Starting Speech
"The Dakini are the mightiest of the three tribes we must face. I fear that if they are not stopped they will unleash a terrible magic upon us."

You share a large island with the Dakini which has a very large force from the start. The Matak and Chumara are on two smaller islands. There is a Fog of War covering the world.
Enemy tribes: Dakini, Chumara, Matak
Worship Objects:
Item | Shots | Spell/Effect | Follower Count |

Stone Head | 1 | Volcano | 6 |
Strategy
You need to work quickly as the Dakini will get and use Armageddon. All three tribes will launch boat attacks against you. Do not go anywhere near the Dakini until you are ready to attack.
Convert a few wildies and build a few huts to gain some mana, then charge landbridge as soon as you can. Meanwhile, build a temple and train 4 or 5 preachers. As quick as you can, take a group of preachers and braves with your Shaman and landbridge across to the island next to your Reincarnation Site. It should be fairly easy to finish off the Matak. Build a Firewarrior Training Hut and a Balloon Hut on the Matak base and expand to charge your spells. It is then relatively easy to attack the Chumara and Dakini from the air with your Shaman and balloons full of firewarriors protected by Magical Shield.
