As much as I agree that all the fighting in BaK was fun, I wouldn't actually call it that hard and strategic, even the fights in the Northlands weren't that tough, if you had one, absolutely gamebreaking spell, and that spell was skin of the dragon, because with that, you could just basically stand out there, use the spell on all party members, and while not using it, just rest till your hp is back up or run away from enemies.
The HARDEST chapters, were easily the ones with Patrus, because of his lightning speed >_>
And well, you *could* simply rest between fights, but given the need for rations, and the fact that on longer trips in unknown places they would be hard to come by (Dimwood and the wasteland come to mind) it wasn't really that simple. Also, I always kind of wondered, why the concept of 'rations' hasn't become more popular in rpgs.
