An introduction to the Might and Magic II SPOILER:
(spoilers)

Hello all you M&M2 fans out there that still have problems solving M&M2!
Following is the almost complete walkthrough for this great game. I hope it
will solve all your problems so you can finish the game. However, side
problems that do not belong to the main solution, are mostly omitted, and
as a matter of fact I myself haven't solved them all. After you have used
this spoiler in whole or just parts of it, I would appreciate if you could e-
mail me your comments. My Usenet address is:
brl@kopasker.is
Now go and have fun!

MIGHT & MAGIC II walkthrough

General informations:
You start at the inn of the town Middlegate with 6 prerolled or your own
characters. I myself used the characters that came with the game and put
them in this order:
Sir Felgar (knight) - Terwin III (paladin) - Sure Valla (archer) - The Hermit
(robber) - Gene Eric (cleric) - Cassandra (sorcerer). When I got hirelings I
put them in slots 3 and 4 unless clerics and sorcerers which I put in slots 5
and 6.
M&M2 contains 60 16x16 square mazes, which are divided in 5 towns and
their caverns, 20 outdoor mazes, 4 castle mazes, 6 castle dungeon mazes, 16
caves and the 4 elemental mazes. To help you get around and raise your
character's abilities, be sure to take advantage of the secondary skills.
When you get hirelings, take notice of their skills, so you can change those
of your characters if you want to. Remember to MAP everything and write
down any hint you get during your progress plus the exact location of
these. Also note, that drinks and food recipes can sometimes offer much
help if you use them properly. Remember to check in at an inn to save
your status if you get new vital information or complete a task and so on.
Some hints are more important than others like hints on special battles,
interleaves, keys and a few more.

1. Middlegate - the beginning.
Start exploring Middlegate. Go to the blacksmith and equip your
characters. Be sure to equip the fighters first. Find the locations of the
tavern, Otto Mapper, Track and trail, Edmund's expeditions (the last three
provide some vital secondary skills), Lock and key, the temple, the mage
guild, the training hall and the Arena. Raise your characters up to level
three by fighting and then visit Nordon at 10,2. Accept his quest and go to
the cavern at 8,15. In this cavern are many clues and hints, but to solve
Nordon's quest you need to go to 0,7. Return the goblet to Nordon and get
your reward. Follow his advice and visit his sister Nordonna at 1,2. Accept
her quest as well and resque Sir Hyron and Drog in the cavern at 0,15.
Return to Nordonna to learn about your first hirelings and the secrets of
the well at 15,15. Follow her advices. It is up to you if you want to take
the hirelings before or after donating at each of the five temples (don't
forget the temple at Middlegate) but note that if you rest with the hirelings
you have to pay them. After getting the castle key (which is vital to get
into the castles, give it to your robber) you are ready for next town. Of
course you should finish exploring Middlegate and its cavern first.

2. Sandsobar
Here you should begin finding the usual places - the blacksmith, the inn,
the tavern, the training hall, the temple and the mage guild. Here are also
good secondary skills for your robber. Explore the slums carefully and note
hints about Nature's day (of course you can spare a dime for some poor
beggars, don't you). Don't worry about the graffiti at 11,3. You can explore
the cavern at this point if you like but perhaps you'll need more strength to
finish it. When you have had enough of this town for now its time for
Tundara.

3. Tundara
Start as usual finding the same places as before. A little wall-bunching is
needed to find all the locations. You can try your strength against the
frozen animals if you like but don't go to the region between the inner and
outer wall yet unless you are suicidal. Of course you can try your luck at
the cavern.

4. Vulcania
Here are some good secondary skills for your fighters. As before, this is
mainly a exploratory trip but don't forget the statues at the town square. I
wouldn't go to the cavern without the Levitation spell if I were you.

5. Atlantium
Don't waste your hard earned money - this is an expensive town! Later,
when you have earned so much that you don't know what to do with it you
can take advantage of some fine secondary skills and so on but at this
moment you should look at the statuaries located at the east and west
walls. The cavern is not meant for beginners!

