How to droid no loss?

[lochrist]

I am playing the Ocs campaign in Crossworlds. Which is if I understand correctly the same campaign as Armored princess but with some new added content.

I haven't found any archmage yet. And I haven't found the Magic Spring spell. Also I am not able to kite most of the "inmovable guardians" keeping navigation charts. I guess I need to polish my kiting skills!

Thanks for your answers.

Ah OK , i thought you play regular AP since this is in AP part of forum, not CW
As for archmages they should be for sure in shop scarlet wind, little island across of castle guarded by relatively weak undead skeletons and archers, i found archmages there every time i played game.
Finding spells is never sure, just hope for luck And did you check wizard tower on debir ? You get free spell scrolls there in every lvl of tower, but unlike units you can take there for fight scrolls stay in your spellbook after you leave tower and they are free just depend of your spellbook capacity. Try passing at least 1 lvl there to check spells available on 2nd lvl, maybe you get lucky (pass guardian no matter losses just go check spells in shops).
And in almost all my games i found verona map on scarlet wind behind guardian where richard the cruel patrol, so after clearing enemy you can on those islands try kiting only that guardian and again hope for verona map
On side note, try finding somewhere list of usable items in game, expl : amulet of illumination quest items you get in bolo underground, right click it before returning it to the debir temple for 2nd stone. This way you get free 50 leadership.
Antidote potion you find in elon for tortuga tavern quest in rusty anchor, use it and get free 5 mana, etc there are lots of this items in game (at least 20) and nice free rewards from them but i can remember them all

you don't need any man or rage with droids(well having it i always better)

but

the trick to win no loss with droids is

1 guard droid

2 stacks of repair droids


now do the battle as u normally would

but LET 1 stack of ANY KIND be alive with LESS than 10 UNITS)



then just wait and wait until u can repair


the damage of 1 stack will be so little then u can easily repair it in 1 turn
or the damage is so low that i cannot kill 1 unit of the droids


just make sure 1 stack is alive with 10 or less UNITS


if there are only melee types make sure u let the SLOWEST stack be alive so u can just move away from the bugger everytime it moves so it can never hit u



for rage use the weakest damage dealer alive with less than 10
same goes for magic

by utilizing the repair skill of the repair droids u will always have a no loss game
