Trying to play allowing losses is horrible

Same here, playing as a soothsayer and having not an easy time at all.
Certainly hard with the no loss approuch.

Well, if the game is possible to finish without losses it is quite obvious that it can't be very hard to play otherwise.

If players keep insisting that they want a game that can be finished without losses, developers won't make the game so difficult.

Personally I think instead of worrying about losses in a battle, a player should worry about winning a battle.

I totally agree. I wish they would make it so difficult that this no loss nonsense goes right out the window.

After all its war stuff must die!!!!

Partially agree, but in this case the game need much larger reserve. I simply dont have fun when I'm forced to visit 3-5 maps to replenish army after every battle

In my current playthrough, I had 4 fights with massive losses and a few with minor ones. But those no loss battles against deadly to invincible enemies I had to kill were challenging indeed and required different approach.

Skipping ahead zones perhaps can help make it a little more challenging but then your forced to go back and clean up more boring fights

I agree that resupplying armies would require redesign in that case.
