The most lucky terrain.One beat endless!
The terrain in the battlefield are various,and they will help or disturb you.Make good use of the terrain that you can won the battle more easily.
I have seen many terrain,but no one can catch this one.With this,you can easily beat endless melee creatures,the only disadvantage is waste a long time.
Have you ever see it?Let's share it.

Random number god strikes again... 
Though while funny, it is not useful at all...
- You must have the teleport spell
- You have no idea the terrain will be like that before battle starts, so you will probably have other units out there taking hits
- You really shouldn't fight a battle that you need to resort to this sneaky tactics to win...

You are serious aren't you? In a battle you utilize any trick available to win. What's wrong, would you feel guity afterwards? The only problem is that this usually doesn't work and cannot be relied upon. I bet this screenshot is from a reloaded battle when phinex saw the terrain.

Using terrain to your advantage is cheating? Well tell that to those great leaders of the past 
If a combat field like that has been created, good for you. Another reason for warlocks' dominance: They will never get blocked ~~

I had a battlefield once even MORE funny. Can't draw it perfectly but I'll try:
-------++---
-------++---
------------
------------
------++----
-------++---
-------++---
-----++-----
---+-++-----
----C-------
(it is seen from the combat phase -- the heroes are in the right and left)
or something like this
would you imagine what would happen to the Large Creatures here?

First, let me state clearly that I find the situation funny too -- I said "Random number god strikes again " in my first reply. And yes, this cannot be replied upon, I've said so in my first reply as well.
You ask me will I feel guilty afterwards... yes, I will!  Flying creatures can't get to an enemy unit because of a few mushroom patches... that situation surely is not fair and not logical, and should be eliminated by the battle map generator. 
Fortunately it's rare, and we do have Imperial Griffins as a counter...

Yes it probably should. Where I'd feel guilty is exploiting a bug/glitch, this is less of a moral crime!

Basically a single Sprite could defeat hundreds of Large (non-Titan) creatures, it is worse than most bugs. This wouldn't be a problem if the Hero attack wasn't endless...

This game just sucks horribly in flaws and abuses and tricks.. It's like that. I know every game has them, but Heroes takes it to a new level...
And every time someone starts and tries to suggest things that could make it better, most (being used to take spectrals like that) will disagree and bash him because it's funny to take them and rush, right? not in my opinion though
Just a fact: try to see the game from a different perspective, a neutral position (i.e not "wanting" to win and doing everything for it). And yes I feel guilty when I abuse the game

Or Warlord. Warlords can use the same lightning thingie that Titans can.

But still, I suppose that even one Storm Bolt from hundreds of Warlords would kill a single sprite.

Well I thought Titan would work as an Archetype of a shooter.
Replace word non-Titan with non-shooter/caster, to understand the point.

That terrain was good but not great. Unless you have teleport, you'll have to run twice with the hunters before arriving the destination, and by then, if you are lucky enough to evoid any spectrals, your ammo cart had been smashed to pieces. If your shots and spells then are not enough to take them out it is lot's of wasted time. But since this is from the campaign, the Spectrals are of course favourite enemy ...
So did you teleport them or not?

I think everyone should know it cann't rely on.
So,my purpose is just for fun,not to make a discuss.
As elvin said,I reload when I see the terrain.
And I didn't use teleport,instead,I sent some sprite to protect the hunter.
BTW,if I didn't save time ,I will only send sprite,then I can beat the dragons without lost
