(1-10)<br> Impossible if you follow the scenario objectives, relatively easy if you don't <img class="smilies" src="./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title="Very Happy"> <br> (3) How clear did you find the scenario objectives?<br> Not clear - the characters' dialogue would suggest you are expected to attack, but the scenario objectives say hold out as long as possible, which of course suggests you are supposed to defend. First time through, I followed the stated objectives, and defended. I got slaughtered, as the humans really get a <em class="text-italics">lot</em> of reinforcements. Second time through I ignored the objectives and sent my entire army at the human fort and took the Earl down on turn 7.<br> (4) How clear and interesting did you find the dialog and storyline of the scenario?<br> The campaign storyline is pretty good, there isn't all that much in this scenario though.<br> (5) What were your major challenges in meeting the objectives of the scenario?<br> I found it impossible to defend against endless waves of level 2 and 3 units.

(1-10)<br> ...A 2. All I did was recall my strongest veterans in anticipation of a difficult, bloodthirsty siege. I hid them right behind my allies' sides on Dusk, letting them human shield themselves, and on First Watch, I basically slaughtered the humans. Slurbows to melee units, Warlords/Troll Warriors to ranged units, and Flankers/Direwolves to Mages/Calvary. Honestly, by Second Watch, none of my veterans were dead and yet most of the attacking army + some of the front guards had been killed. The human leader actually tried to attack a Flanker outside of the fort, failing to kill it and exposing himself. He was quickly mobbed to death, and I won by turn 7, barely after the humans spawned at the bottom.<br> (3) How clear did you find the scenario objectives?<br> Very clear, if the map didn't even have dialog, I could've figured out what to do.<br> (4) How clear and interesting did you find the dialog and storyline of the scenario?<br> Meh, the setup of the map itself and the storyline/dialog from the scenarios before already make me know what to expect.<br> (5) What were your major challenges in meeting the objectives of the scenario?<br> There were none, at all.<br> (6) How fun do you think the scenario is?

This way, most veterans survived (but still hardly any gold left). Only problem: when I retreat, my allies don't join my in my center castle, but go for a mad dash and, of course, die.<br> Third attempt: recalled every veteran I had in turn 1, using center and wall keep, spent all my gold the second turn using two wall keeps and rushed, attacking at dusk. By turn 6, Lanbech made the deadly mistake to attack personally.

