Your goal is to conquer the enemy capital as fast as possible without any distraction becasue the victory condition is to conquer the enemy capital.
With the tips in this guide it should be possible to besiege the enemy capital at turn 2 or 3.
One AI player gets disabled, so there is only one enemy on the map. As the player can choose the opponent starting hero, always choose the one with the weakest starting army.

1. Skirmish Settings:
a) select Small Map on Light Side
b) Select the Fate "Clearsight" (unlocked after your first win. This reveales the fog of war, so you know where the enemies capital is located)
c) select starting hero and starting class
d) disable one AI player
e) set the remaining AI player to Thousand Kingdoms -> High Lord -> Realmbuilder vocation as soon as you unlock it (shown in part 2 of the guide)


2. When the match begins
go straight to besiege the enemy capital. It should only cost 2-3 turn on average to reach the enemy capital.
Only take other fights when absolutely necessary. Often times the AI leaves it's capital undefended. When you besiege the capital AI will attack you with their hero, but while besieging you are safe from ambushes.

After the match dont forget to go to the encyclopedia and unlock the Quest

The first goal is to unlock the "Realmbuilder" vocation as fast as possible, so you can choose it as an opponent because he has one of the weakest starting armies.

First you have to win 3x with the Thousand Kingdoms faction to unlock the "Celestial Paladin" Quest.
After that you can take on the "Realmbuilder" quest with your Celestial Paladin.
To win threee times with Thousand Kingdoms pick the High Lord and Knight Captail vocation, since his starting army is so strong it can take almost every fight.



Wheelin' Dealer
For this one just disable both AI players, so there is no enemy to oppose a threat.
You need to find locations where you can recruit beast type units.
Such locations are Kobold Dorfi, Forlorn Pride and Wyldwoods.

Bribemonger
Also close both AI spots, so you arent interrupted by any enemy.
You should win some battles and get some loot wagons. Be careful to not visit any city with the "Storage" Perk, since your loot wagons will be turned into gold and lost.
You want to get a second hero, who is very weak and without any army.
Your plan now should be to get into a fight with the weak hero and loose all gold wagons to a neutral unit and then get them back with your main hero. Repeat a couple of times.

Black Market Master
I recommend to play on a large map, maybe with also light and dark side.
To pillage gold you have to play the "Pillage" card on a location wich you just conquered.
The normal lootwagons you get after a battle don't count as pillaged!!!
The Vogelfrey units of the Bribemonger will help you to pillage more gold


To unlock the named Heroes, you have to play through the campaign and meet specific criteria.
