: I may lose all my zerks in the process, but could
: probably lead all the trow up onto the plateau, then
: leave my archers on the lower level of that corner in
: the southeast. Trow smash my zerks to pieces, then all
: pile into that corner going after my archers, which
: plink them to death.

Ah, here's where my 'slight modification' comes into play. In your last WFLT film, you just let the (4)trow come to the south side of the corner, where your archers fired away at them. I have my zerks taunt and lead them there directly, then get their attention with the zerks/archers on the north ('safe') side so the bait zerks escape unharmed. Meanwhile, I leave 8 or 9 zerks with the archers to protect them. This technique allows me to kill the trow more quickly, which is the all-important factor here. Now, with the 8 trow(once i've killed all but one stoned trow of the original 4), I simply do the same thing, with twice as many trow. Two trow come from each corner, so hopefully they'll all arrive at different times (guided by my zerks, so they don't attack the units on the north side of the wall), which should make getting all 4 bait zerks out of danger easier. If/when this happens (I haven't tried anything with the eight trow yet, this is all hypothetical stuff based on how the other four trow act), I simply need to attack quickly enough with the archers (still tucked safely above, protected from ghols by 8 now-very-experienced berserks.) and viola! 12 dead trow. Doing all this AND getting all the ghols, though, will probably be VERY difficult, since some ghols need to be triggered by 'unprotected archers'(quoting from loathing).

Hey, it could happen:P

The big problem is the ghols.
: Some of them are certain to go after my archers, and I
: really don't know if six archers is enough to take
: them out before they start hacking away.
: Overall I'd say it's possible, but you'll probably only
: have one horrribly damaged archer left.
: Maybe I'll go try that out...
