Ok, here is my question (this will be long)

I'm lvl 5 Mage, in my army I have : -1 beholder
-2 archmages
-12 sea dogs
-13 robbers
-1 inquisitor
I cant have more army cause of the Leadership, ofc...
I have finished every quest in Debir, except the old castle, its very hard.
I came to the 2nd island Scarlet wind, but here I have a problem.
Almost every enemy is INVINCIBLE. I cant fight without loosing all the army, and I cant go anywhere else to level up, cause I finished everything on the 1st island. (my lvl of difficulty is Normal, btw)
So, what should I do? I'm I doing smth wrong about the army, or?
Or is the point of the game that I should fight with this INVICIBLE creeps, kill as much as I can, and than just get a new army and so on and on, if you understand me? I cant explore anything cause of this hard creeps, plz help me


PLZZZZ HELP ME )

Ok, tnx a lot, hope you read it ASAP.

your army is terrible your archmage and inquis are the only correct units you have, the rest shouldn't be in your army there are alot better to have in your army...

bowman for starters are very powerful when used correctly, sadly the comp ai loves to aim these guys which creates annoyances but archers are a must have epsecially if your playing a mage.

i recommend geting these in your army or as backup....knights, paladins, red dragons (when your the right level), green dragons ("), swordsman, gaurdsmen, fire dragonflys (if your doing the smart thing with your pet dragon, which is collecting treasure chests x2 in battles, once you get to the level where you can find 2 chests dont level it anymore)

peasents are another must.... the last moment i used my peasents before upgrading i had around the 1k+ of them, now take note all tho when they get hit you can lose big numbers they are very cheap to buy back, cheapest unit to get im pretty sure, could be wrong but lol

when you have 1k+ of them they can do a good amount of dmg and can be used to tank dmg via blocking or tempting the comp ai to attack them due to distance.

at level 5 you should have priests in your group with the inquis and archmage.. thing is tho i dont understand how you got archmages and with the count of 5 of them i dont understand why you would risk losing such a strong unit...

do not use them until you are sure you can replenish your archamage losses when needing to rez more then one type of unit including the archmage.

those are the only units you should ever waste money on or use, the other units have no point in getting them.

...or he's just that good that he knows to tank with something better than peasants, like something that could take hits without any casualties at all (cyclops/dragons early in the game), or are easy to resurrect and have high defense (black knights with eviln spell or paladins with resurrect/phantom and their built-in ability). Even at the very early part of the game you could tank with a single griffin (from a griffin egg) or create summons from royal thorns.

Maybe you played KBTL and found out that level 5 units in that game were not up to par with an equal amount of leadership lower level unit types. FYI, they "fixed" the level 5 units in KBAP and are now worth their weight in gold and leadership.

If you really want to tank with your peasant, I would suggest having level 3 pain mirror and turn back time (any level) to make some fun out of it.

nah u dont need pain mirror at all, my army consists of 60 inques, 30 archmages, 3 red dragons, 3 green dragons, 121 archers, at the moment,

this army is almost unstoppable due to me tanking and raping with the 2 dragons me using phantom on my inques making me never have any losses on troops about 99% of the time, and with my spells and ranged attack i just face roll pretty much anything... i have alot of knights, pallys, calvs, gaurdsmen on standby for when i vs stuff that my current army may have trouble with... example big amount of dragons i then switch one of my units for knights who face roll dragons especially with the dragon slayer spell...

when i was around level 5 peasents was a very good tanking unit to use due to the fact they are so cheap and the dmg they did in numbers was right where i needed it to be.

i loled in rl at this clueless post....

firstly if u bothered to check ur facts before choosing to make a fool of urself... u cant have dragons at lvl 5 its not possible gj clueless one...

and cyclopes? ive seen almost the entire game and never came across any unit called cyclopes, i doubt a lvl 5 can see or get them :S

"(black knights with eviln spell or paladins with resurrect/phantom and their built-in ability)" another idiotic comment posted by u....

again he is lvl 5 i highly doubt u can get those at lvl 5....

oh btw "or he's just that good that he knows to tank with something better than peasants" was the stupidest part of ur entire post fyi.

"Even at the very early part of the game you could tank with a single griffin (from a griffin egg) or create summons from royal thorns."

to this stupid comment i say this... a smart player sells the eggs because a) tanking with grifs will only get u so far at lvl 5 and u will eventually lose especially when u have as many inques as the op stated he had....

and royal thorns are not good tanking units most part because at lvl 5 u cant get alot of them.... they dont have alot of movement and i could be wrong about this bit but im almost certain they are ranged attackers....

tanking with ranged what will noobs think of next :S

please be sure to check ur facts before making a fool of urself no offense

oh and btw rezin via paladin is the stupidest way to rez... i mean dont get me wrong if the opportunity arises then ye go for it but ur main rezing should be coming from ur inques and phantoms of inques.

i recommend geting these in your army or as backup....knights, paladins, red dragons (when your the right level), green dragons ("), swordsman, gaurdsmen, fire dragonflys (if your doing the smart thing with your pet dragon, which is collecting treasure chests x2 in battles, once you get to the level where you can find 2 chests dont level it anymore)

lol man, where can I find those knights and dragons and swordsmans?
I havent found them :S
even not on Bolo island, or whatever the name is...

swordsman should be at your starting castle...

for knights and red dragons you need to go on to venora or how ever you spell it and then find that archmage standing gaurd on that hugh bridge kill him and click on the portal behind him and there you go.

I never claimed to be good at this game, I just find it interesting that you chose peasants as a tank considering how hard they are to keep alive, which in turn makes it counterproductive to getting the Grand Strategy medal as soon as possible. It never entered my thoughts as I'm playing no-loss impossible, hence the chuckle. I can certainly see how others not doing likewise might find use in peasants for such a role. Freedom to mix and match as you please is one of the great things about this game, after all.

In any case, I'm wondering why the bolded portion is the "smart thing" when a fully leveled Treasure Searcher (2 more levelups from where you are) gets you 3 chests at 8 rage a piece as opposed to 2 chests at 9 rage a piece...
