Travels with CONTRACT OF THE SOUL
Casting nether enchantment spell CONTRACT OF THE SOUL (COS) will make devils fight with your army. The devils only show up during battle. On defense and offensive counters, thousands of devils will come for COS mages. If a COS mage attacks in a non-counter situation, then only a few dozen devils fight. When thousands of devils fight, they will be the top stack, and they should defeat the enemy's entire top stack in most situations. The three stages of development are: preparation for, attacking with, and recovery from CONTRACT OF THE SOUL.
During COS preparation several considerations are paramount: First, if you are short on geld, then you must use Gelding to increase your geld amount. Never cast Contract of the Soul if you have less than 100 million geld. During COS you will lose 30% of your geld and 40% of your population per turn. If you start with approximately 450,000 people, COS should last about 8 turns. CONTRACT OF THE SOUL will end when your population equals zero. Make sure your geld does not reach zero first because you might die due to upkeep costs.
A good way to preserve life is to buy many items on the Black Market before casting COS. By converting geld into items, your geld will not be wasted. For example, if you have 500 million geld before casting COS, you will only have about 29 million geld after 8 turns of COS. Instead of losing all that geld, it is much better to spend all but about 120 million geld on Black Market items. That way you can sell those items later when you are short on cash. Buy many expensive items such as Magical Compass, Treasure Map, and Treasure Chest. Have at least 1 Minor Indulgence because this item dispels all enchantments on you, including enemy destructive enchantments. (It may come in handy if someone is trying to kill you.) Now item Book of Golem Summoning is an excellent purchase because it has a good resale value. The most important item to buy is the Book of Prophecy. Have at VERY MINIMUM five of them. Their purpose will be explained later.
The COS army and kingdom revolve around upkeep. Many nether mages stack: 1. lich 2. zombie 3. skeleton for COS. Disband all geld-consuming troops and get rid of undisbandable population eaters such as mind ripper, vampire, or ghoul if possible. The pre-COS kingdom must have a population of at least 450,000 people. Here is an example of an army and a kingdom setup before casting COS:
Buildings Stack Number Stack Power Mana Geld
land 3198 wild 7 zombie 68119 1532678 1361 0
farm 968 town 346 skeleton 79337 1190055 793 0
work 482 barrack 70 orc raider 49500 891000 495 9901
node 1149 guild 12 lich 210 425670 1051 0
fort 79 barrier 85
Population
Max Space 483K Food Prod 484K
For Units 50K Real Max 433K
Expense
Net Geld 166.8K Net Mana 0.3K
For this kingdom I have the usual four enchantment spells for nether and my only Assignment is item Bottle of Eversmoking 100%. I do not have Assignment spell FOUL WATER because I wish to conserve mana in case I get into trouble. This kingdom shows fewer lich, but you may stack lich higher. Mana charge until you are close to your maximum mana. Now cast COS.
Remember several things when attacking with CONTRACT OF THE SOUL. First, most devils come on counters, so only counterattack while with COS. On the blitz servers the devil counter is only for 12 hours, so you will have to get your counter fast there. Watch your population and geld carefully. If your population is 25,000 or less, DO NOT attack anyone. Under the onld system when population got this low, you would wait until 24 hours have passed since your last attack before using turns. Devils were with you on defense, so it is wise to wait out all enemy counters while they are with you. Now devils only last for 12 hours total time. If geld is dangerously low, sell one item on the Black Market. You don't want to sell too much right now because COS still causes you to lose geld as long as it is on. The best time to sell items is after COS has completely expired. Under this set up you should get about 4 attacks with COS.
The devils attack the enemy's first stack. In this case the ascendant enemy has top stack dominion. Because this is a counterattack, thousands of devils join me, and I kill all the enemy dominion stack. I attack with 10,717 devil, 61,870 zombie, 66,345 skeleton, 40,626 orc raider, and 188 lich. In retrospect, I wish I had stacked lich third because lich defend better than skeleton versus unicorn. Four hundred and ninety-one lich have greater stack power than 66,345 skeleton. Regardless I won the battle because the enemy lost all its dominion.
Defending against and winning offensively against COS are both possible. The easiest way to defeat a COS mage is to damage the mage more than you are damaged. Stack evenly. Have a flying unit, stacked first. If you have ten stacks, including flying unit first and the rest melee and/or ranged, then the flying unit might count for less than 10% of your stack power. With multiple strong complex units, stacked second through fourth, it is possible to damage the devil mage's main army. Item Ash of Invisibility helps because it will cause all your troops to hit before the enemy's devils. One of the most unsual anti-devil attacks is a blue mage stacking with 12,000 sprite, stacked first, and mind ripper, lich, archangel, vampire, and zombie stacked throughout. The sprite stack dies, and the other stacks damage the COS mage's army.
Recovering from COS is the most difficult COS procedure. Do not end COS until 24 hours after your last offensive battle. If you did not cease recruiting before, then you should Recruit 1 militia. This action will end a long recruiting order early. Dispel the black enchantment BLACK SABBATH. Wait until your population recovers before recasting it. Now you should use item Book of Prophecy. Open a Ranking window. Use Books of Prophecy on mages with a lot of land. You should steal between 5,000 to 9,000 people per each use. Use at least 5 Books of Prophecy. Using more than 7 or 8 is a waste. Here is an example of using Book of Prophecy:
You begin using the item Book of Prophecy on Utopia(#XXXX). 5,686 people ran away from Utopia(#XXXX) and join your country in search of a brighter future.
After using about 6 Books of Prophecy, you should have over 50,000 people. Now use Gelding for 100 turns. (If you are still losing geld rapidly, you might have to sell items on the Black Market.) Once population is close to its maximum, you may recast BLACK SABBATH. Mana charge or geld as needed to replenish resources.
The Devil Prince
Arriving when COS is cast, the hero Devil Prince has long-term effects. You cannot dismiss the hero Devil Prince in Audience. It will stay with you at least 3 days of turns. While Devil Prince is in a kingdom, the kingdom gains no geld or population from pillage. Buy many items before casting COS, so you can sell them if geld is low during Devil Prince restrictions. You also cannot recast COS until the Devil Prince is gone.
