In danger of giving this up

I don't see the problem with that. I beated Zig-Zag with a single stack of Green Dragons. Unless you are doing a speed game, it's perfectly reasonable to scour later islands before doing boss battles in the first few islands.

I just want to share my experience with this game...
I want to say, this game is harder than "the legend"
All enemies are always strong, lethal overpowering
At least devs left the same freedom of lurking, stealing, sneaking
But, princess Amelia is not a royal treasure searcher, thats why she is almost like a beggar.Im having almost no gold to keep my army at full units.

Im level 19.. i use 5trex, a bunch of horsmen(those guys with spears, i forgot the name) demonologists, assasins, royal? griffins..
And i have a hard time improving my army, re suplying it..
I wanted to get dragons etc, but its impossible no gold.
Still i have one unexplored island..
P.S. in armored princess game, all units have much more special abilities, that its hard to think of what units to get.And its hard to find ancient vampires, nekromancers, dragons etc..

I didnt mean the green dragon of the cave, i meant other level 5 units.

what would be better 2 trols or 50 royal snakes?
royal snakes big time ^^

nonsense. If your are a mage then you have access to a wide variety of spells at this point. Keep only the stack of trolls, nothing else and attack a creature guarding the maps. Make sure you fight this stack ONLY AT NIGHT TIME! put them in a corner, cast fear on some of the archers so that they can do no damage to you, cast stone skin and magic spring on the trolls, while periodically casting spells that will poisen or burn the enemy with a huge stack. you will not win with just the power of your spells or brute force but if your facing 100 knights, you can burn and poisen them and at least 10 will die each turn just from that. its unreal how much damage a huge unit takes just from being burned or poisened. Each round, the trolls will heal themselves restoring thier health back to 100% while widdleing away the troops who are attacking you head on. This way, you lose zero units (maybe one if careless at one point) and you get access to other lands after you pick up the map so that you can pick up some of the better units like dragons and archdemons. The reason why im saying this is because i have had terrible luck in one game but i used this exact strategy to beat a 157 knights, 230 griffins, 211 inquisitors, and 600 robbers. i continuously casted fear on the inquisitors, and had only the griffins and robbers attack me. I was level 13, had like 14 or 15 intellect, around 60 mana, and 0 attack and denfense (I HAD THE WORST LUCK WITH ITEMS), and only 3 or 4 trolls. that was the most epic battle ever but that strategy works. Keep in mind that you can also cast fear on any unit in thier army which completely disables them for 4 turns! The game is not always... well, is never about brute force. When you are playing as a mage, its all about strategy.

wow, how many levels you got from that one battle?
p.s. i recommend trex, because they attack, they eat, and they attack again
p.p.s. where are nekromancers, im levl 26 and i havent found any of them..also i havent found ancient vampires too a shame..At such level i have only a few usefull spells and havent found my favourite units and at this level i beated the legend.. yeah

+1. I always pick up trolls if i can, they are awesome units. With a mage, u can cast watever u want on trols (stone sking, divine armour, etc) and make em almost impossible to kill healing themselves on every round and casting fear on enemie troops. Having trolls on early-mid island is a great luck and having trex is a bit overpowered at level 18 xD.
