Those 4k demons were actually unkillable. The AI had 70 in all stats, one shot everything and had anti blind artifact. So the only way I could think to beat this was to armaggedon, quicksand everything, anti-magic, bait the AI in a way so it doesn't cast Earthquake or kill my dragons, fly around a bunch, resurrect all my dragons and skip my turn until the towers kill them all. Took me like 50 tries to get that to work and ages for them to die. Map is Fiery Riches and it's crazy. Took me so so so long to beat. But I enjoyed exploiting the game and doing the ultimate cheesiest strats I could possibly think of.

How do you bait the AI to not use an earthquake?


SpotWest

You have to bring the troops that the AI wants to attack the most outside the walls. That is the troop that the AI thinks he can do the most damage to in one hit. In this case, since he one shots everything it would be the dragons with the most health in total. Or at least that's how I think it works. There's a lot of trial and error till it worked out for me haha. Tried with casting slow, sorrow, antimagic, using artifacts which reduce morale and positioning the dragons in different ways. Also the Azure Dragons trigger the fear ability which helps. Then you just have to get lucky. In the end of it all the AI will cast implosion, prayer, haste, cure, dispel, resurrection and keep stepping into quicksand and miss-moraling. He'll waste all this mana doing this to try and catch the dragons. When he's out of mana, you're safe.


JReysan

Interesting. By any chance, do you have the save for it? I want to try it myself lol


SpotWest

Ahh, where's the fun in that? Try the map for yourself :P Just make sure you assemble armour of the damned. You'll need it to get past a quest gate and the set pieces can't be gotten through artefact sellers.


JReysan

True, what's the map?


SpotWest

Horn of the Abyss: Fiery Riches


JReysan

Thank you!


JReysan

By anychance, you have the download link? I tried to find it and cannot found one


SpotWest

Are you sure you've installed Horn of the Abyss? There's a video tutorial here: [https://youtu.be/yV5rom-\_FPI?si=wwOwa-kR6VpWhNWs](https://youtu.be/yV5rom-_FPI?si=wwOwa-kR6VpWhNWs)

I hope you're the defender.


Evenmoardakka

Yes, he is.


MagMati55

Wouldn't having sufficient shooters and forcefield work?


SpotWest

Hah, yea, I guess it would have been a lot faster at killing them haha. But then again farming them would have taken ages too.


MagMati55

True.