6. Your first trip to the outer world
Now you are ready to start exploring the outer world. I strongly
recommend you start from Middlegate with 2 characters equipped with the
secondary skills Mountaineer and Pathfinder. A crusader and a navigator
could also come handy. When you leave town you will first meet your
guardian pegasus and hopefully will discover his name later (it is not vital
but try to take a linguist to C3). If you have done as I told you and written
down all hints you will be now know what you want to look for this time.
(Later on as your party gets stronger, you will of course explore every
single square in every single maze in the game). You will by now have
heard about Castle Xabran, Lloyd's Beacon, Castle Pinehurst, Queen
Lamanda and many more. So lets start heading north to find Corak's cave
at C2-5,11. You can go there through the woods if you have 2 pathfinders
but try to find the path. Enter the cave and get the spell Lloyd's Beacon.
You should be able to finish off the northern half of the cave this time but
unless you've got admit 8 pass found in the cavern below Sandsobar you
cannot enter the southern part and its not to be bothered with this time
anyway.
Back to the surface, go back to the main road and walk north to Castle
Woodhaven. Enter if you have a crusader and visit Lord Hoardall at 9,11.
Accept one of his quests if you like but note that if you do, you must
complete it to be offered other quests at Castle Woodhaven or Castle
Hillstone. So, I wouldn'd bother with any other but the Lord's quest, which
you have plenty of time to solve.
Now leave the castle and find your way to Tundara. (This first outdoor
tour is very much like the guided tour around the towns; you are learning
your way around). Trail your way back to C1 and try visiting 1,1 to get
another quest, which as most of the quests in this game, can be solved
anytime you like. Go back to Square Lake and take the trail that crosses
the river below the lake. Follow the river soutwards until you find a weird
dude walking on the river. Here you should be able to get the spell Walk
on water by now. Go back to the trail and head east until you see a sign
pointing north to the Luxus Palace Royal (queen Lamanda). Don't go there
yet. Instead backtrail to C2 and take the path that leads south at 14,4.
Follow that path to the woods and turn east. Walk on to D3 and turn at
13,3 to the south. At the end of this road is Castle Hillstone where you find
Lord Slayer at 5,2. If you accepted Lord Hoardall's quest you can do
nothing here by now, else you can accept Lord Slayer's quest. Go back and
turn east at 13,10 (D4), which will take you to Sandsobar. Now go back to
the Square Lake and explore the east side of the lake. You will find castle
ruins and later you should be able to determine which castle this is and
how to get there. Now it is time to find the way to Vulcania (maybe you
will have some nice fights on the way, I will wait meanwhile...)
Ahh, back already? Now we will take the road that leads to castle
Pinehurst on the west side of the lake (come on, you know which lake).
Don't bother with the circus until between days 140 and 170 (see part 11
of this walkthrough). At 14,7 at A2 you will find some wagon tracks; this is
the way to Sarakin's Mine, a good place to get rejuvenated - but only when
you are a lot stronger than now. Go on to Castle Pinehurst and find Lord
Peabody at 4,3. Accept his quest (and this is a vital one for the solution of
the game).

7. Getting stronger
If you think I forgot about the road to Atlantium you're wrong! I expect
you to find your way to the island as you grow stronger. Now it is time for
you to raise your characters. This you do by exploring the rest of the town
caverns, the outside world and the three castles already located.
Remember to take every hint and every location of anything you learn
about. Battle in the Arena, The Monster Bowl and the Colosseum if you like
using the appropriate tickets. As I told in the beginning, take special notice
to hints on keys, queen Lamanda and the triple crown battles. If you
stump upon new hirelings or informations about those, you should free
them and change hirelings as they will almost certainly be stronger (and
more expensive) than Nordonna's sons. Don't miss the location of Mount
Farwiew at D2-7,0. Also, on your way you will find some encoded
messages in three colors; green, yellow and red, and the three clues to
these messages, the green, yellow and red interleaves, are located at three
different places. If you have problems decoding these messages, the
solution is written at the end of this walkthrough.

8. Lord Peabody's quest
Worried about day 93? Well, there are two ways to to get Natures Gate. To
have your own clerics learn it go to C3-1,9. Note the old druid's food and
let your cleric order it at the proper tavern. Go back - and you've got it!
The other way is to free the two captives at Native's Cove at B4. Explore
the area and don't give up until you succeed. These two hirelings will
probably be your best so far (after I got much stronger and freed the
prisoners at Sarakin's Mine, I used them mostly throughout the end of the
game). Go back to Lord Peabody and get your reward, the license to use
the time machine!

9. Queen Lamanda
Now you should be ready for Queen Lamanda. Go to Luxus Palace Royal
defeating Mandagaul on your way and visit the queen at 7,13. By now, you
should know that you have to win the triple green key battle, the triple
yellow, the triple red and the triple black. Start by buying three green
tickets at Middlegate and the green key at Lock and Key Ltd. Win the
three battles at the Arena, the Monster bowl and the Colosseum. Then go
to castle Woodhaven and free the bishop of green battle from his
imprisonment with the green key and collect your reward. Repeat this
process for the other color battles. The bishop of yellow is in Castle
Pinehurst, the bishop of red is in Castle Hillstone and the bishop of black is
in Luxus Palace Royale. Now go back to the queen to find out that she still
demands some more deeds to be done before you can get an audience.
Time for more strenghtening.

10. Castle Xabran
This is a good time for exploring this castle from the last century. You
know now where it is and how to get there, don't you? In this castle, you
should be able to find complete information about the locations of all spells
and all hirelings. Here are also 4 vital objects for completing the game, the
four elemental discs. Also, in each of the other four castles, is a vital
object for your main quest.

11. The circus.
By the way this is not a necessary task. Go to the circus, then to D3-7,13
with a cupie doll. Follow the old man's advices and then return to the
circus to raise the ability you like.

