Fallen Enchantress - Getting Started (Video Tutorial Series)

from Elemental Forums

Hi folks,

Well, with the launch of FE I've been itching to make another series. I'll probably make a couple of series over the coming weeks - one designed to help new players and then just a standard 'Let's Play' style series. But this first series will go slowly through the various game mechanics.

The Playlist will be here...

Fallen Enchantress - Getting Started

First video is just on the Game Options...

Hope you enjoy - and please point out things that you would have done differently.

Love your LP's Das123. I recommend all rookie players to have a look and learn.

Good work as usual!

However, I noticed one error. Snaking to rivers and forests no longer works. If you want to build a Logging Camp or Pier, you have to settle your city right next to a river or forest.

Modding while watching your video is the same thing as playing right?

I've picked up quite a few little interesting nuggets from your videos, and just wanted to thank you for your efforts, and anxiously await more.

I completely agree.  These videos are more than excellent.  You have a calming voice, that lends itself perfectly to teaching.  Even though I played the beta a bit here and there, I still learned a lot from you.

Also, I started following your Let's Play.  Thank you for starting it up!  I can't wait to see where it leads.

This episode just looks at the levelling up of Champions.

Episode 9 looks at designing units.

It covers the important considerations of matching your resources to your design and checking the statistics to ensure the unit will be effective.

This is the last in the Getting Started series and looks at Tactical Battles.

I hope these help newer or struggling players come to grips with some of the game mechanics and make the game more enjoyable. :)
