Forum Overview :: Master of Magic :: Thanks. If you ever pick up the game, I forgot the most important tip!

[quote name="Roop"]Always keep some gold on hand to pay for the <b>Wandering Heroes</b> otherwise they won't show up (and the item salesman him too, but the heroes find the items so they take priority). Being a miser is important in the early game, especially (if you're an asshole, 200 gold is probably fine to get by in the very beginning, until your fame goes up or if you always want the crappy heroes). Of course, eventually you can just summon the bastards.[/quote]
