Good afternoon.
I have a question about the well-known map Fall of Atlantis.
I played as the Castle faction, and I didn't have any major problems with cheesy diplomacy, and no one came to attack my town.
But here (near the tower), at the beginning of the second month, Ixis appears and wipes out my hero. How can I fight against an air shield when my strategy is based on mages? If I dispel in every round, he just eliminates me with two thousand Rakshasas.
I don't have Tactics, Blindness, Berserk, or Cloning.

Is it even possible to win this battle?

Please don't call me a noob for spending a month near the castle without developing; I know that myself. Also, please don't suggest tactics for capturing confluence or leading the AI by the nose, avoiding battles. :)
I'm attaching a save file; maybe someone has the time and desire to try it themselves (just change the turn, and he will attack). You can rearrange the troops as you wish...

I tried, and after 3 attempts, I finally managed to win, although with huge losses (about 300 mages, several Titans, and Golems remained). The battle strategy is approximately as follows: in the first round, use Priest, then spread out all the Mermaids, and use the rest to eliminate the weaker units. The main attack stack consists of Nagas; use them to attack while benefiting from the Electric element. In the second round, use Mass Slow; the Nagas attack the Electric units, blocking the Mermaids. The Golems act as meat shields, absorbing the attacks from the Electric units and the Fish. The Djinns block the Storms and cast buffs on the Nagas. In subsequent rounds, simply throw Implodes at the strongest stacks and heal your mages when the opponent casts Blind.
In principle, it was possible to win with fewer losses; I played poorly and rushed, which is why the result was like this.
