A couple more hours in...
- Your companion, Blackie, can teleport you to and from two of the initial areas, Whitehill and the Shelter, for free, or to any other island for 1000 gold. That's great and will help a lot to reduce travel time for high scores.
- Portland is great fun and reminds me why I like playing KB games. Beautiful landscape, well crafted, maybe 20 enemy stacks max on the island, lots of quests, a few castles. Good fun and completely different to the empty Whitehill.
- Not sure how I would go about no losses. I am losing small amounts of troops on every battle playing as a Demoness. It's great being able to go back to Shelter to replenish units that I've rarely ever used in KB games before, such as Imps and Scoffer Imps.
- Because there is a ridiculous amount of spider eggs to pick up early in the game I'm using Cave Spiders as a meat shield unit for the first time ever. Obviously you wouldn't use them if you were going for no-losses.
- The frenzy mechanic for Demons seems pretty OP/broken to me. The Cerberus has a 'Leap' attack now which allows it to attack the length of the screen without being able to be counterattacked. Because of frenzy I'm ending up being able to use this practically every turn. That's pretty ridiculous and will make the Cerebus an excellent unit.
