This is the seventh level in Populous The Beginning where you first gain the Invisibility spell. This level is also very similar to the Multiplayer level Eye of the Storm.

Starting Speech

"The Chumara will use the spell of Invisibility to attack us. Once again, I sense a Stone Head that contains a prize: the spell of Erode! Then, I will seize the power of Invisibility from their Vault of Knowledge."

Setting

You start on a large long island with an outlet of land which leads to your Reincarnation Site. Pallerel to you is a similar island that belongs to the Chumara tribe. There are two easy paths that can connect the islands using one Landbridge, they are either side of the islands. In the centre there is a small island with a Stone Head on it.

Enemy tribes: Chumara

Worship Objects:

Item Shots Spell/Effect Follower Count
Stone Head 2 Erode 5
Vault of Knowledge Invisibility

Strategy

Start by sending your braves to the middle of the island and star building a Guard Tower. On your way convert groups of wildmen and command them to build some huts. Expand your settlement and train several preachers. Send them over to the far right of the island so that they will preach hidden troops.

When the Chumara Shaman connects to your island follow the footprints to track the hidden enemy preachers that are heading to your base. Once you have found them kill them. Contine the level as normal, when your ready to kill them train up to 10 preachers and 10 warriors. Kill their shaman first with lightning and then send your army to destory their village. The level should be fairly straight forward, later in the game they will cast landbridge on the far left of the island too, so watch out.

Quick Way

The level can be completed in at least six minutes. First send your braves to build a Guard Tower in reach of the other island that is closest to your Reincarnation Site. Build a temple while your shaman converts wildmen, make sure you charge landbridge. Once you have built your temple train several preachers and build a couple of huts. When you have landbridge cast it on the Chumara island and send your preachers to their base. They should not have any of their own preachers yet. Use your shaman to blast the enemy braves or the shaman around too.
