For most games I've played, battles are usually won based on who has the most stats. Not so for this one... I just killed Raedric. The first time, I just kamikazed Raedric, to see what would happen. I got annihilated - barely a scratch on their side. Then, I set up the battle carefully, using everything I could against the group-- and I annihilated them - barely a scratch on my side. That's pretty amazing for this to be possible, haha.
