I also bought Zehir a shield for 25 and a double-bladed axe for 15. +4 defense and attack respectively. Dark spells were also dispelled; the same paladins dispelled the squires, but it unexpectedly worked, otherwise, it would never have worked. 779 paladins and 85 archmages, 1836 squires, 860 archers, 100 explorers, it was a horror in general. I actually had 3k archers; I converted all the peasants, and about 650 travelers, 100 archmages and 200 paladins, 350 griffins, the squires killed them with one hit. This was the only mission where I had to accumulate an army for so long; before that, quick completion always helped, but it didn't work here.
Evro, maybe you have a pirated copy? Then everything falls into place...
