Yep that's very impressive. I noticed something strange this time around - occasionally, NO time would pass when I travelled, as in it wouldn't go to 7am the next day. Anyone else seen this? :confused:

I can see from what you provided that it is possible in 11 days. What I'm still scratching my head about is how you managed to defeat things so easily in this timeframe. I found in my Warrior game that I was struggling a lot for the first half of the game, and to compensate I was travelling around to get a better team.

No matter though - I am going to delete the shortcut to King's Bounty now in the hope that it will stop me from playing the game through for a fifth time. :eek:

I am seriously impressed as well. I was definitely not that careful with my time. As for the criticals, I'll never be able to beat them with my game, it looks like you had the thorn crown + the whip which would produce insane damage output. I didn't have that option because of the self imposed no losses restriction. I'll be surprised if anyone beats yours though. :)

Actually i had that poison dagger +1 too :D. But you can top that with sprites. I only had the +20% fire damage spell (no crystals too upgrade). Sprites would be 7-7(8-8 with dagger) then with bless from inquisitors. Thats what i had on the Thorns aswell. Then just use doom on an extremly low defense lev 1 stack and get a guaranteed crit :D.

@Calinda and yes i wasted some time in the beginning. Half way through i decided to try the 13 days tho.

@Zhuangzi one of the tricks was to not kill stuff in Freedom Isles the first time around but come back second time and with 8k Leadership its a cake. (target + Giants). Karador was tougher but Lev 3 Target gets you through alot of fights. And once you got Inquisitors + Gift + High charges you can spend half an hour resurrecting troops if necessary each fight.

I wonder if it is possible to do the freedom islands and do not return there later, just in 1 day ... You will lose at least 2 quests (anga's ruby and the embassy recapture) but this probably will lower the fastest time to 9 days. In my game I have like 6 hours left and I still Need to kill Duke Sov, Kraken, the orcs in The Boot and either the Wild Duke or Manno. I'll try but don't have much time to play right now ...

Edit: It may be possible but I did some calculations with the score formula:
(100 + 91*4) * 3.62 = 1679,68 (9 days, 101 quests)
(100 + 90*4) * 3.66 = 1683,6 (10 days, 103 quests)
This proves that finishing the last 2 quests and losing 1 day for it, is worth it in terms of score. And probably this is the highest score you can get in the game with the current rules, and without cheating ;)

So I decided to try to go for this:
(100 + 90*4) * 3.66 = 1683,6 (10 days, 103 quests)

Game is going well so far. I'm lvl 14 at 10AM on day 4, just entered Creiston mines. The plan is to do what I can in the dwarven lands, liberate Bogacho and sign the treaty (!), may be steal what I can in Demonis, then return to the Islands at 6:59 AM on day 5 to finish what I left unfinished there. And that is not much :) Left one of the pirate's sons, bartolomeo, puppeteer and ruin guy, as well as several of those pirate ships.

1600 is not that high a score - I'm glad that time isn't everything in the score calculations. I think my highest score is close to 1400 and that was 30 days.

1600 not high ... The one I posted is the highest one can get dude.

Don't really care about score personally but are you guys speeding up travel by dying (fleeing from combat) rather than travel back to darion?

I didnt that wouldnt be right as a hero :D

@Zhuangzi i think everyone that beats impossible has beaten the game and done a very good job. After that its just details and how much you are willing to go to the extreme. And just because there are people out there that perform better doesnt mean your win becomes worthless. :D

Sorry, I worded that wrong. I mean you don't get a much higher score for completing the game in 15 days compared to 30. I realise that it is as high as you can get. :cool:
