I made it to the first hard level on the game, with the badgers and mushrooms come one by one. I can only make it to Level 7 though! =( Anyone have any hints or tips? I always upgrade my mages to Poison Inflictors, as the badgers' and mushrooms' weakness is poison. I never train Knights, and I start building up my units from the middle, as they come from either side of the map. Thanks, I hope someone can help me out. I'm really determined to beat that level.
The way i beat Path to Shoreview was actually with only two mages. That way they collect all the XP. Focused on poison only. All the way. Only the poison effect did dmg, and i spent some points in the general menu so i got more lives. Needed a couple on the 9th wave.
Well, I need help too. I'm on the third level on hard. I always get to the last couple of levels but die out. I have at least half Knights at physical and berserker with Fire and Poison mages with Cripple and Specialism.
This is what worked for me. I placed poison mages all around the outside and energy elemental warriors in the center (to hit the final boss). Used skill points to add extra lives and to get the Destruction mage option. The two mages closest to the entrance/exits went down the inflictor path and all others went down destruction. I paved a couple of spots in the corners where they weren't taking any damage for additional mages and also added a couple of extra spots for warriors in the center.
