with a few highly upgraded units its fairly easy even on the hardest difficulity... i had 3 pikemen first, now i'm invading turkey and i have only 5 units:)
Prometheus14: Had you read the 'Protectopedia', you wouldnt have said that... It clearly states that absorb turns the elemental strength's damage into health...
dice rolls are crap... i cant take over a 3 dice territory with 6 dices? wtf... (i lost 5 dice, opponent 0). And its not bad luck because it happens about 80% of attacks.
saving is crap.... it puts you in the game, though you can only save at the shop-menu... So this means i start with 24% health when i load the game... sh.tty
it takes me about two rounds.:) First round my ranger shoots Hail of Arrows (with 40% lethality:)), it kills about 3-5 normal creatures, then the mage casts electrical storm or her normal attack. Clerics finish the left. Then everyone is dead.:)
with 2 cleric, 1 mage and 1 ranger its rather easy, even on hardcore level:)
(only the final boss managed to kill a party member, and it was only because my damage reflection:))
