NO loss first island tips!

[Youpiya]

What level of difficulty did you play ?
What class did you pick ?

Because I just succeeded in doing 25 fights without any loss, without healing and call of nature (welcome randomization of scroll), and in NORMAL mode and as a SOOTHSAYER (mage). But now I can't go any further without losing a single unit. And I really don't like that, because I made out Crossworld in Impossible without any loss and it was THE fun part of the game. If I cant do a no loss in impossible, I'm just sad...

I'm gonna stop playing mage and use fighter instead. Just to see.
Please 1C, you just rock with KB, but make the "no loss" path doable. Tough, but doable !!

So, it seems possible in... impossible :

Really bothers me that you play without HP bars and shown move order lol. Great job though.

exactly the same problem here, the lack of donations to the goddess of luck and the drops are really crappy ,
i gave up on Eric, he can keep that 1 bear

on normal it should be a piece of cake imho


The ai is getting prodictable

Personally i think the best combination is

Skald+order+nature call on any difficulty for beating a no loss game

y, I would agree but if u do not find enough magic runes to get order and only one nature scroll, u are fcked pretty much. I gave up with these circumstances after uncountable hours trying the necromancer...

[Youpiya]

razorflame, do you think you can be more condescendant ?
Anyway.

I tried a fighter in impossible. Still no call of nature and no healing scroll.

Precisely, 30 fights are possible before ahriman.
- 27 are doable without any loss.
- The 28th (near the magic door to the shipwreck) is extremely hard (EQUAL SIZE of our troop number) but doable with luck (I tried about 15 times).
- 29th and 30th are absolutely not doable (one DEADLY with 70/70/139 skeleton fighters and 119/119 skeleton archers, other STRONG with 28/28/55 zombies, 93 skeleton archers, 3 ghosts). May be with randomization of troops, with bears it could be possible, but still...

With these 28 fights, still level 4, I had 950 on 952 xp points needed to level 5... So indeed as it is said in another topic, leveling is slower in "impossible"...
Furthermore, I came very quickly to the level 1 award "gifted warrior" which add 5% xp on battle...

I now try skald and stop searching for a no loss game if I do not succeed

One thing important that has not been said : the beserkers shield is really usefull. It double defense of vikings (+10) and beserkers (+14).
