And dont forget dark elf warlocks....Best normal unit in the game.....
Two of them behind some melee protectors + 1-2 dark elf priests, and you can clear off many dungeons where you won't meet exactly 5 great wyrms (met them once, needed 2 good heroes to clean it off ) or 3 great drakes.
Yup.With 8 warlocks and one hero,I was able to shoot down 3 Behemots and Colosus.But again enemy with magic imunity are warlocks (And whole dark elven race) useless

wow you were right about the paladins ... they are very strong , i don't have a unit that can match their strength , one paladin destroyed 4 turtle dragons yikes

kind of weird , paladins don't seem that strong but in combat it seems they are very very strong

haven't had a chance to fight a warlock though , guess i will have to try them myself and pick the other world to start a game ....

are there people here who would want to play a multi-player game ? and how many can join a multi-player game ? can you also play with 2 real players and 3 AI's ?

The biggest effect from walls is when you're up against ranged attackers (archers and such, or any unit with a ranged magical attack): walls will protect the units inside, though there's quite a random factor included.
Also, if you're defending and one of your units is significantly stronger than the others, place that behind the gap in the wall, forcing all non-flying units to fight your strongest unit first.
Besides, enemy units running around in your town during combat, will increase the chances of buildings being destroyed. Walls help to keep them out.
But honestly, I never bother building any walls

Look here:
http://www.the-underdogs.org/game.php?id=687
Under the "extras" you can download the Multiplayer Shell. Though I didn't use it at all, and can't help with it in any way, sorry.

As I already said I would LOVE to play mom in multiplayer.But I cant help you with mom shell:I read the readme file and i think it is very unclear and foggy(at least for me).Try to start new topic in multiplayer:challenges or general talk

I still remember it but haven't played it for some years, the best race is definitely dwarven, and the unit you'll get most out of are hammerhands they can beat anything easily and can be produced quickly.
Just choose myran, warlord, famous and charismatic (i think, the one where mercanaries cost half price), 4 or 5 books sorcery, and dwarwen.
Dwarven mine double of whatever resources you have, and you will have the first city almoust always by some resource if you are dwarven so you will have loads of money to buy mercenaries and game over, you win. Always keep one hero slot open so better can come, but you must not refuse heroes or they will be offered again, hire them and send them to die while they are still weak.
Have one army, couple of hammerhands and heroes who gain experiance, with warlord heroes get strong really quick.
I have played loads of games to try to have all six heroes extra rare, but i still think i have seen all but one, which never came.
I have actualy once found a file where all heroes where listed so thats how i know.
But palladins I have never found to be anything special, probably cause rarely played with human, warlocks are very good because of doombolt :w00t:

To begin with, you'll need DOS drivers for that soundcard. And, of course, identification of what exact soundcard is that. There's a program called "EVEREST" (google for "Everest Home") that's pretty good at identifying older components.

Reboot into DOS mode and run from there.

The memory issue most likely refers to Expanded/Extended memory (DOS-specific ways of handling larger amounts of RAM - for a given value of "larger").
TSR = Terminate and Stay Resident = a very limited form of multi-tasking used in DOS.
