Discrepancies to point out

But DGD we are NOT I repeat NOT discussing toughness of the trap medal. We are discussing the medal requirement for trap medal doesn't make an iota of sense with the purpose of trap spell.

I'd agree with the sentiments that traps should be for units killed, or number of groups stopped, or something sensible.

But something is just not right with the whole process. My games consist of walling of a unit and berzerking him 10x in a row each battle. I then move on to stone skin 10x in a row. I use inquisitors and phantom to summon endless rage to level my dragon. And I dig three chests every battle. And I wall off, sleep, whatever the enemy each battle until I get that done. I've used 3000 rage now in 9 battles. I wouldn't call that fun... but the game heavily rewards such play.

I head into each battle not with the intention to decimate the enemy as best I can, but rather to tick off as many medal check boxes as I can, and to lvl my dragon as much as possible.

In an ideal game I shouldn't have to choose between fun or making the most out of my character. That's what mmorpgs are for.

You have absolutely nailed the point!
In most fight by the end of 3rd turn i have completely destroyed the most enemy stacks save for one melee unit. Then I cast slow on the unit and use my dragon' push ability to keep knocking that unit back to starting point while i cast as much as stone-skin spell, fire spell, shield spell and inquisitor's holy rage ability and what not for 3-4 mind bogglingly boring turns to level up my medals.

Let me tell you when i was playing KBTL a year ago i was giving that game 5+ hrs sitting in one session. Here in KBAP i get bored after a single hour of uselessly leveling up medal and decide to play after some time.

Well, as the saying goes, to each one his own I, for one, love to level up the medals. Gives me something else to do, and to strive for.

[Infiltrator]

Don't know if it's intended or not, but can you not sacrifice units that you charm with the demoness on others than the demoness? I can't fill up anyone else apart from her and I tried it twice. Am I doing something wrong or what?

[DGDobrev]

Hmm, maybe demoness' charm works in a different way than Hypnosis, because the unit goes under HER control. Since you couldn't resurrect anyone else than the demoness, that would be the only assumption.

[Infiltrator]

Yes that was my initial assumption as well, but that is not how the spell used to work.

[DGDobrev]

Well, with the difference that this is not a spell but an ability. Even the description says that the unit will fight for HER for 2 turns. This is why it looks plausible. The only thing that I can add is that if that was a bug, the russian players would have already said something about that and it would have been fixed.

[Infiltrator]

Perhaps. I did say how I abused the charm+sacrifice combo in KBTL so I won't complain. I won't even put points into destruction now that I know that I can't utilize it to the fullest.
