** dont you think if you start with high level troops game will be too easy and boring?

that's why I want to fight with level 2 units (cuz g-xxx and bright w are all level 3 or 4) and no because you only place one (only the ice mage or pistoliers) or two (flagellants+ogres) regiments (you don't place the 5 or 10) per battle.

PS:I am also a great fan of brigandine-forsena, and in that one is the same idea when all your knights and monsters are lvl 30, instead of fighting with:
 3 knights + 12-21 monsters (you) vs 3 knights + 12-21 monsters (pc)
you fight with:
 1 knight + 3 monsters (you) vs  3 knights + 12-21 monsters (pc)

Well you have to open the last savegame (after beating the Dread King) with Wh32Edit). And open GameData\1parm\Plyr_all.arm in a 2nd window.
Now copy each regiment from the savegame and paste it into the plyr_all file.
This way you start with the experience from the end game and you can start a "New Game+"

Well I tried it, it worked but ...
1)Except for g-cal/inf/cro/can + bright mage all the other regiments can't be deployed in battle.
2)However they are there I can see my ogres/pistoliers/elves/ragnars/mortar with their items and experience.

I want to train from the first mission with my icemage, my gunners, my flagellants, ....

Oh god!!, that is what I wanted, Nice tip

Thanks and see ya.

Thanks I will try the wh32edit. Now that I think better, I not sure  if it was Northeast or Northwest (but is sure that it is the last mummy regiment and is 11/11).

Damn my July holiday has ended, no more 12 hours per day of playing pc games.

See ya.

First, this is the holy truth: 

Flagellants:
Small little regiment but their attacks are devastating - Nothing more satisfying than seeing a mini group of unarmored lunatics spinning their flails over their heads and making corpses fly all over the place. They're often my prime choice for Shield of Ptolos because (despite being cheap to replace) you do not want them to sustain too many losses, especially not from artillery or archers (probably their weakest issue). The fact that they don't even know fear is a huge plus but also sometimes a bit of a curse seeing as you can never manually flee them from a battle that they may eventually end up losing.

top 5 liked
-flagellants
-fire wizard (or bright)
-elven archers
-pistoliers
-ogres

top 5 hated
-tank (very slow, short range, no items)
-dwarfs (too late in the game)
-greatswords (because of flagellants and grudgebringer's infantry they have no place in battle)
-ice mage (no teleport and too late in the game)
-mortar (I don't hated but in the last 3 missions is quite useless)

the 5 must
-grudgebringer's cavalry (actually is the only one which must be always at the battlefield)
-grudgebringer's infantry (if you are smart is the only infantry that you can train up to lvl 3)
-grudgebringer's crossbows (unless you want many losses at the beginning, they are must)
-ragnar's calvary (is your second cavalry and if you don't get them you won't get staff of osiris)
-grudgebringer's cannon (makes the last mission a piece of cake, there are some missions that it must be replace with mortar or icemage)

Hi, I didn't knew that there was a fan site of this awesome game. I first played it with my ps at 2001, then at 2003 and 2005.

A couple of days ago I had some free time and I decided to get a pc version, I got it and completed it today (oh yeah that dread king wasn't that tough). I get some items that I couldn't remember the staff of osiris and the spell eater shield.

Let's get to the point:
1) Has anybody notice that in the last mission, (with g-cal, g-can, g-inf, g-cro, ogres, ragnar-w, fire-w, elven-ar, pistolers and those crazy 9) after ( 1r{2mm+1nec}, 2r{4arc+1cat}, 3r{2mm+2mm(that protect)}, 4r{1dk}, 5r{3mm} ) the fourth mummies (from the northeast 11/11) has a 2/11 that fllee (with a white banner) but can't be killed (I tried like 20 min with g-cal charge and ragnar-w charge with crismon-bands of fire-w +arrows +bullets +ball cannon and nothing, they were immortal). Also my pistolers couldn't move (only charge and shoot). Is this a bug? (I say this because those 2 mummies, I think I had the same problem in my ps version)

2)Is there a way (a simple way, cuz I had a savegame editor) to restart from mission 1 with all your regiments (with acc experience) and items? or to modify the game so when a battle is ended, have an option to make it again for more exp items and gold??

Thanks in advance
