The siege engine destruction attack didn't quite work out as well as I planned and I only managed to destroy one and damage a second. I also started some farms which proved to be unnecessary, as you have enough food to last the mission.īy the time the Rat's army showed up, I had some 30 archers and a score of spearmen². Another party of soldiers was sent out to hide and ambush the siege engines during the next attack. However, I needed to remind myself to abandon it in time. In the mean time I added more wall and another tower which would serve as an advanced fire platform. Once I had enough wood I built a market, traded for some wood and restarted my production. This did mean I had to switch off my bow and spear production which didn't make me too happy. By deleting a section of the wooden wall I managed to salvage enough wood to rebuild two huts and restart my production. I found out I'd run out of wood and all of my woodcutters' huts had been destroyed by the Pig's men. I have to say this took quite a lot of point-and-click work.Īfter losing most of their men they ran off. The archers in the gatehouse managed to kill all the soldiers attacking the quarry which saved some 20 stone from destruction. The spearmen managed to take out the stone chuckers before they did too much damage¹. I also fortified the outer wall (the corner closest to the sign post) and added a tower on the side. Two fletchers were added and all available weaponry was used to recruit spearmen. I gave it a few tries and ended up with posting some spearmen ouside the castle and adding a big moat and a diversionary wall around the outside. He's sending spearmen, laddermen and a few engineers - enough to man three stone-throwing, siege engines. You have about a year and a half to prepare for the first attack which consists of a largish force of the Pig's soldiers. This is a fairly short mission, lasting only about four years however, it will get you plenty of action. This is an excellent opportunity to finish off one of the Tyrants for good. Time spent finishing his moat would be well spent. It's very badly designed so you will need to strengthen it.
