Part 4

Learn advanced tactics for Warcraft: Orcs & Humans, including Unholy Armour on Daemons and effective catapult destruction.

Unholy Armour on a Daemon

This tactic involves casting Unholy Armour on a Daemon, making it incredibly powerful and difficult for opponents to defeat. In one recorded instance, a Daemon with Unholy Armour was able to destroy a defensive line consisting of 8 knights, 15 archers, and 5 catapults, before being reinforced by two more Daemons.

Mass Destruction of Catapults

To effectively destroy a group of enemy catapults, especially when they are clustered together, you can use a diversion tactic. Send a raider (a unit that can draw enemy fire) and a catapult. Instruct your catapult to attack the furthest enemy catapult while still out of range. As your catapult advances, send your raider ahead and keep it moving. The enemy catapults will likely fire at the moving raider, missing due to its movement, while your catapult can then destroy the clustered enemy catapults at its leisure. The key is to keep the raider closer to the enemy than your catapult.

Human Level 1 Objectives

In the first human scenario of Warcraft: Orcs & Humans, your objectives are to BUILD: 6 FARMS and 1 BARRACKS. The starting gold and a nearby gold mine are sufficient to build the required farms and barracks. You can train two additional peasants to speed up construction. Be aware of 8 orcs scattered around the map, but they will not actively seek you out unless you explore or accidentally attract their attention with your peasants. The safest place to harvest wood is to the Northeast.
