I’ve played the game a fair bit, so I thought I would share some of 
the tricks I have learned.

Expect to die, you may win the game on the first run, but most likely 
not this game is made to take many attempts to get to the final, don’t
be disappointed if your game ends. The rune points you have achieved 
will carry over from game to game. And if you start a “new” game in a
different save slot, you will have X rune points to distribute.

* Rune points carry over each game. Think of rune points as the “points” 
  Runes as the special abilities. Rune points are pretty much for 
  everything, You will need X gems to buy rune points. It goes up for 
  each one.
* Runes can be used to buy Runic abilities (The circles on the run tree) 
  Those circles can be swapped out. I haven’t had the wealth to check out
  the runs though, they range between 30 and 100 gems for each one.
* Modes – You can change between glory and death mode on the left-hand 
  side. On the right-hand side you can change between glory and loot. 
  I’ll try to get pictures to explain this.
* 3 of anything usually gets you an advanced formation which you cannot 
  change. I’ve only managed to get 1 special formation a game. E.g. Pack 
  of thieves, Banner Lords Etc.

Don’t use the auto fight for levelling, I Cannot stress this enough. You 
get growth items every now and then (Example the Tome +10 to Exp Gain +1 
intelligence a fight. Use the tavern to control the levelling of your 
characters. Get them close to levelling in the auto fight then equip the 
growth items on the character you want to level and use the tavern to get 
the stats you want. After you unlock the advanced classes (Paladin, Reaver, 
War priest Etc.) you can use the tavern to get a veteran dwarf to the 
class in as little as 10 levels added.

Veteran’s As you cycle through the shop you will come across dwarves,
Usually they are your stock dwarves to replace or add to your army. If 
you see one with a hammer, It is a veteran who has better stats and 
usually an ability.

* If you look at the guide there are several hints there that I cannot 
  recall at the moment.
* There is no listing of Dwarven abilities yet. I assume Wise trait means 
  extra wisdom when levelling….
* You can Disassemble extra weapons into parts to improve your weapons. 
  4 white makes 1 green, 4 green makes 1 blue. 4 blue makes 1 purple, 4 
  purple makes 1 orange – Haven’t gotten too Mythical yet, So I am not 
  sure if 4 orange makes 1 red.
* You can only get components at the end of the fight, so save all green+ 
  items to disassemble. Later on, you will only fight to make money so 
  you can buy items to disassemble so you can make better items for your
  characters.
* The earliest I have had a mythical item show up is Shop level 13. It 
  was a mythical Wizard staff which i tossed in storage.
* Loot codes, White – Normal, Green – Uncommon, Blue – Rare, Purple – Epic, 
  Orange – Legendary, Red – Mythical. This is labelled on the shop menu.
* A blue shop symbol means you need to buy the flee flag. If it’s blue you 
  cannot flee from combat.
* Fleeing combat will let you fight another day. If you have the money of 
  course.
* Try to finish raid 1, which takes a lot of damage to overcome the troll’s 
  natural regeneration. I usually have 3 thieves and or 3 mages and 2 healers 
  and 2 tanks to try it.
* First raid gives 25k Gold and 100 Gems, Try to kill it Every Game, Even 
  if you are planning on retiring your game (ending it) the gem reward 
  itself will speed things up.
* You can Lock things in the store window with a right click, and in the 
  options menu you can turn off the growth item warning for re-rolling.
