Would switch wife, but kids too darn good

[Gatts]

You can bet that most of us did face such dilemma I did anyway!

Even as I agree your kids are fine - would be even better with one MOD that improves kids even more (I think its called "next generation")

I personally decided never breed - so I can only use the item slots -> what would give me the freedom of choice in different battles.

I also have tried each wife more times (only Mirabella once as I got the path/mod for her later on and I knew I don't want her) so I always decided what wife I want and held her till the end.

Hint: If you like rings/ regalia / belts -> go for Neoka - she is the best: also you will benefit from the elven special tactics that many players advise in this forum.

I would hold on Dwarves / dwarven girl in your place, still I mostly decide to go for zombie girl

Hint 2: would you decide to stay with the dwarven girl and have the 2 artefacts (ale + scope : bonus to archers) - get both beholders - as thei are archers, also they have great abilities, and leave the other 3 slots populated with dwarves (probably alchemists, canoneers, giants... later on you may kick our any of these five units and get green dragons... I would kick out either alchemists or lower beholders... probably lower beholders ) and this army will be sufficient till the bitter end of this game.

Yeah, but with only one artifact slot, i can't weild both the ale and the scope, or is my memory serving me wrong?

I believe that artefact can be used instead ring/belt or regalia as well...

Yeah, that's only for mages. I can only equip one artifact

I don't know if it's a bug in my game but I have the scope equipped and my beholder stacks don't benefit from it. All the other "Archer" types get it fine.

No, you are right, I was wrong (as beholders have "archer" in the description, I assumed they should benefit from the scope and scope+ale critical effect) but now I reviewed the translated fan manual and there are only these units that can benefit from these:

Skeleton Archer, Bowman, Canoneer, Goblin Catapult, Elf, Hunter, Goblin.
