I modified the first scenario of EI to force the AI to recruit Dark Adepts only, and tried to beat the scenario on hardest difficulty. What's the best strategy for the modified scenario?
My replay is here, so you can try the scenario by loading the replay...
Took three tries but beat this on hard (nightmare) level! Posting here because in neither approaches in the strategy guide worked for me.
First, I tried defending the initial keep from green and blue trolls by keeping them at the chokepoint and waiting out the battle between white and orange...
I'm playing Son of the Black Eye on medium difficulty, and am stumped by the Back Home scenario.
There are 4 enemy leaders: 3 Human General and an Elvish Champion. On my side, there's Kapoue, there's Gruu with his trolls, and two idiot Horde leaders, Flar'tar and Al'brock (Orcish Warlords)
Hello all! I am new to the multiplayer side of the game and I have only had real success with the Walking Corps level 0 unit in multiplayer. I would like some tips and strategies to hone my use of Walking Corpses and make effective use of the bats and goblins. First I would like to define the...
Hello to everyone, lately I have been trying to learn how to play knalgans, although I have been struggling to perform well.
The one thing I find myself struggling the most with is organizing a proper defense, which is more often than not what I'll have to fall back into against most matchups...
I just finished the HTTT campeign and towards the end i noticed that the strategic deph was realy lacking.Given how carry over gold works its usualy not a good idea to go for mapcontrol because the turns you spent doing that are turns you lose for the early finish bonus.
The strat for most later...
I want to proceed to a very specific situation, but before i do that i was wondering what units are recommended when it is Elves vs. Northerners and the map has not much forest. The reason i ask is because i am wondering (generically) if anyone thinks the Elves can beet the Northerners in a...
Hi, so I ended up with only 100 Gold to do this scenario. I've tried sending Ghosts to the northwest keep as suggested but I don't have high level ghosts, and hence the gryphons overwhelm me easily, even when I use my very experienced recalled necromancers etc etc
Im just wondering how can you beat this level. Im usually a pretty good at the strategy and have beaten the other campaigns but cannot get past this level. It seems as though by the time you can mount an attack the undead are on you with the Orcs and they are so large a force i cant reach any of...
I'm playing Dead Water on medium difficulty. I've managed to kill Mal-Daveth, who leaves behind a Vampire Bat and Ring of Strength: +3 HP and +1 damage/attack.
The question is: Who should get the ring?
Options:
Kai Krellis : Probably not, since he's nearly L2 already and hopefully should not...
I'm playing Son of the Black Eye on Medium difficulty. Playing The Silent Forest, I recruited and recalled more than my villages could support - and I needed those troops too, I would say - so I made it to Shan Taum the Smug with the minimum initial gold. I went for a combination of recruitment and...
Hello there, long time Wesnoth player here, but I never, ever got good at the game. I'm replaying Heir to the Throne, and I'm on Normal difficulty. I'm very bothered by missing out on any loyal units, and especially having any loyal units die on me, yet all of the Merfolk rescued in this scenario...
Hello.
I choose collection of 10 best multiplayer ladder replays from around 400 replays that mostly alredy good enough. (Some of them pretty old)
There is no voice comments, but it is still very interesting to look on games of best ladder players.
This is basically in reply to two threads, on the forums here asking about zoom levels being restored.
Are you tired of having to press '+' a specific number of times after loading a game? Well, this doesn't save the state, but it does do the next best thing. On the suggestion of Strelock on...
So, I stole was inspired by Crimson_Conure's idea on the Wesnoth discord of making Wesnoth strategy puzzles, sort of like the tactical puzzles you see in chess. Even though Wesnoth is RNG based, there are still tons of situations where there's a best move/sequence of moves.
Playing normal, the first campaign, I found myself being able to win fast but also being able to milk XP (since the undead adversary was churning 1 unit a turn and sending them alone).
Thus, in such a situation, what would you prefer? :)
I managed to beat Under the Burning Suns without losing a unit. :O
For those who are curious, you can look at the replays below. Admittedly I played some of these while very sleepy so there might be some turns where the play is a bit erratic/doesn't make sense, but whatever. :whistle:
In The Sceptre of Fire official campaign, the main protagonist leader is Rugnur - initially an L1 Dwarvish Fighter. Now, in this campaign you have access to the Runesmith line of advancements, so whenever a Fighter levels, you need to choose between making it a Steelclad or a Runesmith. On both...
I spent about 10 hours trying to beat this scenario (on hard), before resorting to cheese tactics... building loads of cav and attacking the orc stronghold immediately and then sending the survivors around the north west side to kill the necromancer while I had my hero running away with a couple...
What I see a lot in multiplayer are people who buy regeneration/feeding before the first wave comes out. I argue that this is stupid for the following reasons:
The general aim is to finish waves quickly, for a good reward. The way to do that is to kill quickly. Quick kills are achieved by doing...
Hi, this my guide to ANL. There are a few bugs in this game that annoy me to no end because they're always tripped by newbies and i hope this guide will cut down on those (and maybe get the bugs fixed by someone who can). If you're new to ANL you can safely preserve the learning process by limiting...
I decided to write my own Isar guide for people to improve their skill on the map. The one made by ElderofZion can be read here: ( I will try not to repeat him so I give you the link for more information. :eng:
I will use the same structure as Elder, but I will introduce some important...
This is triggered by someone saying that one of the more troublesome match-ups is Knalgan vs Loyalists. Which one is considered to be in better position on standard maps and why? Any tips for either race? I've read the general how to play guides of both but these are super generic. It basically...
At hard difficulty, can Heir to the Throne be won without scenario restarts? If you lose a scenario, it's permadeath: you go back to the beginning—not of the scenario—but of the campaign. That is the challenge.
Four years since my first attempt, I have done it.
I have just downloaded the An Innocent Man campaign (Makpeace McEvoy) from the Add-on Server.
I'm now on the 3rd (or 2nd) scenario of this campaign, called The Island . Is there a good hint about how do complete this scenario?... I have searched the whole Island, but there is no way...
Killing the orcish leader in Httt: Blackwater Port on Hard gives a special bonus, but I was never able to get it. The orcs recruit way too many units to defeat them on time while keeping Delfador and Konrad safe. Watching some of the replays available in the forum, I required a combination of...
I decided to play Legend of Wesmere coop with some friends of mine, none of us ever played this campaign before, so Landar looked cool and I decided to choose him, after a [censored] ton of battles, we got that girl I forgot the name, something with Chidil? Dunno, but Kalenz and her got a lot of cool...
