Is there any way for a hero to move over a river tile?

[SandSack]

The hermit who revives your first fallen hero was on my map on an "island" (four land tiles surrounded by rivers) that could only be reached by one of my flying units. My hero respawned at the location of the hermit and now my hero is trapped on that island... so, is there any way for a hero to move over a river tile?

There are Enchantment Spells, Freeze Water, if you have it. Kr

there will be several possibilities ... there is a spell that freezes tiles ... there is a teleport spell ... depends on which profession you chose and how far along you are in the game. You are not stuck forever ;)

Ok, thanks :) Well, I´m not far into the game, seems like it will take some time for my hero to join the other units again. :D

[SandSack]

Yeah, it´s possible for a hero to stay in the tower when it´s flying... so I flew my tower to my stuck hero on the island and rescued him. :)

[Kate'sJoy]

that's an option too later in the game :)

Man, I'm stuck. Went over a shipwreck to get to an island and beat a quest, but now that the shipwreck is gone, I can't travel across the water off the island. That's pretty crappy, and it'll take me a month to move my tower to where my quest hero is. Frustrating.

Cast fly spell on each unit in a stack is an option, but very mana intensive. Another, more permanent option as Artificer is to make an Adamantium L-A - Pathfinder IV glyph later in the game. It allows a stack to traverse any terrain.

In addition to the flight spell, there's also the water walk spell. Wisps can also cross water. The recall spell will move your stack to your tower.

I've since restarted, and I'm doing much better. However, it's still a struggle. And yeah.. trying to do things like make golems so I don't get trashed, and get everyone flying.. it's a hassle. I can't believe people are playing on impossible difficulty. I still haven't killed a single dwarf for my third tower questy thing. and I happen to only find corrupted adamantium.

Yes, the game has a few poor design decisions. I have a couple maps where early received requests require armies to cross bodies of water. I just cannot progress the early story until I can get an army across it. Pretty annoying.
