Hey there! So you're diving into Songs of Conquest and want to get the most out of your Arleon Wielders? Awesome! This guide is going to walk you through some solid build ideas to help you crush it, especially in the PvE campaigns. Keep in mind, competitive play is a whole different beast, but these tips will give you a fantastic foundation.

Gameplay Basics & General Tips

First off, always, always explore. Seriously, poke around everywhere! You'll find resources that boost your economy, capture buildings for even more goodies, and generally give you more intel on the map. If you're not grabbing everything, your opponent will be. To make this even more efficient, try to increase your Wielder's movement stat and get a secondary Wielder to handle the looting. This way, your main Wielder can focus on more fights each turn while your secondary grabs all the shiny bits. A pro-tip: use the ALT key constantly! It'll highlight everything you can interact with, and sometimes even reveal items hidden behind environmental objects. It's a game-changer.

Making a Strategy

Before you jump in, have a plan. What units are you aiming for? What research do you want to prioritize? Focusing on a few specific units means cheaper research and faster reinforcements for those units, but it also means you'll be less flexible and won't have as many spell options. Don't be afraid to experiment during the first few maps of most campaigns – they're usually a bit easier. This is your chance to figure out what tactics and units you vibe with, so you can make a solid plan for the tougher, later maps.

Making Use of Your Build Slots

Knowing how to use your town and settlement building slots is key to managing your resources and army. Here's the breakdown:

• Towns get: 7 small building slots, 3 medium building slots, and 2 large building slots.
• Large Settlements get: 3 small building slots, 2 medium building slots, and 1 large building slot.
• Small Settlements get: 2 small building slots and 1 medium building slot.

If you find yourself with free building slots, consider your current situation:

• If you're short on rare resources, consider building multiple Markets (up to 5!). They significantly improve trade prices, which is crucial for unlocking your highest-tier units, making upgrades cheaper, and speeding up your overall progress.
• If you're constantly running out of units, focus on reinforcing one unit type and use Rally Points to bolster your armies.
• If an enemy is heading your way, a Tower is a great defensive option. They only take one turn to build and can be incredibly effective at taking down dangerous units like Cheluns or Necromancers. Even if you can't wipe out their entire army, softening them up can make a huge difference in a future battle.

Artifacts

You'll stumble upon a bunch of Artifacts during your campaigns. Some are amazing, some are... less so. But even if you find a
