But this just might be the limit. Cassandra is obviously suicide due to her 3 mages. Maia is possible only in comparison to the utterly impossible Cassandra; I'd still need absurdly good luck with dodging, which Leucothea isn't terribly good at. Even switching Eurybia in for Hermes is unlikely to be enough...
Melinoe was beaten at M43. Medea was beaten at M41 or M42 (I think it was M42).
Haha, guess I was wrong about switching in Eurybia for Hermes not being enough. I did however use much higher prestige, don't remember if it was M47 or M48.

Arce/Dardanus: b27.clapalong.com/?fid=N201208229755026
Great comeback in that Arce/Dardanus fight!
This time I'm certain the road ends here. Both maps have a strong mage build up next; and there is just no getting through that. But that doesn't really bother me. This account is at a permanent disadvantage anyway because several months ago I accidentally sold a yellow horn, a mistake that eternity cannot heal.
A hard fought win against a very tough mage build using mechs and M46.

Took a whole bunch of tries, obviously, but actually not a gigantic amount. Probably no more than 35-ish serious attempts.
Next NPC is Astraeus. The Tie system seems to make him impossible without Hephaestus.
Uhh... Guess the cyclops' armored chariot's defense isn't so invincible after all...

In case you're curious, here are the not-so-impressive washes...
Eurybia: +60/+68/+1
Phorcys: +48/+13/+48
Hephaestus: +15/+24/+18
Clytius: 125/83/97 (not recruited right now, and don't know the starting stats, so don't know +/+/+ how much)
Well, I think it's safe to say this is the end, at least for Athena's Wisdom. There's no getting past Syrinx, the Gatekeeper to Group 2. Maybe there still might be a way past Phaethon in Zeus' Mercy, but I kind of doubt it, considering the only recruitable fireball ballista for Poseidon is the pathetic Atlas.
