CyPhErIoN: To avoid Einar running through the mountains like an overdose dumbass is keeping your avatar behind the troops. Use the rest of your heroes upfront to protect the archers.
Einar is attached with an auto follow command to your avatar. You can only get him moving when you move.
Luned: I just ended up letting him run off and get beaten down to 1 hit point by the baddies. The other guys in his squad will die, but the Sergeant's apparently immortal and will eventually crawl his way back to your position. Heal him up and let him go on his merry way again, while you worry about your own troops. ;) Einar is attached with an auto follow command to your avatar. You can only get him moving when you move.
Side note: I actually couldn't get Einar's strategy to work in Leafshade, the armies pured out of the canyon way before I could get archers up on the heights. I used a worker squad at the back of my pack to construct White Hands at strategic points along the way. We'd attack, then lead the pack of nasties back to our "safe zone" around the White Hand, where we proceeded to take them out. This method minimized troop losses along the route.
correct , i've never put archers on top of it , they get burned down easy by the troops.
i used my avatar to demolish the towers and run back to get healed.
It's indeed a level you can't rush through.
***POSSIBLE SPOILER****
Wait untill the rift where that b*tch talia or thelia will run of alone. the moment you'll need her the most she'll be at hit point and you knwo what that means :)
