After ending civil war, Anton go to the south

Prophets haven't been right - chaos forces invasion began earlier than they were expecting. What is worse - peaceful human land was attacked by Nagas - what serpents are looking for ?

Main quest: Sword Diplomacy

Goals: conquering Flammschrein

Reward: 50000 XP, lion's mane coat (+ 6 to Leadership)

Mission isn't as easy, as it looks like. During the game we'll face overwhelming forces of enemy and defeat them on our own territory (most of terrain is flooded). So we have to be careful in planning our moves.

First city=first siege - 3rd mission - Tempt Not a Desperate Man - Campaign - Might & Magic: Heroes VI Game Guide
First city=first siege

Beginning is simple - we should move east and meet with Jezebeth, an angel (M10,2). After short talk, she let us recruting her winged friends in our cities - it's huge advantage. It's good to use it and take over first castle, little north from here (M10,3).

When it's done, we can start exploring. Like usual, we are surrounded by enemies, but we have a safety zone this time: on south and east are neutral forts (M10,4), which we should conquer ASAP (they're weak defenced). They'll become our first frontline.

The faster we take forts, the better it is - 3rd mission - Tempt Not a Desperate Man - Campaign - Might & Magic: Heroes VI Game Guide

When we'll have proper army, we should chose a direction of our expansion. More profitable seems east - there's Haven city there (M10,5), and a Sanctuary nearby (M10,6). Especially it's worth to conquer the second one - it decreases enemy's potential and active a quest Snakes in Haven. But we have to be careful - it's possible that from a whirl on a river (M10,X1) enemy's army go out from his second city (M10,7). If we have enough army, we should ASAP take care about all those cities.

We shouldn't repeat his mistakes

During battles with nagas, we should eliminate theirs priestesses with huge healing power. Then we can get rid of Kenshi (they have unlimited counterstrikes, so shoot them down), shark guard and Kappa. Other formations won't trouble us much.

If plan of conquering nagas cities will be successful, we should just finish off our enemy. To do that go south and conquer his forts (M10,8) and a city (M10,9). In this moment opponent has only one castle, the Flammschrein (M10,10), which is a goal of our mission. Taking it won't be easy - when we get near to its walls, nagas close gates. To go inside, we'll have to finish other quest - Precise Blow.

When we collect proper artifacts we can start a siege - enemy's castle is well fortified and guarded, but for sure it'll fall down in front of our powerful army (sieges are described in chapter Tactics on the battlefields). After defeating serpents, we'll have to meet with their general - to do that, we go through the portal(M10,X5) and have one last battle in the scenario. Finally, the mission ends.

Main quest: Precise Blow

Goals: finding a residence of siege machines builder

Reward: 40000 XP, 150 points of blood reputation, guard bracers (+2 to Leadership)

We obtain that mission, during standing in front of Flammschrein (M10,11). Those powerful walls can't be conquered in traditional way, so we should have to find a siege specialist. We must move to his residence (M10,12) and take his journal with notes.

When we get there, we'll see an inferno's hero, who is trying to steal artifact we need. After short fight (look out enemy's shooters) we get rid of him. Then go back under enemy's castle gates and the quest is done.

Secondary quest: Snakes in Haven

Goals: converting two Santuary's cities

Reward: 20000 XP, 10000 gold, +50 to blood reputation

There are only two enemy castles we can conquer - in the middle of a map (M10,6) and on the very south of it (M10,7). We can reach them only by sea, and the only one shipyard (M10,13) is located within enemy's territory. So we have to get there and buy a ship.

Nagas arent expect a landing - 3rd mission - Tempt Not a Desperate Man - Campaign - Might & Magic: Heroes VI Game Guide

Bit reaching them is quite troublesome

Even if conquering of a first city is easy (it's located opposite to the shipyard), the second one is quite troublesome - to reach it we'll have to go through system of whirlpools (M10,X1 to M10,X2, and then M10,X3 to M10,X4). When we get there, army of nagas will welcome us. Like usual, we should start from eliminating opponent's priestesses and then get rid of his melee troops - very important is also a self-defence. When we win a battle, convert cities and a reward is yours.

Secondary quest: The Tear of Asha

Goals: collecting for parts of moon disc

Reward: 40000 XP, Asha's Tear

Pieces of moon disc are located in western part of a map - we'll have lot of running to collect them. They're marked on map and screens below.

First piece on the southern west... - 3rd mission - Tempt Not a Desperate Man - Campaign - Might & Magic: Heroes VI Game Guide

When we collect all of those elements (they have to be in one's hero inventory) we'll see where is Asha's Tear - now you need to pick it up and take to the city. When we did, we can build unlimited Elrath's mercy - it'll rich us very fast.

Thats where discs are located - 3rd mission - Tempt Not a Desperate Man - Campaign - Might & Magic: Heroes VI Game Guide
