Level 7: Unseen Enemy
The invisibility spell really shapes this level. In order to win, it is necessary that we create a settlement that can stop invisible enemies in their tracks and produce enough braves for training.

Firstly, move away from the reincarnation site to the main land mass and site a guard tower (as you are so far away from the reincarnation site). Send your Shaman off to start converting clumps of wildmen and begin your building process. Make sure that the training huts are surrounded by normal huts for protection. Train a preacher and house him or your Shaman in the guard tower.

When you have charged up, cast a landbridge over to the stone head in the centre of the world and sending along five people to pray. This will grant you two erode spells but keep an eye out for the Chumara Shaman who might land a lightning bolt on your followers! If needbe, keep your Shaman near the Stone Head for protection. While your huts are upgrading, start training up your army and get vacant warriors and preachers into huts to produce mana.

When the Chumara Shaman casts a landbridge connecting the left hand together, position your army strategically around the settlement. At this point, you are open to attack from visible and invisible enemies so keep your eye on the little warning tabs! Blast away enemy preachers as they do the most damage if not detected early on - act quickly!

Continue the building and also station a guard on the right hand side just in case the Chumara Shaman decides to connect this side and attack. When you have a decent enough size army and all spells charged, launch your attack!

Cast a lightning bolt on the guard tower and blast the warriors into the sea. Send your men in while the Shaman prays at the Vault of Knowledge for the invisibility spell. Keep a close eye on the enemy preachers though!

Get rid of the temple first so the Chumara don't have a chance to train any more preachers! Then, just demolish the rest and finish up.

Estimated time for completion: 25 minutes
