Starting Speech
"For the first time we must face all three Enemy tribes. I must prepare for a mighty struggle."
Setting
You are on your own island which has high elevation but not much space for building on. You have small hills around your island ideal for Guard Towers and close to you is the other island which is much bigger and has the Chumara and the Matak tribes on. The Chumara tribe's village is on a peninsula with a Vault of Knowledge on it. On one side of the island is another island not quite joined and is fairly big. The Dakini's settlement is here along with another Vault of Knowledge and high land.
The other side of the Chumara's base is a wall blocking a path to the Matak's village which is directly behind your own island. The Matak's area is half high land and half low land. At the back is the Vault of Knowledge containing Erode.
Enemy tribes: Dakini, Chumara, Matak
Worship Objects:
| Item | Shots | Spell/Effect | Follower Count |
| Vault of Knowledge | Spy Training Hut | ||
| Vault of Knowledge | Tornado | ||
| Vault of Knowledge | Erode |
Strategy
This level will take longer than the previous levels took. The first thing to do is convert the wildmen on your island and build as many huts as you can. Build the training huts on the highest point of your island and build towers on the small hills provided.
Protect yourself until the Chumara tribe are killed off by the Dakini and the Matak tribes. While that is happening you can worship the Chumara's Vault of Knowledge using your own boat or a boat left by a Chumara spy.
After the Chumara are dead landbridge to what was the Chumara's base and extend your settlement into their base. You should be able to fend off the enemies attacks fairly easily as they don't attack with a huge force. You can take your shaman in a boat and travel to the Vault of Knowledge providing Tornado. Worship it without your shaman being caught and travel back in the boat.
When you're ready gather up an army and destroy the Dakini tribe using a lot of force and spells. Once they have been finished off build a small base on their land for extra mana. Gather up another army to attack the Matak. You can landbridge from the Dakini hill to the Matak hill for a stronger approch.
You can then win by killing the Matak with all your troops. Another way of doing this is to backdoor them from your Reincarnation Site.
