it would be nice if you could adjust your mercinaries setting like when they attack EX. your merinaries will only attack an enemy if you attack them. i don't like when i go into a cave with 3 people and they end up dying because they attack everybody on the way there.

Found a bug on the 3rd shard boss. I was playing a mage and it took me a while to beat him what with him spawning mobs and casting heal. basically the screen got crazy full of gold and items, and when I finally killed the boss, the shard didn't drop. I'm guessing this is because there were no more item drop spawn points?

Wizards are not the best clan. Rune of Stone on Ranger stunlocks bosses since their attack animation lasts longer than it takes to fire the bow. Mana is easy to come by too. I've never had to use Henchmen with a Ranger, defeated everything, and council was e-z cake when I switched to Rune of Power and had 120% more damage. Whoo!

REALLY infuriates me when I start a boss fight that you are trapped in the room and then the oss gets stuck in the wall, making it unfinishable. Please fix this.

Does anyone know how to keep the scroll wheel from panning up/down the page as well as changing spells? Mine does this and I don't know how to fix it, preventing me from using the scroll wheel...

Played as an archer, final boss was actually pretty easy compared to the third boss who kept healing. Here's a tip, freeze or stun the boss when his in his healing animation, worked for me.

Bug: After you get the final shard of the heartstone, if you go back into the cave you can go into the room where the shard was but you can't get out.

there is a glitch in the first cave, if you go to the top right of the first room you will move to another room and get stuck.

Ok, now I've tried to load my saved game twice, and it's completely unplayable. It just keeps scrolling superfast across the whole map, all the boxes at the bottom have ? inside them, all my stats are 999/999, my name is Player Name, and someone else has 999/999 life in the upper right corner. I'm very disappointed, because I was enjoying this, but 1 star out of 5 because it is broken :-(

After you assemble the Heartstone as the Guardians, there is a quest to find Brin Gardius between the two cities. HE is the one that gives the final quest of the game.

"There's a total of 3 of us around tempor" There are 4 of them riddlers, why do they keep telling that? "Us" includes the one who tells it.

Bug report: Played the game once, saved, quit, and then when I came back, it wouldn't let me load the game -- rather, it's in a weird graphical mode where it is cycling through every single map background -- almost like the .swf is "playing" all of the frames used for the backgrounds. Tried to reload a couple of times, with the same result. Looks like several other people in the thread here are having the same problem, but for some reason they're voted down quite a bit. Hopefully the developers can see one of the reports and fix the problem.

For the first cave, you have to find and defeat a giant spider for the first shard. To get to him, go through the entrances in this order. From the first room, go up, then right, up, up and then left.

just putting this here RIDDLES ANSWERS - Family: 9; Triangles: 27; Clock: 0; Operation: 70; EXPLANATIONS Family: there are 6 sisters each one has 1 brother, that means every sister has the same brother, so there is only one. Plus mom and dad it goes 6+1+2= 9. Triangles: there is the big main one (dimension: 4), 16 tiny ones (dimension: 1), 7 little ones (dimension: 2) - 3 on the bottom, 2 in the middle, 1 on the top and 1 upside down in the middle - and 3 medium ones (dimension: 3) - two on the bottom, one in the middle. Clock: An 8-day clock is an old clock, created before electricity was invented. So, you had to wind it by hand to make it work. No winding, no working. Operation: dividing 30 by an half means 30/0,5, which is equal to 30*2=60. 60+10=70

Really good game in the RPG category.... Great improvements from "Hands Of War I"... Specially some points like 1) Great music 2) Good initial story 3) Option to buy allies 4) Dynamic movements of the troops and enemies rather than standing still 5) Good innovative bosses with greater strength 6)Finally a very good thing is to incorporate the idea of markings in the map to reach the destination of the quest ... and and and
7) Good question asked in the riddles, also 8) another noteworthy point is the involvement of a gambler.... it's really good when you want allies and have no money....

PROTIP: The mercenaries are WAY better than the merchants. You can always find good equipment by killing monsters, but there's no replacement for the allies the mercs sell.

A great improvement on its predecessor, despite being largely identical in gameplay and style and re-using the same plot device. I had a strong feeling that the first game could have been made twice as entertaining with only minor adjustments, and this installment proves it. It also progresses much faster and with a minimum of grinding; I reached level 41 by the end, maxed out every skill, and fully allied with three factions with barely any extra effort outside of completing quests. The only thing that bugs me is that, with an IQ of 300, the most powerful artifact on the continent in my hands making me essentially a demigod, and untold learning in arcane and mystical arts, my arch-wizard still cannot discern how on earth to pass over these confounded, knee-high wooden fences. There's hardly any need to murder the entire Black Council; just build fences around their stronghold. They will never figure out how to escape, trust me. It's impossible. Even the Heartstone can't do it.

I remember the original Hands of War, equipment had level requirements, and if you accidentally sell the weapon you have for the weapon you want to use, you just lost the ability to play the game. This game took out the level requirement for the equipment, but they still need a way to buy a weapon from a shop just in case you sell yours, otherwise it is again, unplayable. Apart from that, they made the archer class a bit more fair by boosting the cast and projectile speed of the wizard, allowing them to actually be able to hit you if you want to kill them rather than being able to sidestep all their attacks and get off your own before they attack again.

hey look at those wolves they look pretty deadly, i think ill just wait here until some adventurer who has more important things to do comes and talks to me so i can give him a pointless quest to kill 10 wolves.

It would be really nice if the "epic" drops (like from shard bosses) were actually useful to the character class you are playing.

Iluvscuba, its alot faster if you just get 4 allies... Just gamble alot and win until you can buy them from mercs or mechants vendor. ( Took me like 20 minutes to realize this )

Gah was logged out of kong when I completed the game so no credit for completion or the 4th riddle, even better when I logged in and loaded my game, I'm zooming all round the world at a million miles an hour with 999 in all stats and unable to do anything. The save system in this game needs work!
