gremlin boss help

hahaha, gremlins running loose...

Hmm I'm starting to think I'm trying the gremlins too soon. On impossible going for no losses with my mage tried it at level 44 but didnt go too well. May have a stab at it with a different setup later today.

in this battle i had to use paladins and knights as tanks and dds cause the boss and gremlin towers wiped my inqis and bowmen entirely. I kind of "abused" paladin's resurrection skill by phantoming them like every turn, as long as i had enough mana. There was not big issues about mana cause every time a gremlin tower was destroyed, my rage was filled and i used calm rage spell to fill mana. Kept using archmage's armor ability on paladin and casted geyser or exorcism (does 2x dmg on summoned troops) if towers cast too many troops. This boss was the hardest one i ever had in KB. However at the end my paladins finished as a whole stack without a loss, though other stacks suffered some =)

I only use one stack of black knight and 1 stack of ancient vampire.

Black knight with level 3 stone skin on.
It will hack at the boss.

Ancient vampire will destroy all the aggressive tower.
Leave 1 friendly tower behind so that it will summon
troops and your ancient vampire can restore its itself
by attacking the summoned troop.

Once the boss is killed, just use elvin to resurrect black knight.

Aren't we all gremlins after all ?

2 stack of vampires also work, you don't have to use eviln. They attack the boss and restore while retaliating, or go around and kill the ranged units when they're low.

Warrior on impossible difficulty, level 46, no-loss using droids and undead (black knights and bone dragons).

I guess I could have stuck with less units, or better yet units with good magic resistance (undead have no magic resistance, and droids are even 50% vulnerable to magic), but I wanted to complete the game with a full lineup, and I didn't want to waste time (going for a speed run as well, 7 days target) and gold buying new units and placing my favorite units in a castle/reserve.

Same tactic, stoneskin on black knights who hack at Zilgadis, everyone else kills towers, repair droids attack Zilgadis and guard droids/bone dragons defend when no towers are around, keep a friendly tower alive and kill Zilgadis asap.

If goal is not no-loss game, then warrior or paladin could use cannoniers to destroy towers. Cannoniers have double attack bonus against gremlin towers and better health/leadership ratio than goblins with catapults.
