i need help on the mission where you have to stop the SEAS fleet. heres what i do, i get talsow and the druid, the rest of my points go to workers. at the begining i send my heroes up to the telscope, talsow fixes it while the others defend him. while that is going on i get my workers going. (i have 6) they collect wood and stone. then i make a fishing boat down at the harbor to trigger my allies right after the cutscene. i reach epoch 2. then the cutscene starts and i focus ALL my attetion on my "fleet" i max out my unit limit to 52.
by now at least one ship makes it past and three are all on their way. i just cant get my ships out fast enough.

id REALLY appreciate ANY help you guys can give me

This is a tricky level where time is of the essece, so... if you want an easy time dealing with the SEAS you must prolong the time...somehow. There is only one way. When you head towards the telescope tower be sure you kill off the enemy as quickly as possible so they can't do to much damage to the tower. When you're done with them assign taslow to finish building the tower BUT BE CAREFULL and DO NOT ALLOW HIM TO FINISH THE TOWER. If you do , you will trigger the cutscene and the SEAS armada will start moving towards the holy city and your doom. Instead stop him before he finishes the building and assign him to build a temple near the tower(if you are on level 2). When he is done make a few more soldiers and level up your heroes, make your army a bit stronger, not too much because you need slots for your armada of ships too. The SEAS will send around 3 or 4 waves of units with 1-2 minutes brake. Use the time to level up at least to level 3 and build ships and position them in key points. You have around 7 to 8 minutes before a huge SEAS army will appear near the tower, at this time you have to assign Taslow to finish the tower before the SEAS can destroy it and the fun will just begin. After the cutscene take your army back to your base and build a temple if you don't have one there yet and make your stand and try to kill off the seas with the help of the dustriders who will appear shortly. Don't mind if your army will be obliturated since you will need the slots for the ships, of course take care of the heroes and rebuild a small terrestrial army too; you will still need them later. The 7-8 min timeframe is a huge help and even on hard you should not miss even one ship.
