Starfire, Thank you for this complete rundown. I just got Victor yesterday and didn't know anything about it. Now I do and look forward to using your guide to lead me through it as soon as I rebuild my troops. Thank you.

[Hobknocker]

I had a hard time reading & deciphering the new map due to the colors so I made this one. The guide is awesome, thank you so much! My labels map to Starfire's.

[Starfire512]

Yes, I had to reduce the image Resolution a great deal to make it work, but I now have a high resolution link below the above picture.

[Hobknocker]

I got to camp g2 and didn't have the troops for either suggested configuration.

g2…200S *w2* 60 S, 130 C, 10 LB; Lose 36-48 R 200 S ---vs--- 1 Skunk, 100 Ranger, 80 RN
---- alternative 130 C *w2* 50 R, 48 S 102 LB; Lose 50 R 35-48 S 130 C

On a whim, I put 120S, 80C into the simulator and it said I'd win 2 out of 3 times, so I thought I'd give it a try. I didn't calculate out the resources/time/etc., involved if I lost those 200 troops as compared to the suggested ones, but just in thinking about it, I figured I'd be losing 200 Soldiers under the first configuration, and I make horses way faster than steel swords, so I went with it. I won, only losing 56 Soldiers and no Cavalry. By the 2nd round all the Rangers were dead, so even if I'd lost, I'd only have some Roughnecks and Skunk to deal with.

Important to remember I could have lost it all, but I'm extremely happy with that outcome.

I really suggest you all to gather 100 crossbowman before to start. This way you will save hundreds of troops! And you get to kill metal tooth in 2 waves with only 40C and 110 soldiers. 1st wave: 40 Cavs, 2nd wave: 80Crossbowmans and 120 soldiers (against metal tooth).

Ya, I need to make guides that assume crossbows or no crossbows. I'm think how best to do that and I'm not happy with the fancier pictures either.

[StepMonster]

Starfire, first let me say excellent guide and thank you. Second for leader fl1 or L6 (1 Metal Tooth, 40 Dog, 155 RN) in Zone 6 you can do this combination if you have Crossbowman. Wave 1 40 cav, clears the dogs, Wave 2 110 soldiers and 90 Crossbowmen. You loose about 103-107 soldiers. Total losses for me 40 cav 103 soldiers.
