Plz help me, I have a question. :)

[Shady]

Ok, I started to play this game yesterday, and its very very fun. Ist time I play the game like this and I rly like it.
Ok, here is my question (this will be long)

I'm lvl 5 Mage, in my army I have : -1 beholder
-2 archmages
-12 sea dogs
-13 robbers
-1 inquisitor
I cant have more army cause of the Leadership, ofc...
I have finished every quest in Debir, except the old castle, its very hard.
I came to the 2nd island Scarlet wind, but here I have a problem.
Almost every enemy is INVINCIBLE. I cant fight without loosing all the army, and I cant go anywhere else to level up, cause I finished everything on the 1st island. (my lvl of difficulty is Normal, btw)
So, what should I do? I'm I doing smth wrong about the army, or?
Or is the point of the game that I should fight with this INVICIBLE creeps, kill as much as I can, and than just get a new army and so on and on, if you understand me? I cant explore anything cause of this hard creeps, plz help me

Obviously you are doing something wrong (e.g you haven't collected all leadership banners or something). There are some troops in scarlet wind which are "invincible" when you go there first time but most of the troops should be "equal in strenght" or "slightly weaker" and even "weak" on normal or easy, there's also troops that might be strong or very strong.

[Shady]

Well can you help me? Cause i dont know what to do. Yes, I have picked up all the leadership baners, my leadership is 632. :S
Maybee its if I get some other troops? (but I dont knwo wich ones)
Just dont know what to do :C
All the enemies In Scarlet have like 34 pirates or 45 or smth like that, and I cant have more than 13, 14...

? :S

[Shady]

Ok, explain me this... almost EVERY creep in scarlet has like 32 archers, 25 sea dogs, 47 goblins, 50 dragonfly or snakes or whatever and I cant have more than 25 troops overall? :S

Wtf, how am I supposed to beat those creeps? :S

[rancor26]

If you have 632 leadership GET THE MAX AMOUNT OF TROOPS YOU CAN GET i mean if you have one inquisitor or one beholder it's not even close to the 632 leadership so i have no idea what you are talking about when you said "i can't have more army cause of the leadership"

[Shady]

Look at this screenshot. :S
And look how little troops I have, and I cant have more.
All the troops here have like 5x more troops than me :C
Am I still doing smth wrong?
Want more screenshots?
I'm glad you are helping me thou. . .

your army is terrible your archmage and inquis are the only correct units you have, the rest shouldn't be in your army there are alot better to have in your army...

bowman for starters are very powerful when used correctly, sadly the comp ai loves to aim these guys which creates annoyances but archers are a must have epsecially if your playing a mage.

i recommend geting these in your army or as backup....knights, paladins, red dragons (when your the right level), green dragons ("), swordsman, gaurdsmen, fire dragonflys (if your doing the smart thing with your pet dragon, which is collecting treasure chests x2 in battles, once you get to the level where you can find 2 chests dont level it anymore)

peasents are another must.... the last moment i used my peasents before upgrading i had around the 1k+ of them, now take note all tho when they get hit you can lose big numbers they are very cheap to buy back, cheapest unit to get im pretty sure, could be wrong but lol

when you have 1k+ of them they can do a good amount of dmg and can be used to tank dmg via blocking or tempting the comp ai to attack them due to distance.

at level 5 you should have priests in your group with the inquis and archmage.. thing is tho i dont understand how you got archmages and with the count of 5 of them i dont understand why you would risk losing such a strong unit...

do not use them until you are sure you can replenish your archamage losses when needing to rez more then one type of unit including the archmage.

those are the only units you should ever waste money on or use, the other units have no point in getting them.

it works when you have 1k of them... they dont cost much... id rather tank with units i wont use late game then use units i will and lose them because i have to rez other more important units...

...or he's just that good that he knows to tank with something better than peasants, like something that could take hits without any casualties at all (cyclops/dragons early in the game), or are easy to resurrect and have high defense (black knights with eviln spell or paladins with resurrect/phantom and their built-in ability). Even at the very early part of the game you could tank with a single griffin (from a griffin egg) or create summons from royal thorns.

Maybe you played KBTL and found out that level 5 units in that game were not up to par with an equal amount of leadership lower level unit types. FYI, they "fixed" the level 5 units in KBAP and are now worth their weight in gold and leadership.
