C. Dragonbane - Inferno Town (Red)
General Location: Upper middle (NW of Jakta)

D. Moribund - Inferno Town (Red)
General Location: Southwest corner

ADVICE: This scenario isn't too bad, either.  There are two ways you can first strike out.  One approach, as sketched out earlier, is to break out west to capture the Conflux town and then the other Rampart.  Unfortunately with this strategy, you leave the enemy unmolested for awhile.  The other approach (the one I used) is to try going after Red right away.

All the ranged units around Diasamere who join with Gelu will basically make him an unstoppable juggernaut from the get-go.  Don't worry too much about improving everyone into a Sharpshooter; upgrade the Wood Elves normally to Grand Elves and leave the Archers as they are as you will be picking up additional units from
Archers' Towers, but you should feel free to upgrade the Marksmen at the first opportunity (building and upgrading your town takes priority).  Also, pick up the Golden Bow artifact at the first opportunity, I believe it's north of your starting town.

There are 3 Garrisons which serve as bridge crossings over the river.  They are located as follows: 1. South of Diasamere; 2. Just north of Dragonbane; and 3.
On the western edge between Dova Saera and Moribund.  Depending on whether or not you captured Whitespire, you should first cross over through Garrison 1 or
2.

I would suggest first capturing Reavers Gate and then moving west from there onto Jakta, Dragonbane, Moribund, and Dova Saera, in that order.  This will throw Red off balance, and will disrupt his stockpiling process.  You can let
Red capture and keep the Conflux town at the very end while you send Gelu around the board to maximize his skills and experience.

ADVICE: The map is bisected along the west to east diaganol by a mountain range.
You control the lower right half (with 3 Inferno towns) while the enemy Conflux forces control the top left half with 4 towns.  There are 3 valleys which connect the two halves located in the following positons: 1. West of Havoc Peak and south of Shantalla; 2. Northwest of Blackpool and east of Tieldis; and 3.
West of Mourningdale and southeast of Sevenar.

As you can see, there is a plethora of Keymaster's Tents and Border Guards.  You don't need to completely wipe out the Conflux army in order to win, but it sure as heck makes it a lot easier to complete the scenario.  I would start moving in on Conflux territory roughly in the order that the enemy towns are listed.

I left Phaedral as the last standing enemy town while I ran Xeron around to hit all the skill-improving buildings before acquiring the final necessary component to create Armageddon's Blade, in my case, the Sword of Hellfire.  Again, make sure he leaves the scenario at the highest possible level.
