How do you pass "The Valley of Death" [Son of Blac

Post by pravin »

I have about 150 gold. 4 level 2 crossbowmen, nearly levelled assasin and orcish grunt and a level 2 goblin rider.

I guess fighting all the scorpions is out of the question. I try keeping a dying unit as a decoy and taking the other units across the desert, but the scorps always go for my shamans. And even if they went for the dying units, I guess I would not be able to outrun the remaining in the desert

If you have Kapou'e at level 3, the shamans are really good for fighting the scorpions. They suck loads of HP out of them, losing their chance-to-be-killed and thus making the AI practically ignore them.
It's all fun and games until someone loses a lawsuit. Oh, and by the way, sending me private messages won't work. :/ If you must contact me, there's an e-mail address listed on the website in my profile.

That never seems to work for me, the scorpions just gang up and pound them to a sticky red paste :cry:

I still think shamen should be able to heal......

recruit 2 orc grunts to take the damage. the 2 grunts + gruu (troll dude) should be placed such that the shamans + orc leader will be attacked by 1 scorp only. yeah, and use the castle. they provide 60% defence as opposed to the desert (30%)