12. The druid's cave and Murray's Resort Island.
To get most out of the island, you should buy at least one guided tour from
the agency at Middlegate. But go first to the Druid's cave to get a lot of
information, much strenght and at least one spell. Don't forget to finish off
Horvath and only then go to Murray's island. Explore the cave (if you have
problems defeating the stone golems, then just skip them for now) to find
the power oil and some information on your quest and then try to visit
Murray. To do this, you must head the signs on the way to his room. He
will offer you a quest, accept it and return after finishing it for your
reward.

13. The plus quest.
Now you should be ready for the long and somewhat tedious quest of the
jurors on Mount Farwiew. If you, for instance, start out with the knight's
quest, you go to Middlegate Inn and get rid of all other characters but
knights and robbers (remember, robbers can help in all quests). Then go to
all inns and collect all hirelings that are knights and robbers. Equip them
and take off to defeat the dread knight. After that you go to the mountain
to confirm your deed and then back to Middlegate to train your characters
some 10 levels! Repeat this process for all the characters you plan to use in
the final quest. If you are not using barbarians and ninjas, you don't have
to finish their tasks.
After you have had all your favorite characters gain their plus, you gather
them together again and visit queen Lamanda. She will accept them as the
stalwart band to rescue her father from the battle with the mega dragon,
which happened last century. Remember, to get her goodwill, all your
characters visiting her must have won the triple battles and finished their
plus quests.

14. Some more training and money-making.
Now you are almost ready for the elemental planes but I assume you are
getting low on money. No problem anymore! Your characters are so strong
by now that they will have an easy riding in the dragon's dominion at D1,
where a lot of money can be collected (I'm talking millions of gold each
time you visit the cave). Just don't bother with the ancient dragon until
you have discovered the secrets of the desert at E2. Underways, don't
forget to visit the nomad's cave at E3 for a lot of information. And the
gemmaker's cave at E1 should also be visited at this time.

15. The elemental planes, the orb and king Kalohn.
Now it is time to get the four elemental talons. To do this you must have
the four discs from castle Xabran. I will not give you the excact locations of
the talons but don't leave the elemental planes until you have found the
red messages as well (3 of those at earth plane and 2 at the others).
After collecting the 4 talons, you go for the elemental orb. It is located in
Dawn's cave (D4 3,8) at 10,15. On the way you must defeat the orb
guardians and to get the orb, you must possess the fluxer, the todilor, the
radicon and the capitor. To escape from the cave with the orb, you must
give it to a hireling and then dismiss that hireling. He will return to the
inn you last checked into and wait for you there.
Now you visit your friend, lord Peabody, and use his time machine to get to
era 8. Go one step north and voops! You are watching king Kalohn the
vanguished preparing for the battle with the mega dragon. The king will
ask you for the talons and the orb. Accept his request and you have
changed history! The dragon is defeated and the king thanks you and asks
you to see him at Luxus Palace Royale. Go there and get information on
your final quest.

16. The final quest.
The Square Lake Cavern is a very difficult one and you should by all means
have finished off the dragon's dominion first to get get a BIG raise on your
hit points (defeat the ancinent dragons, then explore the upper right half
and then the lower right half of the cavern). When you at last after a great
effort have killed the evil threat, you'll have to solve a cryptogram in 15
minutes. This changes each time you get there but the solution is always
the same:

WE, THE PEOPLE OF TERRA, IN ORDER TO FORM A
MORE PERFECT UNION, ESTABLISH JUSTICE,
INSURE DOMESTIC TRANQUILITY,
PROVIDE FOR THE COMMON DEFENSE...

The answer is always PREAMBLE as stated, so encode PREAMBLE according
to the cryptogram and its solution ... and you have saved Cron!!!

Congratulations!!!

When you arrive at Middlegate, don't forget to train your characters a LOT
for the sequel.

P.S. If you find out how to get to squares 7,6 - 9,6 in dragon's dominion,
please email me!

For each individual to become true, see the jury which resides at Mount
Farview. Travel in groups of appropriate class. A Robber can aid all others
with their task.

If personal statistics you'd like to enhance, with circus games you should
take a chance. Win dumb prizes, but don't feel bad, you can offer these toys
to an old man who can be had. His hut in the wilderness is dwarfed by a
tree. For the toy, he gives you a tip for free. Drink from the Inner Limits
pool. Though once it was acid, now it is cool. With thirst now thoroughly
sated, go back to the Cicus and play games to raise those statistics which
you truly hated.

To right ancient wrongs, the solution is very long. The Triple Crown must
first be done, with Arena, Monster Bowl and Colosseum to be won. Next, the
party must split individually so that each may fulfill their personal destiny.
Request an audience with the Queen so the Chosen One can be seen. Travel
through time with Talons and Orb. Save the dead King from destruction and
get the password. Then visit the lake geometrics to find passage to that
which you must hurriedly fix. JVC
