NO loss first island tips!

[Razorflame]

on normal it should be a piece of cake imho


The ai is getting prodictable

Personally i think the best combination is

Skald+order+nature call on any difficulty for beating a no loss game

y, I would agree but if u do not find enough magic runes to get order and only one nature scroll, u are fcked pretty much. I gave up with these circumstances after uncountable hours trying the necromancer...

razorflame, do you think you can be more condescendant ?
Anyway.

I tried a fighter in impossible. Still no call of nature and no healing scroll.

Precisely, 30 fights are possible before ahriman.
- 27 are doable without any loss.
- The 28th (near the magic door to the shipwreck) is extremely hard (EQUAL SIZE of our troop number) but doable with luck (I tried about 15 times).
- 29th and 30th are absolutely not doable (one DEADLY with 70/70/139 skeleton fighters and 119/119 skeleton archers, other STRONG with 28/28/55 zombies, 93 skeleton archers, 3 ghosts). May be with randomization of troops, with bears it could be possible, but still...

With these 28 fights, still level 4, I had 950 on 952 xp points needed to level 5... So indeed as it is said in another topic, leveling is slower in "impossible"...
Furthermore, I came very quickly to the level 1 award "gifted warrior" which add 5% xp on battle...

I now try skald and stop searching for a no loss game if I do not succeed

One thing important that has not been said : the beserkers shield is really usefull. It double defense of vikings (+10) and beserkers (+14).

why you need to do No loss in all battles ?
I think we just need about first 100 no loss for maximum leadersip!
In imposible, it's getting so hard to fight boss (maybe u have to try dozen times, for a no loss with boss)
You can have some berserker die, and it's ok, there are tons of them outhere to replenish.
And i think there no way to finish the game 100% battle no loss (imposible), there are time you have to sacrifire some I think!

You are in for a rude awakening. I think that this first chokepoint fight was just a way for the devs to say "hey, don't bother with no loss, it's impossible in this game". The first boss is simply impossible to do without loss, although getting to that fight might be, if you try really hard.

Heck, with the very narrow unit selection given to you for that first boss, not only no loss is undoable, but the fight itself is a close call on impossible. At least it was with my lvl 20 soothsayer (maybe warriors have it easier with better leadership?). So don't bother going for no loss, unless you want to do it up to the first boss for some reason.

You do it with trolls, pretty easy stuff so yea it's possible. I've done it on impossible and others too so don't scare the guy
