Hey, Evil_J, thanks for these, I love them (even though I don't have the 486 E needed for the bigblock on Betrayed.
However, I noted that it says wait 10 seconds and then send BHG with W3, shouldn't that be right before the final wave?

Hi Evil_J,
In your Stealing from the Rich - Veteran General Cannon Guide, you have "T3" listed in the first set of attacks, using 1R 40S. This should be listed as T2, using 100E instead (no losses), just like T1.
Cheers,
Malacai
not exactly, thats some kind of bug working in there lol i sent the 4 gens next to each other, and when inside the camp, the order of the attacks was switched, so waiting a bit should be enoug for the W1 to die before W4 enters the camp, will look for a better solution next time i run it
in your CLT guide you added a note on how C16 can be blocked with 3 vets. you say that the vet that blocks the C16 is to be placed in X12 and to ignore x14. propably you got confused. i think he should be placed in X11 and ignore X13. If i'm wrong can you explain more of this setup?
also i think i found a bit better setup for the blocking veteran, 20S 217E 13C. this has 9,5 rounds as average (7-14)
edit . all checked works fine with the setup i told you. X11 is the spot i placed the blocking veteran
ypu will make guides for 3 veterans and one major for fairytales?
thx
fixed a couple typos in SLT and CLT guides
ill make guides for all adventures with major, but i doubt 3 vets will be needed at the same time to call it a triple vet guide
Evil_J, would it be possible for you to put a V,B, or R on your general maps (so for example, you show the zoom in of X5 X6 X7 X8 on betrayed - could you put R5 R6 B7 V8 instead)? I have to scroll around a lot on my screen and I fear I'll get confused someday. R would be regular, B BHG, and V veteran. Or perhaps different colors could be used.
nop, that would have to be changed in a lot of guides, which i dont have the pacience for :)
major gen guides will probably have a new feature like that, a (V) or (M) in front of the attacks, major isnt needed for everycamp so we can attack some with vet to speed up things
but its pretty easy to figure this out, blocks are regular gens except 1 block in CLT for people with 3 vets, suicide waves on blocks are bhg, and big attacks vet...
UPDATE
- new version of BLT guide, much less bows, replaced with R, setups optimized, new super block in first sector :)
in terms of max losses, reduced 7:30h in level 5 barracks time, and reduced the cost even though added more M and S, C and LB reduced too
Thanks for the guides, Evil_J, they are invaluable
ty
UPDATE
- added major guide for SLT, using only 1 vet
Evil J - you are the BEST! PERIOD.
New super block for BLT did not hold (the recruits lost too quickly) but we will keep working at it. THANKS for all you do - I have run all the Tailors Multiple times now - but only because you were the PATHFINDER- THANK YOU BROTHER!
Did you look at how many troops it would take to kill that camp? That was a 40 second block that allows you to get to the leader for a fraction of the cost of killing the camp, and also allowing you to block the other camps.
It's sort of like a 1R block -- but it needed to be 40s instead of 20s. You could try a 'stacked 1R' block, but the odds are really high that you'll be intercepted and lose your whole army.
Finishing too quickly has it functioning as designed.
Sorry - I needed to be clearer The block on C5 (183 recruits) failed before the attackers on L1 were safely by and/or engaged. I believe we executed properly, so it may be either a timing improvement or composition of the C5 block. Of course, it is also probably an error by this writer. I will check on it next time in! Cheers!
it works perfectly :) gotta time right the first gen, and quickly send the 2nd
UPDATE
- re-done HLT guide for double vets, thanks to ZBest for some blocking ideas, reduced 17h in level 5 barracks, switched some bows to recruits as usual
this guide has been done and in use in my guild for over a week already, was just waiting to run the adventure again to improve blocking positions for L3, so here it is, less losses than BLT, but more barracks time (cavs fault)
will post version for major tonight, or tomorrow max
UPDATE
-added HLT major guide
UPDATE
- added CLT major guide
fixed some typos on:
- nords 2
- rb non cannon, both guides
im sure nords 2 can be optimized, too bad it is too expensive, so im not running it in the next times
UPDATE
-added major guides for outlaws, traitors and rb short
UPDATE
-added BLT major guide
I love those guides;
One comment; if i can add;
Camp C16 on Herioc little tailor (with major)
1st attack: 250R
2nd: attack: 115R + 1E + 154K
Total loss: 265R
If 1st attack is done by 250B this will save you 23R on the second wave:
1st attack: 250B
2nd attack: 92R + 1ES + 177K
Total loss: 250B + 92R
No offence just trying to get the best out of it :)
bows suck, too expensive and take too long in barracks, will use recruits everytime i can, cheaper and less time in barracks :)
Hey Evil_J,
Can you please reupload or check the image link @ imageshack.us for the SLT guide? Looks like the link is broken. Much appreciate if you can restore the guide.
hum it is working for me

sometimes might be a problem with imageshack, they arent exactly very reliable :)
is there a regular general guide that I can reference for the lost skull quest?
Can anyone reupload or publish new link for SLT guide plz?
Do you mean this?

Are you working on any new major gen guides? I like to see the difference in losses, especially if it makes vlt lower losses. Also on the rb guide the first camp can be 205 elites 45 recruits. It may only be 2 less r losses but you would only need to bring 8 xb instead of 96. Also c5,c6 both can be blocked while taking out wt2 saving the 118 r 32 bowman losses.
nords 2 link isn't working right now either.
cant access imageshack.us right now, theres a message in there, so that explains the broken links atm
ill have a better look at RB 270 guide next time i run it
and i dont expect to run the crappy VLT anytime soon :) when i do ill make a guide for it, and probably optimzie the losses on the 250 guide too, hopefully, not anytime soon
Great work... however Imageshack ate your Nords 2 Dual Vet Gen map.
nords 2 link replaced
Has anyone had an issue with Dark Brotherhood - 1 vet?
Used the guides and went for the big block (3 blocks -X8,X9 & X10) and 2 waves against the Leader. Everything in the right position according to the map and the X8 block gets toasted losing the 14E and 182C. But all the other generals are fine. Does this happen a lot or does the position of the X8 need to be re-evaluated?
And isn't there another leader south-east of C8 that has no attack plan?? (66Cult, 66 FireDance, 66 DarkPriest and 1 Witch)
CLT major guide
L6 fail. lose 24 K
