Default Re: Invading heroes?

The best you can do is to make lemonade out of the lemons. Hellbind heart, charm , enslave can net you some nice fire power. You'll want redundancy and flyers to distract the back row. Surround your mages with guards so you don't get whacked right off. Last game I grabbed Bogus but was too aggressive in my scripting (devils with attack rear, archers) and killed the rest of the crew before I could hellbind them (as EA Abysia). A few games back I charmed 3 of them and made surprisingly good use of the archer.

Remember it is considered an exploit to copy their unique orders :attack Mage, etc to your other commanders. However, IMHO it's ok to leave them with those orders..

The air and the earth/astral mages will buff the first round. The flyer will go right for your mages...

In a current game with the mod nation Sylvania, I also got 3 with HH. I'm pretty sure I would have gotten more but for the zeal of my new recruits. iirc, the dark knight flew right at the troll mage and killed him quickly. I think the other guy went down to Bogus himself. Best laid plans and all ...
