No Loss Paladin
Just finished my first No Casualty game. Since I wasn't sure I wanted to spend TOO much time on it, I only played on Hard.
Result was a 19 day victory. I used no map kiting, and defeated Ktahu and Baal with the same strategy: A single stack of 39 Bone Dragons, summon Phoenix, and Eviln. Why Summon Phoenix? So that I can cast Fit of Energy on the bone dragon later in the turn to have it attack twice per turn. This allowed me to kill Ktahu 'very quickly' for a single stack battle. It also prevented me from having to overlap stone skins (Casting when you have 1 turn left so that you aren't vulnerable for a turn). I took some screen shots that I'll put up at some point. I managed to complete TWO different item sets: The winter set, and the Demon Set. |

You used eviln spell and single stack but how come you didn't use Black Knights considering they do much more damage after being attacked(damage to leadership ratio)?
And how is it possible for Paladin to have 39 boners, when at maximum of lvl 60 you have leadership for only 17? Last edited by Hento; 01-25-2010 at 07:53 AM. |

As for the extra bone dragons, I assume he used +leadership items and flaming eyes + necro staff which reduces the requirements for undead units. The higher the level and leadership requirement of the unit, the better the cutoff will be. -10% out of 150 is 15, while -10% out of 1300 is 130. That's quite a lot In any case, good work doing that with bone dragons. That was good thinking - the demons in the final battle are very susceptible to poison damage. I also agree that Black knights with necro staff, black helmet and splinter of darkness are unmatched, but the latest research made by unicornxp shows that Moro Dark is one of the best XP fights, so if you're striving for a higher ending lvl, he has to die.

I pick units when playing as warrior mainly based on their looks, so Knights, Paladins and Horseman as best looking units and having the visuals of a proper and human military is somewhat more appealing than going for maximum combinations. And there is more sense of accomplishment when using them against the odds.

Also, bone dragons have better mobility, and best of all, an AoE poison attack that is no retaliation and hits bosses. The real reason though, is that the all dragon army is so amazingly strong, that I'd have to go through a lot of extra work just to get black knights, for no real gain. Victory was never in question with Bonies. My army for most battles was Red, Green, Black dragons, and then some combination of Bowmen, Trolls, or Cyclopses. My final and best army at end was Archdemons, Red,Green,Black,Bone dragons. That's the army I finished Nameless, shattera, and reha With. |
