Now for the hard part where you must retreat as each battle is finishing.

Attack "Target A" and Camp B2 will intercept
Trg A>>b2....12 R 58 C 130 LB; lose 4-12 R, 0-1 C ---vs--- 50 Hk 50 Vk (6 R 1 S 58 C 135 A)
* * * * * RETREAT right after the battle. In order to retreat, you must activate the camp after you have won the battle and THEN click retreat before you attack the next target. There is limited time to do this correctly. If you have not attempted this before, I recommend you send 200 R on this mission in order to practice without losing 130 LB and 58 C!

Attack "Target A" and Camp bL1 will intercept
Trg A>>bL1....53 Soldiers 50 C 97 LB; lose 44-52 S ---vs--- 10 JoW 50 Vk 100 Hk (35 S 50 C 115 A)

with using 72 xbows this was my loss

613r
120s
69m

for 27.5k xp. not to bad!!!!!

Just a misprint I'm sure however, when you attack camp dL1 you have about to "target B" and dL1 will intercept. It needs to be changed to "target C" Thanks! great guide! I followed every step it was perfect!

Should change the troops typically needed to show the 170 LB needed for this attack.

I used 110 crossbows. Final troop losses were:

657 R
75 M
66 S

Picked up 300g, 600 steel swords and 700 granite, so it was well worth it. More crossbows would lower loses even further - I think 150ish would be the optimal amount. I believe camp a2 can be a 0-loss attack if you're able to send 20R, 30C, 4S 146Xb. Camp b2 can be 0-loss with 5R, 65C, 130Xb. I actually had 0-losses on camp c1 with 95C, 105Xb, but that was an accidental config, and it can lose crossbows. I meant to send 110C, 5S, 85Xb which would guarantee 0-losses.

So it's worth buying Victor to get the crossbow drops and then do Nords repeatedly. I lost just under 800 troops, picked up 27k in experience and got nice loot as well.

Where is the garrison configuration for c1 above?

I wasn't able to retreat in time once, but I don't think I defeated cL1 after taking out C1. Not sure on this.

don't forget to retreat, you should loose 0 troops

On the 250 XB guide, Use the bL1 troops for B2, that will take out both camps with no problems.

Is this now nerfed with the new pathfinding changes?

Now that the paths have changed you have to take out all the camps leading up to the leader in sector 1. Also there is a wolf trap that is not marked on this map so beware. For the 1st camp you face in sector 1 i went with 25M 175XB and took 20-25M losses

This map is confusing. For the first few camps, you show black arrows to a path to avoid the first camp, but I can't position my garrisons so that the generals take that path. Can you explain how to avoid the camps you've X'd out, cuz I can't seem to be able to do it. Thanks.

Thats because the pathing has changed so in sector 1 you have to fight your way to the leader and also beware there is a wolf camp in sector 1 not shown in the guide

Oh. So this is another worthless outdated guide. They really need to pull all this junk off the forum.

on camp e1e jus send 1R and 199XB's and you will lose 0-1R, this guide use to be one of the best but just use the following battle simulator to tweak the numbers and you will have about 100 less losses. Also in sector 1 you have to take out the camps leading to the leader and be aware of the trap of wolves in the forrest http://settlersonlinesimulator.com/d...us/#sim-result
