The Opening Match- Soccer Event Adventure Guide

[RecklessRue]

The Opening Match

First, let me say that this is just a guide. Tweak it any which way you'd like. I haven't been playing as long as some others, and I've never written a guide before. However, I know I was looking for some help, others were looking for help, and there was no guide available in English for those without the Veteran General.

Therefore, this guide is for those with no veteran general and in the 26-35 level range.
For those level 36 and above, you can use these numbers as a starting guide as plug-in numbers with the combat simulator at:
http://settlersonlinesimulator.com/d...fsimulator/us/
Open the adventure pull down menu on the right and choose EM-Adventure. (Thanks bygmak).

The "camp" numbers correspond with this map:




R= Recruits
C= Calvary
LB= Long Bows

1) 50 midfielders, 50 defenders: 15R/185C (losses- roughly 9 recruits)
2) 100 forwards: 200R (losses- roughly 20 recruits)
3) 60 midfielders, 40 defenders: 15R/185C (losses- roughly 7 recruits)
4) 100 forwards: 200R (losses- roughly 20 recruits)
5) 80 midfielders, 20 defenders: 15R/185C (losses- roughly 0 recruits)
6) 80 midfielders, 20 defenders: 15R/185C (losses- roughly 0 recruits)
7) 20 forwards, 100 defenders: 200R (losses- roughly 50-60 recruits)
8) 120 defenders: 55R/95C/50LB *OR 60R/140C* (losses- roughly 50 recruits, *60 with 2nd method*)
9) 120 defenders: 55R/95C/50LB *OR 60R/140C* (losses- roughly 50 recruits, *60 with 2nd method*)
10) 20 forwards, 100 defenders: 200R (losses- roughly 50-60 recruits)

Goalie, 40 defenders, and 40 midfielders:
Option One-
120R/30C/50LB (losses- roughly 40 recruits)
Option Two-
50R/90C/60LB (losses- roughly 35 recruits)
You can vary the recruit/calvary/longbow combination quite a bit with minimum losses.

Other options (thanks for the input!):
IWylByteU used only one wave of 100R/20S/30C/50LB and lost 44R.
Brae used 200R and lost 55R.


Hope this has helped some! Any problems or suggestions, feel free to comment. If you find a better means of taking out these guys, by all means, post it.

Match Two



1) 30 forwards, 60 defenders: 200R (losses- roughly 37 recruits)
2) 50 forwards, 40 defenders: 200R (losses- roughly 28 recruits)
3) 40 midfielders, 60 defenders: 18R/182C (losses- roughly 15 recruits)
4) 50 forwards: 200R (losses- roughly 10 recruits)
5) 20 forwards, 40 midfielders, 40 defenders: 200R (losses- roughly 58 recruits)
6) 20 forwards, 40 midfielders, 40 defenders: 200R (losses- roughly 58 recruits)
7) 80 forwards, 20 defenders: 200R (losses- roughly 25 recruits)
8) 30 midfielders, 60 defenders: 15R/185C (losses- roughly 12 recruits)
9) 30 midfielders, 60 defenders: 15R/185C (losses- roughly 12 recruits)
10) 80 forwards, 20 defenders: 200R (losses- roughly 25 recruits)

Goalie, 40 midfielders, 30 defenders:
See the first match for other input as it's basically the same fight!

Match 3

At this point, you should see a pattern forming and therefore the next matches are a breeze.
Just remember the following:
When you see forwards (the equivalent of dogs that hang out with the bandits), use 200 recruits.
When you see only midfielders and defenders, use the 15 recruits/185 calvary.
There is the occasional variation, so just watch out for that.

Thanks for the guide! I've been using recruits and soldiers for the first 4 "camps," didn't even think to use cavalry~ I have so many horses too :/ oh well, will use cavalry from now on

[Vetinari]

I thought all we had to do was get the goalie, which was #6, #9, and then the goalie...

and then you still have to clean up the rest of the field, bummer

[IwylByteU]

for the goalie there is no need for a second wave with 100R/20S/30C/50LB lost 44R

[Brae]

You did much better on the first half of the field than I did -- well done. I took out the goalie with 200R and lost 55.

Thank you for writing this up - looking forward to #2 after I recover from my losses!

[hightillidie420]

lol theres a much better way to do this like send in 15 recruits and the rest calvary at the goalie and u lose almost no recruits

[Maireen]

for the goalie there is no need for a second wave with 100R/20S/30C/50LB lost 44R

I lost 26R with 130R/70C

[ttppppp]

Thank you all'''''''''''

Is there a match 3-4?

[DawnMadeMeDoThis]

Is there a match 3-4?

There's 6 soccer adventures all together. I'm sure more guides will pop up as soon as people get them done.
