Ironically, their transformation is also a substantial boon, because it enables them to shake off all sorts of pesky effects like burning or shock from the lightning spell.
Also, eviln is almost a non-option as in some battles (e.g. against archdemons, those damn ridiculously overpowered orcs!) the level 3 vampires barely survive into the second round, if at all. Plus with the huge armies on impossible many turns usually have to pass before there's a usable corpse.
Anyhow, playing with vampires is a lot of fun and almost as powerful as the dark knight strategy. And I have no special vampire/undead gear or skills at all!  |
Ah, well if you get that bonus as a transformation, that is probably why.
Yeah, I really don't like the evilN method of restoration. Takes a while since you lose a round to "regain" units via evilN.
I beat the Champion of the Arena using Ancient Vampires and Vampires. I actually completed the Vampire Set and it is quite amazing. I didn't do no-loss since my primary motivator for it is economical and it seemed like I had enough cash to be ok.
No retaliation is quite a bonus, especially against bosses!
