No Gift Challenge

[Vilk]

If you have the resurrection spell you don't need gift for resurrecting. So your challenge would be more no resurrection from spell or inquisitors allowing gift for something else.

EDIT: Well this challenge would be also with no Sacrifice.

Gift-Inquisitor still hits a limit in terms of mana; this combo has better application for resurrecting level 5 units.

Inquisitor's Holy Rage-Lina's Chargers-Resurrect IMHO is the greater exploit since you could be at turn 20, no rage, no mana, massive casualties, and still be able to bring back your army to full strength if you stick to units that Resurrect works on.

well that's true but I feel that sum sort of resurcrion has to be allowed so how do you guys feel on playing the game with out inquistors at all......

I recently played a an impossible mage game (no losses) using only undead,demons,orcs and natural units (inspired by WoW) so no elves or humans what so ever.
It was real fun and I had to come up with new strategies beacuse my previos games where based heavily on agna's ruby and inquistors. On the plus side I didn't have to research tolerance......
As I said, real fun, but mage is too easy for this chalenge because from level 20 and on you can slaugther most of the battles with double armagedeon and ancient vampires (don't even use need time back)
Turn 1: double armagedon
Turn 2: fear on the unit left alive (usually level 1-3) and suck away.
Turn 3: posion cloud on yourself + mana spring to full mana.... so the next will have mana to cast double armageedon.....
Too easy

Warrior w/o Inquistor and no loss seems intresting

This strategy is nice, but since you cannot resurrect Undead and Demons, it's pretty impossible to do without high losses.

[iregev]

Demons can be resurrected Via ressuurection spell.

as for undead...
Vampires and target is preety solid tactics not to get at all
Vampires + sacrifice if somehoe you managed to get hit before you have time back.

Also you can use any natural unit, dragon, beholders, royal snakes, griffins....

[Razorflame]

it's really not that hard...

undead are overpowered

use your mage to dual cast fireball ice snake firerain w/e

kill an enemy stack

use necro call from the your own necro and voila

let your skelli archers kil the rest and use cursed ghost or ancient vamps to kill the left overs




a better challenge would be with a NEUTRAL unit


so no humans(save for barbs robber pirates)
no elves no orcs no demons no undead

u won't get ANY moral bonus so that should be a HARD CHALLENGE

[iregev]

I don't think undead are overpowered when aim for no loss game beacuse they require micromanagmement to not get hit at all.

I agree that everything with Mage is indeead too easy.
In the orginal post I wrote that this challenge is trictly for warriror / paladin

Oh, thanks... for some reason I confused it with Healing, which says in the description that it doesn't affect demons. Thanks! That's good news. I might switch to Xeona and an all-demon army later on from the Undead units.
