any of u guys/girl can help me in The Lost General senario
i play version 1.0.2
play this map for 20 times already and still i cant win it
I have this on my arsenal:
2 knight
3 gryphon master
4 Merman Warrior
3 Elvish Sharpshooter
3 Elvish Outrider
2 Arch Mage
2 Elvish Champion
2 Elvish Marshal
and sadly to say i only have 300+ gold fo this senario...
I cant seem to win this senario ... the orc can deal 10 to 12 damage to my unit cos of chaotic stat on orc, since cave consider as night all the time . All my unit have low defence, around 20%. Most orc lvl up when 1 of them able to kill my veteran unit! Not including undead from below! but at lis the undead will come out until and only if i crumble the wall so as long i keep my distance the undead will not come out...

Don't recall so many of your veteran elf units. They're terrible underground.
Recruit a horde of new dwarvish units. Get a whole bunch of fighters and thunderstickers.
With an army of level ones, you can sacrifice a few of them and not worry about needing to save and load much either.

Usually the only recalls I make for this level are healers. The big gap on your recall list: no white mages, no Druids or Shydes. If I were you I'd go back a few levels and focus on leveling up some healers.
Working with what you've got: I'd say recall one Arch Mage (ideally a Quick one) for a bit of emergency artillery, and spend the rest of your money on L1 dwarves. Use Konrad's leadership (hopefully he's L3 by now) to toughen them up; as soon as they get injured, retreat them to a village to heal and replace them with a fresh unit. Don't let Konrad or the Mage get any kills - you really need levelled Dwarves and plenty of 'em.
Thunderers are effective against Trolls, and leadership can make them very powerful. Dwarf Fighters' hammer attack is better against undead.

Wrong They come out eventually anyway.NeoGuyver wrote:the undead will come out until and only if i crumble the wall so as long i keep my distance the undead will not come out...
Take note that skeletons are vulnerable to impact attacks, and dwarvish fighters are armed with hammers.
This is a tactic that worked for me. I charged about six dwarves (4 Fighters, 2 Thunderers) and a healer straight to the crumbling wall. I then grouped them around the entrance of the two corridors that open up. The undead came out two at a time. This makes them very easy to kill. By the end of the level those six dwarves had leveled into 2 Thungerguards, 3 Steelclads and 1 Lord.
Meanwhile I had a second group of mostly dwarves who dealt with the orcs. That was quite a fight, but by no means impossible.
As some people have already said, the key to this level is to recruit mostly dwarves. Also, focus on leveling them up. You will really need high-level dwarves in the next few levels.

Well, I recall always a shyde (so I make sure, that I have at least one shyde, before entering that scenario), send it to the lake to capture villages. Rest of gold is used for dwarfes, lots of them. When the gold starts to come in, I recall white mages (at least two), some 1 level mages and two or three dwarfes and send them down to the 'guest quarters'. As soon as the orc leader is as good as dead, I start sending some of the dwarfes to the lake, so when the orc leader is killed and the undead set free, some dwarfes are ready to kill them. Make them slow with the shyde, kill them with the dwarf. As soon, as the mages on the other side are ready and Konrad down there, I open the wall. From that point it takes roughly five to seven turns to kill the general. Usually I am able to level at least two dwarfes, and sometimes some mages.

Wrong. The undeads come out at turn 20, regardless of the orcs.santi wrote:BTW, finish off the orcs/trolls first, then deal with the undead.(the earth crumbles by itself after you've finished with the orcs)

undeads come out at turn 20 or earlier if you move on certain hexes, which are marked by some stones.TheChosenOne wrote:Wrong.

First read, then think. Read again, think again. And then post!
