I face these forces:

55 undead spiders
49 skeleton archers
34 zombies
12 ghosts
7 vampires
1 ancient vampire

what do u think is the best line up against these forces? I tried with so much... really wanna beat this, without restart

this stack is pretty easy give me some info for your battle

I would replace the bears with vikings (for one simple reason positive morale and their mad rage to crit some enemies down)

slpit soothsayers and 1 stack of axethrowers

and depends does he use a spell first turn or not?

if he does use the edda song to get a random spell effect(at my games he mostly dispelled the bad effect he had on his units)

instead of a damaging spell so i could use slingers too

took me a while to figure it out but heck

Call of Colossus exists? Well that pretty much solves the spider. Just so long as you can somehow always get this scroll from that one mission. I don't know if they are randomized in any reasonable way there, and I don't recall how you get it. At some point, one guy gives you a quest to go somewhere and you likely already have a map for it, so you get the scroll instead. If you can do some RNG gaming, you should get whatever scroll you want.

Then feed to the bird so that you can summon more of whatever level 5 you want later on... and no problemo!

I just wish that cheese wasn't required so early. It's one thing at the end of a 70 level game to do a little hoodwinking, but a quarter of the way in? Meh.
