@ Elwin : While my battle tactics weren't mindlessly rushing I didn't use anything along the lines of sacrifice/magic spring and so on and didn't come across any resurrection scrolls until I got to Kordar, and even then I only found one by sneaking around in Demonis.
I'll admit I was careless in cases but I wasn't ENTIRELY unaware of how to use my units effectively, however it was a long time before I was able to start bringing them back to life mid-fight.
As for the load screen showing what difficulty I'm on - it doesn't in fact. If it does in your game then I can't explain why, but I assure you it's not obviously stated anywhere.
@ Akimbo : I've dug up some nice chests over the course of my exploration and it has helped a lot. There's a good chance I've missed some as well, so your advice could possibly be what I need to do in order to somehow rescue my game. All that said, I get the feeling that even if I can get enough money to raise a decent army it'll be too little too late and I would be better off starting from scratch, my lesson learnt.
