HELP! The (failed) Assault on General Karador's Necro-Castle

[PHJF]

I corrected my leadership, it was 14000, not 24000.

I've got 21000 now at ~lvl26, having just defeated Baal... so that's 8 black dragons, 13 emerald, 10 fire, 12 archdemons, and ~140 Shamans.

If you're going to play something other than mage, you really really need to have higher stats then you do. I almost always took leadership when leveling up (hence 21000) but from items I have 28 int, 15 attack, 15 defense. I've had 20+ int for a long time.
