This game does a quantum leap forward when you find the Phantom spell! Now it is possible to recover from much greater losses than before. This is especially critical when fighting heroes. They tend to cast some damaging spells that I cannot recover from with only the resurrection capabilities of my units. I think the Phantom spell is the single most important thing you need in order to have a no-loss game. In this game I found it in Verona (just a quick stop to start the King's Bride quest). Doing all the battles in Bolo (on my route to Debir) was no problem. I needed the Phantom spell to recover from the losses I got when fighting R14-Gromozeka and Rake Yavik (Barbarian Hall of Fame quest).
