Surviving on Impossible

[Calnus]

You guys are a crazy lot. I've read this thread from head to toe and guess what, i just abandoned my normal mage just to get started on impossible. But guess what it is worth it. More satisfaction in winning harder battle. My game on normal is at Hass Laby and the enemy even though rated very strong is not as tough as it says. Thank god I've read this thread. Thanks guys.

I have been playing with the Palidan on Impossible and it isn't too bad. I made sure I married all 6 girls and had babies with the first 5 so I could get money for them. Then I would buy all the army I could (or items) and dump them so they don't take my money. Yes money is hard to come by but it isn't so bad. I chose the Palidan because I wanted to get more use from my runes since all 3 skills share the Mind runes and the Palidan gets the most of those. My last wife is the Demoness since she has 2 weapon slots. I went ahead and had 1 baby with her and was going to restart the game before I asked her for a child if it wasn't any good. But, it was +10% to Leadership so I kept it. It took 1 of my weapon slots and that was all I was going to do since the second would take my other. I floated around as much as possible and got to the Dragons as fast as possible. Once I had the Dragons their special abilities made the game alot easier. I am all stoked up with reserves of dragons in the Elven Capital and long range dwarves in my own reserves. I am going to go back and get the key now to open the gate to the Crazy Dragon and close the Demon realm. With all of the items that I have I shouldn't have a problem with money to finish the game out.

I do have 1 question though. Is it possible to move a child into another slot? That would help out alot since boots suck and I can get another +5% to Leadership from my next baby. It just isn't worth the weapon slot.

No worries. Have a look at the Impossible Warrior challenge thread for an even harder game.

Oh and Zepdog you can't move children to other slots. Maybe ask in the mod forum though - those guys might know how to get around this.
