Out of curiosity, has any of you managed to down Moro in fewer turns with no losses, using another strategy?

Hi ivra, I did get to read on your armageddon-time back tactic before, and was thinking of doing a variant of it if ever I do a mage playthrough.
I think that you may have something here, and maybe you just need to lessen the casting of armageddon so that you don't kill them TOO QUICKLY; to give you time to dig up treasure and generate mana.
Perhaps this tactic could be done with red dragons instead of archdemons? I have read somewhere of someone finishing the game with just a single stack of reds, and someone is even attempting to finish the game with just a single red dragon.

That way, you don't need to change lineups against bosses, although I doubt doing a chain of armageddons would take out the high hit point bosses on impossible difficulty.
It took me 13 rounds to take out Moro Dark at no-loss using the undead-droid lineup (see attached screenshot). I did dig up all 3 chests though, and it was far from being a serious battle (1 attempt). It is also a sustainable tactic, you could easily end battles with max rage and mana, very handy if you are chain-fighting 5 consecutive hero/boss battles using Ancient Knowledge.
