More like a case of "the best defence is an offence".

In Nevergrim I'd managed to destroy the enemy heart within the first
10 minutes of play as a result of my hellhounds running wild across
the fence.
I just kept healing them while they take on those lvl 1 creatures that
they encounter in the enemy dungeon.

That tactic reminds me of WC2 modem-2-modem play tactics.
Hit the opponent early in the game.......heh
