Put your crossbow men in carriers so they can shoot and move at the same time and recruit a boatload of Arabian swordsmen to kill the other units. From then on you need brute force to power through all the invasions from the only path that is available for invasion. Put 3-4 sergeants on the towers that wolf is attacking (he sends multiple waves of crossbow men who do a lot of damage despite your advantage). Use the bow towers and magonels to destroy siege equipment easier. Build your bread production set up and erase your farms, start iron production and automatically sell it along with stone, more weapon production etc.ħ) Once you take out the Jackal you need to beef up your defences. Move them along the edge of the map to avoid all the invasions. This time you will be able to build some weapon buildings (I recommend 3 armourers, 3 cross bow makers). I build 4-5 catapults, 25 archers to kill soldiers on his keep and a 20 Arabian swordsmen to finish him.

Then it's up to your imagination on how to take him down. But it's no time to relax yet.Ħ) You need to move your towers to the front line as much as possible in order to mess up Richard's economy.

You should have a bunch of crossbow men, archers, healers on your towers (I recommend 3 spread out equally) and squires on the ground to delay the armoured units or stop slaves from burning your buildings. (I managed to build 4 but I suspect that I could do 5 if my hand was steadier XD ) Basically the 3 things you should be concerned with at the begining is: a) stone production b) crossbow men c) various foods to be able to ask 2x taxesĥ) At this point you should have enough money and soldiers, towers to defend your castle. You are going to be getting non-stop attacks and you will need to build your economy as you defend your castle.Ĥ)Try to get as much stone quarrys as early as possible because the stone that you get will allow you to make a lot of gold early on so you can sell it and buy more crossbow men. You can't afford the wood to set up bread production for now. You are only going to be able to recruit 5 crossbow men at this point because you are strapped for cash, but you need them badly.ģ) (This should be at the top) Build your granary next to the grass and start building farms, apple orhards etc. Use the remaining stone to build an armory (buy more stone if you must) and buy armor and crossbows. If you give me some instructions I can happily send it to the admin for upload.Īs for the players who want to beat it from the ground up (normal mode) then I highly advise you to do the following:ġ) (credits to Micha) As soon as you start the game, build a big tower near your keep (and away from Richard) and a barracks behind it so you won't need to waste any more rock on stairs. I don't know how to find the save file though. I have saved it but it's up to the point where only the last enemy exists for the people who only want to just beat it to get the achievement. I'm sure other people in your position would love to have one.

Have any tips you'd like to share now you've beat it?Īlso if you could upload a saved game (if you have one) that would be awesome.
