Level 1: Easy health
When controlling a Stone Ogre and your health is low without any Hellfire to eat, scoop up one of those annoying sheep. This is a good strategy for retreats, and the sheep will give more health than Hellfires.
Easy win
When playing a mission with two or three Clans, you can defeat oncoming enemies rapidly by creating only ranged Goblins such as Archers, Hunters, Mortars, Savages, Mages etc. When the enemy is attacking, line your Clans of 10 into a line and wait for the enemy to approach. When in range, your Goblins will fire a volley or two and mow down most of the enemy without sustaining much damage.
