers are awesome, get those with a meatwagon or two full of corpes and just drop those corpses and have a frenzy. They're spell casters are amazing. That's all I have to say.

Night Elves start of the best, but they're easily beaten when at the middle of a game. Orcs are cool, but Taurens suck for a last force. Humans? Towers, towers, towers and lame heroes. Undead? Kick ass Spirit Towers!

spirit towers suck, if moon wells constanly regenerated, or could regenerate more had healing power, they'd be good, they have less hit points than a spirit tower and a spirit tower is constantly defending. NE gets robbed in a lot of aspects when it comes to defending.

what the hell NE owns all. i go mass chims and make DoTT with potm. hide your hero when shes nearly dead, micro your chims and make some DoTC for roar only. when the enemy is running move your potm then you will get aura and your chims will have so much + dam.

what i recommend here is to upgrade strenght of the wild first hotjey W at HH, then upgrade breath hotkey B.

since 1.04 hunts hav ebeen nerfed and archers therefore own. 3 hunts with potm with 1 bear and rejuvinate and mass archers owns all. with enough tanks archers rip up all.

the only thing feared are the grags with leech aura that rip up the chims, what you do here is get kotg lvl 1 with thorns aura and use that. The thing i do is quickly breath down the main house tier 3 of the UD so they cant make any gargs anymore. use goblin zeplins and rejuvinate so they dont die against towers.

I was just reading up on dispell, i was looking for a counter agaisnt those dang nercers. Something i want to try is detinate wisps. Anyone have any idea how effective that is against those dang skeletons? It sure is cheaper than dispell scroll.

they have a bigger detonation radius than a wand of negation... but getting the whisps to the detonation point is like impossible, effective though if you can get them close enough without being killed.

Here a senerio,
Move your army to where ever. Hunts in front archers in back, 5 wisps trailing. If you know you facing the undead. The battle starts, they raise the undead. If you are starting to loose at that point. Fall back with archers and hunts, past the wisps. The skeletons will follow so will there army, Detinate wisps. By that time nercers should be out of mana and you can try and finish off the nercers and what ever else they have. Hows that sound? Possible?

I usually have 1 DH and 1KOTG + some 5-6 huntresses and 10+ dryads(fully upgraded). When you encounter a group with undeads that raises them as skeletons, the dryads will dispell them and they will lose 300hp, which is quite alot on a skeleton. Then they will realise that they will lose, and if they dont have portal scrolls, you entangle hero with KOTG and slay it. I use DH to mana drain the mp from the sleep hero thingy :)

Dryads don't dispell summoned creatures such as skeletons. They only dispell magic such as Bloodlust, inner fire, or Roar. Those are the spells that I have found them to dispell, if they do more, then so much the better, but I've never seen skeletons dispelled by Dryads.

Undead always kicked my ass until I started using a large majority of dryads with dispell, usually I dont bother to even research the dispell magic, but now I do

I still have never used dryads to counter "raise dead"... I'll have to try it, but I don't think it works.

wisp detonations

wisp detonation isnt bad when fighitng against the undead. When they go mass necros and you run out of WoN then you ahve to take some wisps with you. The best thing is in maps like l;ost temple send the wisps to the other side of their army and detonate it on their necros. Then they dont have enough mana to make any skeletons and you have your iwn. When you leave dryads alone witout focus fire they usually dispel the skeletons. But miost of the time you are likely to focus fire so therefore you wont have dispel. To undead i usually go mass archers with enought hunts to tank for the archers. Against good players you will have to hide your hunts when they are nearly dead and get some scrolls. Another recommendation is getting sappers to blow uop their expansions when they even try to make anything. and zepplins for the ghoul counter isnt that bad.


Humans have the best dispel but whgen priests are dispelling they cant use innerfire so necros are worth the money to make against humans.

Against orcs skeletons are hard to counter but they have healing ward and they static charge whcih works for necros.






has anyone treid going mass hippo+fiends against mass ghouls? its not that nice. i would rather just go chims.

please send some feedback please.

Undead owns NE end of conversation. They got kick-ass spirit towers and even the halls of dead+black citadel can attack. they can make one of the best ****in defenses yet and then create a huge army. prepare for battle!
