A mapmaker can set what the hero will learn. A hero may learn a [[Secondary Skill]] that is normally not allowed for that hero type.

'''Gremlins''' and '''Master Gremlins''' are level 1 creatures of [[Tower town]]. They are recruited from [[Workshop]].


A Scholar will always teach you something. If the hero does not have a [[Spell book]] he is not offered a spell even if this is set by the mapmaker. If the hero has a [[Secondary Skill]] the Scholar is set to offer, it is offered at the next higher level. This is unlike a [[Witch Hut]] or [[University]] where only new skills may be learnt.
''"Gremlins are indentured to menial labor around a Tower. While they are not great warriors by any standard, they are numerous and willing. Gremlins attack with their attached balls and chains. Master gremlins - those who have proven their loyalty - are cut from their balls and chains and able to hurl them in a ranged attack."{{-}}<sup>[[Restoration of Erathia Manual Page 113|RoE manual]]''</sup>


The scholar disappears from the map immediately after use.
== Overall Tactics ==
Master Gremlins are the cornerstone of the Tower faction, being the unit which is used to clear the map in the early game and the only level 1 shooter. Basically, since [[Stone Gargoyle and Obsidian Gargoyle|gargoyles]] have relatively low stats and [[Stone Golem and Iron Golem|golems]] are too slow, the master gremlins are the best candidate for dealing the most of the damage in early battles. They should be surrounded and protected by golems and gargoyles, letting the gremlins do full damage with their ranged attack. However, be aware that they have only 8 shots, but that's enough for early game. Later in the game, they are gonna be replaced by [[Mage and Arch Mage|magi]], with superior stats.


One cannot turn the offered teaching down. This is only a problem if the Scholar teaches some unwanted skill though, in which case a reload might be in order, since unlike [[Witch Hut]]s, sending a scout first will prevent your main hero from gaining from the Scholar.

Gremlins and Master Gremlins are level 1 creatures of Tower town. They are recruited from Workshop.

"Gremlins are indentured to menial labor around a Tower. While they are not great warriors by any standard, they are numerous and willing. Gremlins attack with their attached balls and chains. Master gremlins - those who have proven their loyalty - are cut from their balls and chains and able to hurl them in a ranged attack." RoE manual

Overall Tactics

Master Gremlins are the cornerstone of the Tower faction, being the unit which is used to clear the map in the early game and the only level 1 shooter. Basically, since gargoyles have relatively low stats and golems are too slow, the master gremlins are the best candidate for dealing the most of the damage in early battles. They should be surrounded and protected by golems and gargoyles, letting the gremlins do full damage with their ranged attack. However, be aware that they have only 8 shots, but that's enough for early game. Later in the game, they are gonna be replaced by magi, with superior stats.
