Well, to be blunt, in the beginning this type of play didn't suit me either. I was close to shelving the game a couple of times, I was close to bashing my PC on other occasions. However, in the end, I didn't give up, and I adapted my new play style to the one that KBAP requires.

By that I mean:
- not necessarily going for all medals
- if I'm going for the medals, I make an army + skill + spell setup that will help me achieve them
- considering units that complement each other
- considering various lineups for the different battles
- based on the enemy composition, using different tactics
- getting used to spending less money and sticking with my original lineup as much as I can
- if I can't win a battle, I look for various alternatives

You should also be aware that the game is not linear. Nobody forces you to go from the first island, then the second, then the third. Kiting away the map guards and opening the entire world is a big asset. If you even manage to do a few quests, you will have the easiest game start ever.

For a reference, in KBTL I could simply get magic spring, resurrection and poison cloud then simply make a 140 turn battle to recover all my troops. KBAP presents various new options and possibilities. Use them. Do not limit yourselves. This is KBAP, not KBTL.
