        hero.attack(enemy)

while True:
    commandTroops()
    commandHero()

```

What is wrong with my code? My friends/units are stuck once in a while. Why did that happen? Can someone tell me please. Thank!

You are missing the exit strategy…you need to get both your hero and friends to the Xs on the east side of the map.

Well, you can take out the south guys with the catapults…your friends can outrun the others; only the witch needs to be killed, actually.

I know I can just add

```python
noEnemy = not (hero.findNearestEnemy)
if noEnemy:
    #move to the exit

```

True, if not all friends escape. Think paladin (heal) and archer (range), others run like heck once the witch is down…it is possible.

I got it!!! I made some adjustments and my friends killed everything! I just used flags in the end to make sure that nobody dies by the trap.
