BTW i have restared on the same map because i tried out all dragon skills and a felt that i should be more focused.
I tried to skip Dive and i failing to win sometimes even agains "equal strengt" enemies (withouse loss ofc). I feel that Dive is a must between battle 40 and 100 after battle 120 it did not really mattered, with a good build and army setup i was able to beat invinciable heroes with no loss. No i am not sure i should go back to battle 30 and choose dive or go back top battle 150 and live with a few badly spent point on dragon skills but i think i will do the later...

In my opinion, you should go on. Dive seems as great a skill in the beginning, as pointless and stupid it looks in the middle of the game, where it simply doesn't do much. Pushing towards skill like Lava call and Fiery Phantoms is much better, and the way to those skills (which require a certain dragon level) lies in Ball of Lightning, Mana Accelerator and Mystic Egg, as they are one of the best skills to pump up dragon XP AND be useful altogether.
In my opinion, even Mystic Egg is better than dive, because if you improve it well, you get a strong lvl 2-5 troop which alone can win your battles.

Well, I used Dragon Dive a fair bit in those earlier stages of the game too, but every becomes very easy by about the 120-130 fight stage anyway, so don't start again now. I used Fiery Phantoms a lot in my game, as well as Ball of Lightning. Ultimately, I only really used those two in the late game and Dragon Kick and Treasure Searcher in the earlier stages. I found that an upgraded Dragon Kick does have some strategic value when it can push enemies 3 squares.

confessions of a paladin
when I first heard of no-loss impossible quest it really tempted me (my friend told me, as he knew I always play the games on the hardest possible), and I felt like i had to achieve it! and i jumped on it without even reading any forums and utilizing-sharing peoples strategy ideas. I started a paladin 'cos i like a balanced hero, but seems like its not the best choice as I read. the fist time I found my first paladin unit and resurrection spell (yes both in the same place) was not until I fought over 130 no-loss hard won battles with blood and tears (and Zhuangzi I know what its to be married and investing your 8 hrs a day in a game, it could be a pain in the ass
 and all about the golden games of past.. (MOO2, Master of magic, star control 2, heroes2-3, romance of the three kingdoms series, starwars x-wing, tie fighter, x-com ufo, jagged alliance2 and unfinished business.. and it goes on.., check out www.hotud.org for the old games and such. I have a PS2 and 3 and I dont even want to mention my months dedicated into square enix games.. (did anybody say FinalFantasy being a hardcore gamer I felt like home while reading these threads. after the paladins, it was relatively easy, with the inquisitor's sword I could get 75 paladins, and 120 inquisitors.. but up until now I avoided boss fights, maybe with the addition of paladins in my army, I should give it a try.. my strategy up until now was using target lvl 3 on my dragon, increasing its defence with stone skin, raising them with inquisitors if needed be and wiping them away with my beholders. on though fights I accumulate my rage -either with potion or after a relatively easy fight without using much mana- and lay a mystic egg. it really helps, anything that tanks is more than welcome. my army consists of; beholders evil beholders red dragons paladins inquisitors being a paladin hero, inquisitors and paladins are utitilized at maximum with increased dmg and such.. I also completed the inquisitor set. one hint that i want to share is about battlefield. İslands consist of parcels of different battlefields. we all know very well that even the tiny obstacle on that battlefield saved our life countless times. when you enter an area the game creates all the battlefields, and place them on island. if you didnt like it, you can exit and enter area again. if not the shape of the battlefield change, the places of the obstacle do.. sometimes you should lure an enemy to better battle grounds on your behalf.. for example you wouldnt want to fight with an undead army in a graveyard if you could.. one great place to fight and win an invincible enemy easily is on dersu island, right in front of the spiders cave. Dont you like those battlefields with only 3 square(they r more like hexagonals I guess) wide path? and if there r some obstacles too its almost only one square for enemy units to pass. there's one lizardmen hero with only melee fighters and only uses phantom spell.. an easy catch.. and you can lure other gusy to this battlefield too.. btw there's this dersu island and uzala island in the game. actually Dersu Uzala is the name of the oscar winning movie filmed by Akira Kurosawa in 1972, original name 'dersou ouzala' akira kurosawa filmed it based on the russian explorer vlademir arseniev's memoirs.. I think this is where the developers of the game inspired. The movie is really moving, I recommend it. anyway thnx for reading ppl, this is my very first entry on this forum. P.S. I still didnt finish the game Last edited by golgo13; 01-11-2010 at 03:14 PM.

In a galaxy far far away
being a paladin you have gotta be somewhere in btw warrior and mage, but somehow I always end up having intelligence as my highest stat. unlike the heroes series, in this game all ur stats come from items and altars/training dummies u touch. so I guess its more like a choice than a fate. but the real sad thing is I dont even use a dmg spell ever. As a conclusion my stats really suck.
One issue I want to underline is my army. although I prefer archers(beholders or elven ones depending on the enemies resistances) to be the main dmg source, my paladins also hit hard. I see that for no-loss impossible run paladins are a crucial element. so why not utilize them in battle? they seem to be slow and we need them right in the center of our troops to resurrect them. to overcome these issues I recommend teleport spell. it comes very handy, your paladins are right there when you need'em and where you need'em, almost like the cavalry. and towards the end of the battle you can place them right in the center of you troops via teleport. and about star control 2 (there was also project nomad from the old times) it realy brings back sweet memories. years later I also finished star control 3, but I couldnt get the same taste. space rangers 2 did excite me for real, its a real gem with all those details and beautiful 2D graphics (oh how I miss'em) if only I could find time to play it more. do you recommend it? 'cos honestly I still have its shortcut on my desktop.. P.S. I think it'd be fun if ppl could share screen-shots of their desktops

Yes, I'd recommend Space Rangers 2. Katauri did a 'Reboot' edition which is basically the patched game. I played both versions and honestly there isn't that much difference. I think I played SR2 through twice and I loved doing so, but I got to the stage where I didn't see what else of interest there was to do with the game. The actual combat (i.e. space ship battles) are quite weak, so I don't think it has the long term appeal of King's Bounty. But that's just my opinion.
My desktop isn't very interesting at present. The game I've been playing a fair bit of recently is PopCap's Plants vs Zombies, which is an insanely fun casual game. I played at least 20-30 hours of this over a week or so. That's the only game I've enjoyed other than KB:AP in the past couple of months.
