naybe i should have said that im in a sp, and i am full of gems max of research ecc..
the only problem is a wyrm locked in his fortress.
i tried to kill it with spells but i wasnt able so im tryng a new tattic.
i was thinking also to an assasin with plenty of fear whre i can get it? other than horror helmet,the flyng armor and the f/d shield there is something else that gives fear?

If you've reduced your opponent to trapping him in his castle, and the force he has inside is painfully difficult to fight, you might want to consider just "preaching him out". Build a bunch of temples around the province, send your prophet, several strong priests, and your pretender to sit outside, and wait for dominion to kill him.

Against a wyrm, I find they're not too difficult to kill. You need a large number of medium (size-2) troops with good morale and swords to surround him and hack him to bits. (Swords ensure enough damage to overcome his regen) Back them up with some L2 Priests casting Sermon of Courage so that they don't retreat from boredom too early.

Throw in a Lizard Shaman to cast Curse. Afflictions can be very, very bad for melee monsters.

i know that preaching he out is the best way, but is personal:that damned wyrm in one battle did 5 affliction to my poor old olm nd so im just looking for revenge.
las time i was able to kill it with a wished arena battle thanks to kng of fire elemental(the ethereal one) but it killed my elemental with medallion of vengeange.
now i will try with a 40 prot 22 mr king of earth and if i fail again i will kill with a fear assasination

Fear will be no use against a pretender - they never break.

Do we know that for sure?

Someone tell my gods that then!

I have seen plenty of gods leg it! Usually I am pretty happy they run away as well, otherwise they would have died.

Yeah, I use naked SC Gods quite a bit, and they do a good job of running away.

I think Llamabeast might be confusing that with the fact that immortals in positive dominion are not suppose to retreat.
