So I restarted this from the beginning so the heroes could go through the Ice and river again. The zombies of Grinch and Grivois did no damage, however

Before moving on I'd like to express my great displeasure in the Path of Confrication. No problem with the Wall of Death, that was very clever, my issue is in the Secret Door here. It would cost at least 3 actions to get through this path, which is not enough time for 1 hero.
The idea popped into my head that the Wizard could really used Veil of Mist as a benefit here, running through the 2 zombies and out the door, leaving them to get crushed... but since it's a secret door, this cannot be...
Anyhow the

Ghushlag's next turn was to cast Orc Berserker, but even then

The heroes haven't been able to get an attack on Ghushlag, as all the other orcs took attack positions.
Eventually the
