"We face a great threat. The Matak are massing against us. I need the power of Lightning to defeat them, but Preachers are guarding their Vault of Knowledge."

Setting

This is the fourth level in Populous, where the Matak tribe is faced for the second time in Single Player. The player starts on a large island shared with the Matak tribe. There is an attached circle of land which has a Vault of Knowledge on it and further away, a Stone Head giving the player some uses of the Convert spell.

Through the hills is a Vault of Knowledge guarded by several warriors. Beyond it are two passages to the Matak settlement.

Enemy tribes: Matak

Worship Objects:

Item Shots Spell/Effect Follower Count
Stone Head 4 Convert 1
Vault of Knowledge Guard Tower
Vault of Knowledge Lightning

Strategy

Send the Shaman to the Vault of Knowledge to claim the Guard Tower building plan as well as a brave to worship the nearby Stone Head. Once the Guard Tower is available, build it in the middle of the land north of the Reincarnation Site followed by some huts around it. The enemy Shaman will come with small groups of followers to strike the player's settlement with Lightning.

The Warriors guarding the Vault of Knowledge can be converted with Preachers to make it easier to worship it with the Shaman. Once the spell is available, send an army to destroy the Matak settlement.

Rushing

It is possible to rush by gathering all starting followers to rush the enemy. Try to stop them from building training huts for winning to be easier.
