I was using ogres then, and with only 10 ogres (as i remember) and the rage skill, i killed a stack of 6 black dragons in only 1 hit xD (but i think it was a critical hit). I really dont needed fire protection. I think the more level 5 troops u have, the more easy is the battle against dragons. I cant remember the last time i played with level < 5 troops, but high dragon stacks is not a threat for me anymore xD.

well, i didn't count 'em precisely, but as i remember there was 26 black, 19 red and 17 green all in one stack plus some minor red and green stacks.
i'm pretty sure that before battle i had less than 40 dragons killed, and after battle dragon medal showed 136! i was amazed myself when i saw how big number is.
since i had items that i mentioned before, i used my standard formation: knights, paladins, archmages and droids. it was a no loss battle
i love to do no loss battles so i avoid lvl 5 units, especially in late game.

Must be a strategic matter, cuz i can do no losses battles with level 5 troops more easily than with level 1-4. Specially in later islands -.-

Higher defense and resistance, and more HP? That's good for no loss, huh. Who'd have thought.

not really

i prefer fast units

being quicker means u can act faster and have more tactics avaible..

level 5 units cost alot of leadership

which could weaken your army quite a bit

i prefer high quantities of level 4 units they >level 5 with ease

LOL, if all the level 5 units were faster, it will be just a waste of time xD. I use dragons, trolls (fighting at night), cyclops, ogres and inquisitors (my only level < 5 unit -.-). As u can see, there is no speed issue with that level 5 units, dragons can fly, trols gain +2 speed at night (and regenerates), i can cast haste on ogres or use the rage ability, and cyclops attacks either from distance or melee, if u cast stone skin on cyclops they are one of the most hard to kill creatures on the game. All my level 5 units can be healed (except cyclops) and resurrected, and if u have more speed that doesnt mean u can act faster, that depends on the initiative. The slowest level 5 unit i have, ogres, gain initiative everytime it kills a troop. And Trolls gain initiative fighting at night. Red dragons have good initiative. I really dont care about using level 4 or level 5 units, i just played too many games and wanted to play in a different way -.-.

Level 5 Army I used for (most of) my no loss Impossible: Black Dragons, Red Dragons, Green Dragons, Bone Dragons, Arch Demons.

"Slowest" unit is a green dragon. I have no idea where you are getting that level 5's are slow. Archies are the fastest unit in the game.

Isn't it max morale that they gain?

Yup, the first troop is killed, orcs gain +10 morale, the initiative bonuse is for trolls playing at night, sorry for that i just mixed things xD. Remember that more morale, more atk and def u have. So, ogres are really dangerous against level 5 troops, that combined with its rage ability, can do hurt really bad to any dragon or level 5 troop.
