I've tried to like this game, and as a fan of the Panzer General/Fantasy General series (which were much better balanced), I should really like this game. But I don't. And nor do most reviewers, and the game buying public. After the complaints about Fantasy Wars I would have thought the developers would listen to the complaints about the game difficultly. I was wrong, Elven Legacy is as popular as it deserves to be - not at all popular.
The game will become more difficult the worse you do, and it sounds like you managed your army poorly. Balance does not equal difficulty. If you played the game Fire Emblem and got most of your main army killed, you're going to find the last few missions to be difficult if not impossible. You were punished for playing poorly and should restart instead of whine and make wrong claims about game balance and difficulty, a subject you obviously know little about.

Elven Legacy is actually a well balanced series of campaigns with a gradual difficulty curve (most of the time), and no particularly overpowered units or abilities.
