Midgaurd scenario, please help

[Superstar]

Ok, I've recently bought ToT, and I'm a very good civ player, (usually Deity level), but I'm finding this scenario impossible.
Any tips on who's the best race to play, stratergies etc.

It's just too damn diffucult even for me

Say it again, brother.

The merfolk and the Buteo are the easiest as they are alone on the map on which they start.

If you want to complete the game through quests then I recommend the humans because they have the best starting location in Midgard. However, if your're going by Siege Engine then I would say the Buteo or Merfolk, as you are pretty safe on both maps.

The thing I find most diffucult are the quests. Which of these are the most important, and how are they best accomplished?

Thanks for your help so far by the way
