It turns out this is a disgustingly good combo lol also you can buy time with the totems cause the comp always targets them 1st which is essential.

The paladin can take care of most the res, but if need be you have the back up rune mage. So it's pretty sick.

Still would like to know the answers to my questions though
You pick units that can summon cannon fodder, disable units (Cast Slow on melee), Stoneskin and/or Target to force archers to go for stronger units, the stoneskin will protect them from most damage, Oil Mist to force ranged to move or to deal more damage from fire units like Phoenixes or Dragons.

You can use Turn Back Time or Phantom. Phantom helps you resurrect again from the paladins and/or rune mages since cloned or phantomed units have their skills reset.

Assassins are generally not good in the long run.

You can also try to throw in more ranged units.

The warrior is supposed to severely cripple the enemy in the first round. Look at his Onslaught (+ initiative) and/or Quick Draw (+ initiative ro ranged) skills.

Don't dismiss the power of your Pet Dragon either.

Sadly, to win a "no-loss" game, you almost always need Paladins or Rune Mages.

One of the strongest combinations in the game for warrior is to go

Royal Griffins
Paladins
Goblins
Goblin Shaman
Catapults

Royal griffins fly in, and you Phantom them, have them re-summon heavenly guards.

The ranged units surround the paladin, and you fire away with everything else.

Use Paladin second wind to help bolster your attack power, then Prayer to resurrect any losses.

Pet dragon will use mana acceleration so you can keep re-casting phantom, or some buff or debuff.

If you can't resurrect all units in one go, you cast Turn Back Time on the paladin OR phantom to resurrect again.
