Reap

Level #: 14
Land: Peachtree
Primary goal: Summon Horny and kill Lord Tiberius
Secondary goal: Claim all the mana vaults

Finally, after all this work and all this dramatic buildup, you must use Horny as an active player in the game. Honestly, this level is almost easy, but it's still great fun.

This level includes a lot of conquerable real estate. Use your resources wisely and take over this land little by little. Keep a close eye on your imps in case they get too ambitious. One small band of overeager imps can draw a little too much in the way of unwanted attention to your endeavors. If necessary, build a room and (when you have a workshop) create some solid doors. Lock the little buggers in there if they start getting too antsy. Or just dump 'em into your dungeon heart over and over for a while. It kills time, and it raises your mana level. What more could you want?

Again, you're starting from a southern position. Work your way clockwise around the land. Lord Tiberius is located in the far north. (The mana vaults are in the north as well.) In the northwest and in the northeast, you'll find hero gates. In short, there's plenty to keep you occupied as you work your evil throughout the land.

As you get closer to Lord Tiberius' keep, you must deal with an array of sentry guns. An irritant more than anything else, you must manage your creatures carefully all the same. You wouldn't want them to lose their will to fight before tackling the Lord of the Land, don't you know.


When you've cleared a path to Tiberius' stronghold, summon Horny and watch him work his magic. As the dungeon narrator states, Horny is indeed something to watch. (Then again, I happen to be a fan of gratuitous violence. Go figure.) As pleasingly facile as this level was, consider it a mere aperitif, cleansing the palate for the main course of carnage that lies ahead.

Next: Storm/Crusade
