just use the EU wiki, way better losses.
my guide wasn't all that great.
Being one to mostly read and not post...I have to tell ya'll...this guide really does work! Starting from landing zone, really easy to follow even without photos it's just that easy. :-)
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing!

Works great - ran it twice already! Fat EXP, just what's needed for new LvL cap!
For sectors 4 & 5, when you say "Camp 1&2 -> 40M, 180XB", does that mean send at camp 2 and it wipes out camp one on the way?
Do sector 5: 53M 1E 216XB - MG. Attack leader.
Then you're down to 6 attacks.
ill try this when the server returns
tyvm Wardog-
I will review it and try to reduce it to 5 or 6 attacks.
EDIT: Simulator says i lose everything when it gets to the leader with your attack wardog, though it does point out that I should not need soldiers. I will still improve it.
I ran 2 quick Nords using the 6 attack plan. Here are my results.
Required units: 100-R, 78-B, 110-M, 40-C, 5-LB, 216-XB, 1-E
Average losses: 92-R, 39-B, 102-M
Sector 1 – MMA Send straight at the leader
30R, 25M, 5LB, 160XB (Losses 30R, 6M) (Losses 23R)
Note: All camps have comparable losses except 2nd attack, trap 150 Gray Wolf, depending on rng damage is the difference between the above loss difference.
Sector 2 - MMA Attack sector 3 leader, retreat after sector 2 leader is dead
59B, 1LB, 160XB (Losses 39B) (Losses 39B)
Sector 3 – MMA Place to far right so attacking leader only hits leader + 1 beside it
20R, 40C, 19B, 1LB, 140XB (Losses 16R) (Losses 14R)
Sector 4: (2 attacks)
MMA
Camp 1&2 -> 40M, 180XB (Losses 29M) (Losses 31M)
Major General
Leader Camp-> 50R, 25M, 195XB (Losses 50R, 21M) (Losses 50R, 21M)
Sector 5: Major General. Attack leader
53M, 1E, 216XB (Losses 51M) (Losses 51M)
Losses are pretty close to the wiki guide. The greatest strength of this guide seems to be a much faster run.
{Note: This was done before Chunk edited his original post using the original numbers. The numbers show a slight balancing might lead to a better loss ratio}
In 5 attacks :). I made it some months ago but it is nice :)

And today i have modified it to make it faster (MMA, 270, MMA , 270, 270)
http://settlersonlinemaps.com/aventu...732&LangCode=2
or (MMA, 270, MMA , 270, 250)
http://settlersonlinemaps.com/aventu...3&LangCode=2#1
Sector 5: Major General. Attack leader
53M, 1E, 216XB (Losses 51M) (Losses 51M)
This attack leads to the following possible maximum LOSSES:
53M, 1E, 216XB (final camp still alive)
So no, it does not work.
Did you get your numbers using a sim or did you test it?
Mine were done testing the adventure.
I've run it 3 times now with similar results of 51M loss.
that may be the average, I plan for the worst possible outcome. Yes it is a small chance, but if your troops do poorly you can lose all of them.
1,2,3,4,5 (Lead) - 32R, 4S, 1ES, 183XB
6,7,8 (Lead) - 18M, 1ES, 201XB
9,10 (Lead) - 14R, 1ES, 39C, 166XB
11,12 - 10R, 3M, 1ES, 256XB
13 (Lead) - 93R, 4M, 1ES, 172XB
14,15 (Lead) - 37M, 11S, 1EX, 221XB
Max loss - 149R, 62M, 15S
Just try it.;-)Quote:

I agree, the 53/1/216 attack works great. Have been using those numbers for a long, long time.
chunk you forget that Nords leaders have AoI (area of influence) so the last attack only gets intercepted once then goes to leader. sec 3 is the same it shows 2 intercepts but once you kill that first camp the leader's AoI gets the gen to attack
Nords in 4 attacks courtesy of a german guide:
40M 180XB (MMA) attack leader 2
20R 30C 170XB (MMA) attack leader 3
60M 210XB (MG) attack leader 4
53M 1E 216XB (MG) attack leader 5 (or 84M 1E 165XB vet)
Cant get much simpler than that... MMA starts from landing zone 1, left side. Haven't tried simming a worthwhile attack from landing zone 2.
If sending to leader 2, directly, my guess would be that S would be needed instead of M...Quote:

Thanks for sharing, Blamuut! Tried 5x so far, on first attack lost 3 crossbows (only once) so now send 35M 5S 180XB to attack Leader2. 4 attacks - 2 preloaded MMA and 2 preloaded MG's and 4 attacks, 3 staging areas, all save me helluva lot of time!
wow nice
Can you please give me the camp troop # so i can match them up? i have no idea which is 'leader 2' and so on... (some of us don't live and breathe adventures lol)Quote:

thanks for the guide! :)
my interpretation:
total troops to send
= 20 r
= 153 m
= 30c
= 5 s
= 350 xb (extra to allow 2nd attack before 1st mma returns to garrison)
= 1 e
2 MMA , 1 Major (2 if you have :))

53M 1E 216XB (MG) - Send on Leader 5 - 1 intercept (loss 50m)
first attack can be done from landing zone. tbh I have sat there and sent all from landing zone, takes a little longer until you get the timing right, but can be done without moving.
Interesting Troll-Phu... i had assumed if i did the 1st attack from lz that i would have 3 more intercepts. thanks
Done Nords in 4 attacks 3 times.
Lost 11-14 XB. The German server must have tougher XBs.
I've done it many times, and have not lost any xbows. I use the troops set out in the 4 atk guide, don't tweek it any, and has worked just fine.

I do think, that one would loose troops like XB, based on the original post / version with 4 attacks
