Kingdom Rush Alliance Impossible Hero Challenge - 11. Canyon Plateau Iron

We have a sad slight regression with iron mode this time, falling back into making the build rather too easy to figure out.  The only trouble I had in getting this one down was figuring out that two Paladins are needed per choke point, otherwise things get out of hand at the very end of the map.  Other than that things are pretty straightforward - fully upgrade the provided Stargazers so they can deal with the high armor Bound Nightmares and Abominations, then provide strong choke points that will stall them long enough for the Stargazers to deal with them.  Three Ballistas built around the central section can then take care of the Void Blinkers and Tamed Stalkers, as well as assisting the choke points when possible thanks to their generous range.  Easy-peasy.

Impressions

As with last time, Raelyn and Anya's performances just fell a little short of 'A'-worthy, but other than that this is largely a straightforward map for the rest of the heroes.  Magic damage helps out enormously on this map, so Nyru and Therien add some nice unadorned 'A's to their GPAs, while the usual suspects bring in 'A+'s and everyone else gets 'A-'s.
