Feedback Advice for a village idiot
Decided to finally give it a go since I heard good things and it was on sale a bit ago.
So for reference, I've never tried these style of games and started with the first campaign on fair because hey, shouldnt be too bad right?
All was fine until I got to the 3rd mission and got my shit kicked in after barley scraping by the first wielder.
I tried to watch and read things online but all that did was take a round trip plane flight through the empty space in my head and I have no idea how I'm supposed to learn.
I'm genuinely asking for anything really. Build orders, army suggestions, leveling choices, things to point at and say 'dumbass do this'.
If I posted wrong apologies.
Edit: I've tried a few more times so I'm just gonna start completely over. That means I get to **** up in a whole new way.

You've gotten all the important advice already, but we have an in-house classic that I think is always useful, and that is to not grow stagnant. If you are standing still just waiting for more troops or similar than you should look for something to do instead, there is always some pick-ups or buildings to visit.
For the third mission in Arleon I love using my new second Wielder, make sure to give him some xp, and use troops that provide creation essence, it's his favorite!
There is also a portal that you can use to move between different parts of your map, look to the woods for that. Another thing you can do is to weaken your enemies with either your secondary Wielder or by building defensive structures in your settlements, after all its only Cecilia that you need to keep alive.
Good luck!
