Magic Carpet 2/Additional Resources

The only existing "run" at the moment is einokeino's longplay of the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bANf0CXO0S8&list=LLsDoe-U8zYavkrYcQgM48bw&index=1 . He uses cheats in a few maps so it's definitely not a "real" run, and he doesn't know many of the glitches listed here at the KB, but in my own subjective opinion he's a very solid player so it's still worth a watch if you are new to the game. Recommended portions are the disposing of the wyverns on level 20, wizard battles in general and he demonstrates the "castle destroying buildings" glitch in level 16.

Mana tables for castles: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/197836-magic-carpet-2-the-netherworlds/65932697 That level 4 requires 39800 mana has been confirmed. Contrary to what it says however, the mana cost of your first castle is only increased if you raze it yourself. If the monsters destroy it, the mana cost is the same.
