    Roaring Bull "blended guide" FAST MAP

    1st - All credit to EvilJ - His guides are the best and I am a big time disciple.
    2nd - What I am posting here, perhaps is the result of a mechanical failure I am making on EvilJ guides; I acknowledge this.

    PROBLEM I am solving: The C3 Block on EvilJ's Veteran Cannon and Major General Guides fails too often for me and the cost of failure is steep. It is either a mistake I make OR the long duration of the WT to fall causes the blocking battle to fail too often.

    BLENDED SOLUTION:
    ROARING BULL - DOMESDAY's EVILJ BLENDED GUIDE

    CAMP NUMERATION & SEQUENCE USED BELOW - EvilJ Veteran General Guide only - BUT
    ATTACK CONFIGURATIONS (below) originate from two other EvilJ guides as well.

    PURPOSE: to avoid the difficult C3 block from Veteran and Major Guides that fails - in my humble opinion - from time to time because the WT takes a long time to bring down.)

    START with the THREE positions safe for diagonal attacks from Evil J Veteran Cannon Guide, X1, X2 and X3. X1- normal general, X2 Major Gen or Vet, X3 BHG

    C1 - 47 recruits & 223 elites

    C2 - 136 recruits, 1 elite, 133 cannon

    C3 - 118 recruits, 32 bow, 120 cannon

    C4 - 1st wave: 161 bow USE POSITION X3 for this wave
    2nd wave - 270 cavalry

    C5 - BLOCK 65 elite 135 cavalry
    WT1 ( the middle of the three) - 107 recruits, 54 bow, 109 cannon

    MOVE to Evil J Veteran guide X3 and X4

    C6 - BLOCK 37 elite 150 cavalry
    WT2 ( the first of the three) 129 recruits 1 elite 140 cannon

    Move to Evil J X7 & X8

    C7 - BLOCK 1 recruit
    WT3 - 210 recruits, 1 elite, 59 cannon

    ANALYSIS - we lose the bowmen from 1st wave on C4 but save a few recruits - in exchange for ZERO RISK with the C3 block.

    Keep on ridin' and THANK YOU EVIL J

    your welcome...lol
    with my last update, the block on C3 has a chance of failing of about 1%, compared to the previous 1%, using 60s+121e+13b

    I can confirm as of my next run that the EvilJ C3 block (above) worked. Only 99 more trial runs to go! LOL Thanks again!
