How to actually get started on adventure mode?

[evillee]

Is it like you have to start near somewhere? Everytime I start Im too underleveled to kill anyone except bandits.

Basically, adventure mode is an enormous headache in which should you survive the game and beat it, then god hath blessed you.

I just started, and playing keeper... But if there's only one thing you can kill, figure out how to kill a lot of that one thing.

Zombies are even easier than bandits, but beware in one of the Coffins there is an Vampire Lord...

My game-plan may look something like this.

Level 5 - Kit up on all the friendly tribes
Level 5 - Level 6 - Take out all bandits - get a bow and arrow
Level 6 - Level 8 - Shoot all ogres and orcs. Take out zombies.
Level 8 - Level 9 - Shoot all lizard men
Level 9 - Level 10 - Shoot Cyclops
Level 10 - Level 12 - Wipe out mini tribes of dwarves
Level 12 - Level 14 - Take out minor villains
Level 14 - Level 15 - Major villain 1
Level 15 - Level 16 - Major villain 2
Level 16 - Level 17 - Major villain 3
Level 18 - Level 20 - Take out keeper dungeon.
