MadyNora: There is a trick that allows you to get good equipment at the beginning of the game, wich will surely help with all the baddies. It involves the NWC dungeon.
(the equipment you will get is "low level", but it will help a LOT at the beginning.)
First, you need to give the letter to the man in the tavern, and to the man in Castle Ironfist to get cash.
Then click on the left wall of the bank in New Sorpigal: you get a hidden fly scroll.
Hire a gate master. (costs 2000, if you save-reload the game the job of NPCs will change, keep on trying until you find a gate master)
Fly onto the northern roof of Buccaneer's Lair in New Sorpigal, then turn south (be careful: the dragon tower will shoot fireballs at you, so be very careful when fying).
Switch to turn based (this is EXTERMELY important. If you dont do that, you will die in 1 second.)
Press space, and you find yourself teleported to Dragonsand.
Cancel turn based, and RUN into the left side of the altar in front of you.
Switch to turn based again, touch the altar with every character, then turn around, and click on the wall: you arrive in the NWC dungeon.
Loot it, than use the gate master to get back to town. Don't use the door, it takes you to the dragons. (The squares on the top of the desks are chests too)
I always start MM6 doing this, it gives a nice starting equipment+stats from the altar. With this, the beginning area of the game is easily manageable :)
Yeah - but NWC room is considered cheating :-) (the equipment you will get is "low level", but it will help a LOT at the beginning.)

Just use my technique above - it still 'legit'. :-)
Seriously, I'm playing it right now. I'm already touch the dragonsand altar and drink the potion only in the second month. and the mission that require fighting I did mostly in new scorpigal (goblin, sherry, etc) - and that at the level 13 (since I did the 2 promotion quest first (talk to guy in bar + stable).
