impy, the game can give you Ancient Amulet right from the start. I found it at the university at Debir in my current game. Also found Gladiator Sword in Bolo. That's 10 extra might and magic runes
The randomness of the game makes every run-through different, sometimes very different. My impossible warrior has just passed 100 battles and just recently found the Trap spell. I have already maxed Guardian Angle and are 2 Battle Cry's away from maxing Iron Knight. I find killing the units with traps are much harder this late in the game. Since my warrior has only 9 Intellect the traps spell does only 295-440 damage on level 2. It can be a little hard to kill enemies with this damage when they tend to start with a health between 10 and 20 000 at the moment. Also, when I attack a stack I normally do 2000 in damage. My pet dragon kicks for ca 900 so by combining troop attacks and dragon kick (I am not aiming for the ultimate challange, just a no loss on impossible with warrior.) I should be able to get the remaining health below 300... In all the other games I have played, Trap was available very early in the game. This game has so far been quite different since I have had no pre-set traps waiting for an unlucky enemy...
