1. There might be Queen Ants in Trynton (although i don't remember seeing one there, i even encountered them at arnika road). The large weed group indicates that its indeed Trynton.

2. It seems that you are very unlucky with the placed monsters. Since it's your first game, i might be best to retreat to arnika-trynton road, rest one or two days (3-6 rest periods), and come back. Then the monsters are usually replaced.

3. If you play with a walkthrough and maps, you could try to reach the entry to the tree (at least if you have x-ray). Try to run toward it, while avoiding the monsters. In fight, run each round. When you approach Chief Gari, the monsters will usually reatreat (if not, the chief and the Trynnies will help you). This won't work if you don't know where to run to.

4. The advice with the missile shield is important. Together with armorplate and magic screen. You need them in those fights. Thats why you should have a mage and a priest, or a bishop, in your first party. When a hybrid learns this spell (and is able to cast it at a decent level), its often too late.

5. Eventualy you can set the difficulty to easy for this fight (assuming you play normal), and set it back afterwards. The monsters will hit you less often in this setting, and you'll hit better, but against that enemies it probably doesn't help.

6. You could post your party. Then we might be able to give more detailed advice.
