(troop strenght in Leadership)

sometimes the fights are indeed impossible cause of the high leadership

but sometimes they have low leadership and u can steamroll them

and as soothsayer make sure u get nature scroll ( i think winter's circle is fixed and so is healing IIRC)

tiberiu is right. Losing some slingers isn't a big deal. Losing a core level 5 unit that is hard to find is another story.

Also, I'd personally restart until you can get Call of Nature. It helps minimize losses a bit.

i restarted multiple times for my mage, when i got nature call i missed heal and vice verse, it depends on luck A LOT, my warrior first roll i had like +4 int in the shops (belt, staff, artifact) man why couldn't have that on my spell-caster. sometimes i think this game just teasing me, i need to open the pc and get rid off these unfriendly gremlins inside.

You want first Island really easy you can just start game open first 2 chests nothing good then reboot start over real fast. Save before you get to bridge check inside first part of training area nothing good reboot. Reload tell guy on bridge you wanna skip tutorial check the island first. Nothing good? start new game. I did this a few times looking for heal and I got a shield that gave me 300 leadership and flag that gave me 200 plus another item that gave me 50. let me tell you at level 1 with 1000 leadership no loss is very easy. Then you can sit back enjoy game after first island.

Managed to do them with a bit of luck but still didnt found any decent spells or items. I guess i will fast clear all the way to leaving the island , if i still dont get anything good , i will most likely restart.
Tnx for the tips tho. Cheers

no problem

if u need any more advice just ask me
and u can always leave a save file here and let someone else do it

Someone else doing it would be a nifty challenge for someone!

Also, there is usually a healing scroll on the right side of the map but you have to dig it up.

Maybe I just got super lucky but in my 2nd playthrough with a Mage, I still got it.

My 1st playthrough as a Viking/Warrior, I got about 4 Calls of Nature, and a lot of healing scrolls but... no way I could learn Order magic so it was a big trickier.
