well u could cheese your way in
there is an item i think it's a griffin feather(which boost your level 1 units initative)
and griffin speed
there is also another item (think it's a banner) which gives +1 to intiative to all level 1-3 units
then either use only level 1 units and BE SURE to be first annd rape the shit out of him before he can do to u
