Basic way to defeat High Desert Mage
======================================================================

High Desert Mage can be very tricky to beat with his Labyrinth Wall
because he equips it to make it's defense stronger. If the field is
Wasteland, then the wall would be much stronger. Use Twin-headed Thunder
Dragons and Meteor B. Dragons.
