No Gift Challenge

[iregev]

Demons can be resurrected Via ressuurection spell.

as for undead...
Vampires and target is preety solid tactics not to get at all
Vampires + sacrifice if somehoe you managed to get hit before you have time back.

Also you can use any natural unit, dragon, beholders, royal snakes, griffins....

it's really not that hard...

undead are overpowered

use your mage to dual cast fireball ice snake firerain w/e

kill an enemy stack

use necro call from the your own necro and voila

let your skelli archers kil the rest and use cursed ghost or ancient vamps to kill the left overs




a better challenge would be with a NEUTRAL unit


so no humans(save for barbs robber pirates)
no elves no orcs no demons no undead

u won't get ANY moral bonus so that should be a HARD CHALLENGE

[iregev]

I don't think undead are overpowered when aim for no loss game beacuse they require micromanagmement to not get hit at all.

I agree that everything with Mage is indeead too easy.
In the orginal post I wrote that this challenge is trictly for warriror / paladin

[Razorflame]

i don't know why people think MAGE games are so easy..
mages got BY FAR the hardest time of doing anything

they got less leadership less use of rage and their spells on impossible won't do a s much damage as a warriors troop can do or a paladin's ones

and since warriors and paladins can use the infnite mana/resu trick as well makes the mages obsolete

and undead are very strong
they can GET HIT just be very smart with cursed ghost and ancient vampires ^^

1 - I think that the general consensus in this forum is that paladin is the most difficult.
2 - Mage spells can to devistating damage, with 35 or 40 intellect and proper items the firerain will do massive damage even on impossible, there are some intresting posts in this forum about it I think.

3 - in my opinion what makes mage the easiest on the "no kill" games is the fact that you can waltz through the toughest battles with only one stack of vampires/dragons using armageddon. try taking in korador on impossible with a paladin with no losses and it will take allot of turns (In my game I did it on level 26! with a perfect set of sword of light and 2 marshal battons to spice my human army - it lasted more then 40 turns to fully resuurect, and I was defeated badly before level 26) a mage however does it more easily.

i find the pally a lot more easy than a mage

due to higher leadership skills and easy acces to tolerance

makes units combinations a lot easier to handle withhout the morale loss

but anyway

a challenge with only neutral units would be very HARD

Oh, thanks... for some reason I confused it with Healing, which says in the description that it doesn't affect demons. Thanks! That's good news. I might switch to Xeona and an all-demon army later on from the Undead units.
