"Your Party Has Been Defeated" Oh no they have NOT!!!

WTF is going on here? I'm at the fight with the Void Dragon and all my party are at about 90% health so why is it game over with that inane message? Is it because Astarte (whom I cannot control) wanders right into danger and gets zapped? Game over before I can even get a decent spell cast

Try feather dropping her to safety?

"Invaild target".

Just put your characters infront of her so they get targeted instead

Casting invisibility on her works too.

Does this mean that if the leader of the group dies the game is lost? Who is the leader then?

That's strange, looks like a bug.

The party is supposed to protect Astarte throughout the fight, if she dies its game over. Any of your four character can die but the game continue. One big gripe is that Astarte always moved into a psition where she get clobber, and my party had no control on her movement and can't teleport her, alternative was to shield her with fire or earth shield. Guess she is too stupid to avoid danger

When you select another character to lead the party and change your formation is it still the first character how needs to survive?

Generally speaking, through out the game, if both of your main heroes die, then it's game over. Even if the companions are still alive!

You didn't choose well your thread, you problem has no link with OP.

So yeah game over only if both main characters are dead. Plus few cases where you need protect a NPC but I don't remember any case but case OP mentions.
