Regarding the quest to finish the Dark Priests with losing less then 300 recruits i have a small suggestion.
In the separete guide you don't get full xp because you skip a bunch of camps and not clear every area.
I just did this whole adventure following the normal guide, but with a small chance:
I mixxed in some Militia to replace recruits in the heavier casualties assaults.
Offcourse you can't / shouldn't do that on suicide waves, but on the attacks on camp 6, 12, 8-9 and 10 you can easily do this.
I ended up losing +/- 100 Militia, clearing the whole map and losing less then 300 Recruits.
Using 3 normal generals and the best troops i have are longbows and soldiers.
Maybe it is an idea to do the math for this and add it to the original guide as an extra line on each attack (i got no clue how to do this though).
Btw i love the guides and use them all the time.
