LOL, when I played this in the demo, I found kinda hard...I had to keep on pumping out units, and try not to engage the enemy unless there was a weak point.
Keep the frontline city (the human city for Elves, the Dark Elf city for Dark Elves, the Elves must either conquer or buy the human city as soon as possible. conquer is a good choice, providing you want to buy the hero) protected, while expand to the back. The enemy will not attack you even if he outnumbers you 4:3. (the defender has the advantage in battle, especially if your frontline stock are archers. The Dark Elves should then slowly send scouts and expand into the northwest, get new cities, spells, etc. Ditto for Elves except they expand into the northeast. And keep on supplying the frontline with new and advanced troops (ie. Iron Maidens by turn 30) and eventually taking Yaka, and then facing each other. If teleporters are enabled - then prepare to defend your main city as a frontline too....theres a teleporter to the back of each city.
