Saving the Bridgefort Defenders--Advice Needed! [spoilers]

(1) do you lose out on anything if you choose to defeat Caelar's forces at Bridgefort instead of surrendering?
(2) if you choose to fight, what strategies have you used to prevent any named NPCs on your team from dying?

    To prevent npcs from dying, I attacked on my own from Bridgefort. I clogged up the bridge with writhing fogs and webs, so pretty much all the ennemies in the area were unable to move. I had Corwin target the 3 mages 1 by 1 with Arrows of biting.

    Aoe cc like Greater Malison + emotion hopelessness/web are welcome.

    If you don't attack on your own, npcs will flow in the fight area and get damaged by your spells.

    Uhhm, I'm kinda stuck...

    [Spoiler]
    Apparently Khalid was one of the victims of the magical boulder. I've done everything I can think of (talk to everybody, pickpocket the drawbridge key, etc.)

    Going to be kinda pissed if this a show-stopper. I don't have a save with Khalid still breathing.[/spoiler]

    I think you can summon him via the console, iirc it was "C:CreateCreature("khalid7")" .

    You might want to try re-spawning Khalid through the console.

    The CLUA summoning definitely works to advance this fight, but the issue with Khalid has farther reaching NON-game breaking consequences in relation to the storyline. From what I've read thus far, the issue above, and below, has to do with the fact that Khalid was not in your import party when going into SOD.

    (THIS IS A BIG SPOILER...).



    Are you sure?

    If he is killed by the boulder attack on Bridgefort, you will not see him again at the epilogue.

    OK, I got Khalid back.


    Is there anyway to complete this portion of the quest with a party solely of my own creation?

    Or, am I bound to having either Khalid, Jhaheira or Captain What's-her-face joining my party?

    @jharhed Everytime you meet someone, you can tell them to go back to camp.

    So...does anybody know a way to win the battle WITHOUT gaining two reputation points? part of the reason I decided to surrender was because winning caused me to gain 2 points, making Viconia leave my party >_<