Completed on the second attempt on turn 12, with the loss of one L3 unit. Starting gold 555.<br> (3) Clear.<br> (4) Good.<br> (5) <br> I was sitting comfortably, manning the walls of Dorset and watching the fight in the plain below. The allies were kicking ass so well that I thought I should set off in pursuit before they won it for me. Then, BAM, 1000GP of reinforcements show up, with my forces in the middle of the plain. Fortunately the newcomers mostly went for my allies, and when the second night came my troops broke through their weakened units and killed the enemy commander. But 1 more turn and I would have struggled to survive against another 1000GP of reinforcements.<br> <br> I did not recruit enough units for tackling heavy infantry. The defensive terrain near the enemy is not ideal for me; and defending until they exhausted themselves was not a playable strategy anyway.<br> <br> I really didn't know how to play the level initially; I was expecting defence and had a total change of plan on turn 3-4 when it became apparent that defence was not needed, and again on turn 7 when I realised that a knock-out attack might be the only way to win in a sensible time.<br> <br> (6) 5. <br> <br> On the positive side, this level achieves what few do: it is a big battle that forces the player to attack. Usually a Wesnoth level involves defending a good line in the terrain for 3-5 turns and, once the flood of enemies subsides, then sweep over to the enemy keep. By having such huge reinforcements arriving, the player has to attack, and to attack in the teeth of some serious enemy troops.<br> <br> On the downside, the plot and setup of this level (bear in mind that the entire campaign has been building up to this scenario, the big human invasion) has set it up as a defence-against-the-big-human-attack, and instead it turns into an attacking level. This seemed strange. It is also a level where a player could easily play the wrong strategy and have to replay, although that did not happen to me.<br> <br> I'm not a fan of levels with really big camps like this, I feel that makes for less interesting terrain.<br> <br> I'm also not keen on levels where I end up having to play like the AI plays: overstretched attacking, trying to kill as much as possible and accepting some losses in return. I also dislike that I was overstretched on several turns and knew that I could lose experienced units, but got away with it because the allies were more exposed so the enemy went after them; I don't like playing in a way that intentionally risks my experienced units. But I guess it doesn't hurt me to be a bit less defensive once in a while <img class="smilies" src="./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":-)" title="Smile">.<br> <br> This type of level highlights the AI's limited tactics; the enemy would be much better off defending, and if they just stuck lots of shock troopers in the camp tiles and defended then they would be tough as hell to beat.<br> <br> (7)<br> * try to change the story, or reposition this level in the campaign, so this isn't the much-hyped defence-against-the-horde scenario. <br> * change the dialogue in the scenario itself to explain that the humans have a strong force already but that more will be arriving every day, so the player knows up front and can recruit accordingly.<br> * give the enemy more gold to begin with, so the allies don't just walk all over the first wave and do need the player to help; and give the allies a bit more income or reduce the enemy reinforcements to keep the balance.<br> <br> (8) I lost Kapou'e once, to poor placement.</div> </div> </div> <div class="back2top"> <a href="#top" class="top" title="Top"> <i class="icon fa-chevron-circle-up fa-fw icon-gray" aria-hidden="true"></i> <span class="sr-only">Top</span> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div id="p493098" class="post has-profile bg2"> <div class="inner"> <dl class="postprofile" id="profile493098"> <dt class="no-profile-rank no-avatar"> <div class="avatar-container"> </div> <a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&amp;u=106200&amp;sid=c350f4330c7510c40e645a1214db4540" class="username">cph</a> </dt> <dd class="profile-posts"><strong>Posts:</strong> <a href="./search.php?author_id=106200&amp;sr=posts&amp;sid=c350f4330c7510c40e645a1214db4540">129</a></dd> <dd class="profile-joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> May 12th, 2007, 4:29 pm</dd> <dd class="profile-custom-field profile-phpbb_location"><strong>Location:</strong> London, UK</dd> </dl> <div class="postbody"> <div id="post_content493098"> <h3 > <a href="./viewtopic.php?p=493098&amp;sid=c350f4330c7510c40e645a1214db4540#p493098">Re: Scenario Review: SotBE 17 - Human Horde</a> </h3> <ul class="post-buttons"> <li> <a href="./posting.php?mode=quote&amp;p=493098&amp;sid=c350f4330c7510c40e645a1214db4540" title="Reply with quote" class="button button-icon-only"> <i class="icon fa-quote-left fa-fw" aria-hidden="true"></i><span class="sr-only">Quote</span> </a> </li> </ul> <p class="author"> <a class="unread" href="./viewtopic.php?p=493098&amp;sid=c350f4330c7510c40e645a1214db4540#p493098" title="Post"> <i class="icon fa-file fa-fw icon-lightgray icon-md" aria-hidden="true"></i><span class="sr-only">Post</span> </a> <span class="responsive-hide">by <strong><a href="./memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&amp;u=106200&amp;sid=c350f4330c7510c40e645a1214db4540" class="username">cph</a></strong> &raquo; </span><time datetime="2011-06-17T21:00:35+00:00">June 17th, 2011, 9:00 pm</time> </p> <div class="content">I've been thinking about this one some more.<br> <blockquote><div><cite>cph wrote:</cite> (6) 5. <br> <br> On the positive side, this level achieves what few do: it is a big battle that forces the player to attack.

But I think the 5/10 is right too, so I need a better explanation of what it was that made me not really like this level. I gave some reasons but none of those are really major things.<br> <br> I think the main problem is that I spent 6-7 turns watching allies fight, then had to drag my large army across the plain without much fighting to do, and then had only really 2 turns of frantic fighting at the end of it. The ratio of walking to fighting is too high.<br> <br> The next level, despite having an even longer watching-allies-fight period before you get stuck in, worked as a better version of this level (albeit it suffered from being a rerun of this one, and with the weaker enemy it didn't have the pressure on the player that forced the strategy in this one).<br> <br> I think my ideas for improving it would make me like it more; no guarantees whether anyone else would <img class="smilies" src="./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":-)" title="Smile">.
