This is not a hard fight at all. I've played this one two times now, one try, clean victory. The problem most people might be having is that the fight is unfavorable to certain groups, but me and a friend had a setup with 2 mages, 1 archer, 1 melee 2 handed and it was a breeze honestly. Alexander dead on 2 turn along with most of the enemies as well, then it's just cleaning up the rest and dealing with the worm later. Seriously, I think just a decently built mage coupled with a 2 handed warrior can make this fight too easy to be honest. The game is heavily unbalanced at the moment in favor of players if you know how to build, unfortunately
