I downloaded the demo from Steam and found the gameplay in the tactical missions reminded me of the originals. However I don't think it will have the long term depth for the reason that Avonu outlined.

I think that only artifacts that are part of a set (Deaths Embrace, Power of Dragons) are carried over from map to map.

When attacking with large numbers of Battleragers their Bash ability quite often triggers which means they don' get retaliated and keep their defense :)

I almost always take it. Great boost to damage when it kicks in and good perks for most factions

I voted Shieldguard/Moutainguard. You can't beat them for toughness. Totally crazy with Ingvar but not too shabby with any other Runemage.

You need to know Armageddon. You need to learn it from your initial towns Mage guild or attack the Mage Vault, Dragon Utopia or Pyramid in the area until you get it.

I have played the fortress quite a bit and I find the initial weeks extremely difficult if I don't get the Rune of Charge. Does anyone have any strategies they use to make up for this? :|

For a Warlock the Necromancers Helm can make a huge difference in the first few weeks to avoid having to return to the castle or waste a day using Dark Ritual to regain mana.

Thanks for the welcome Winterfate. I've reloaded several times and the same thing keeps happening, Duncan is part of the red faction and attacks on sight. I'm wondering if avoiding Duncan until I've captured Tor Hrall will make a difference.
