Adult diapers too... (yes I started that campaign back in 2019 in 1.12 and am _still_ grinding through it even though I don't like it... because I could give mules stubborn lessons)</div> <div id="sig693393"

With campaigns that have divergent paths, particularly those as different as HttT, I just have to play it more than once, choosing a different way through each time. I've played it through with every possible option, cause I'm a dummy like that. If that's not for you, OK, but there are some very interesting combinations of ways to go through HttT that make it more or less difficult. (I've done the same with Eastern Invasion for that matter, and I'm replaying Eastern Invasion now because it had some changes.)<br> <br> I second the advice to start over, but you can choose a different path at The Bay of Pearls or anywhere else so it is like playing a different campaign.<br> <div style="margin:20px;margin-top:5px"><div class="quotetitle" style="vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block"><strong>Spoiler:</strong> <input class="button1" style="font-size:0.8em" type="button" value="Show" onclick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].style.display != '') { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].style.display = ''; this.value = 'Hide'; this.innerText = ''; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].style.display = 'none'; this.value = 'Show'; this.innerText = ''; }"></div><div class="quotecontent" style="display:none"> The units unlocked by getting the Gryphon eggs are not all that much more useful than horsemen. </div></div></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="p694673" class="post has-profile bg1"> <div class="inner"> <dl class="postprofile" id="profile694673"> <dt class="no-profile-rank has-avatar"> <div class="avatar-container"> <a href="./../memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=240167&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df" class="avatar"><img class="avatar" src="./../download/file.php?avatar=240167_1674772129.jpg" width="100" height="100" alt="User avatar" /></a> </div> <a href="./../memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=240167&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df" class="username">Dyrcona</a> </dt> <dd class="profile-posts"><strong>Posts:</strong> <a href="./../search.php?author_id=240167&sr=posts&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df">17</a></dd> <dd class="profile-joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> December 26th, 2021, 12:59 pm</dd> </dl> <div class="postbody"> <div id="post_content694673"> <h3 > <a href="./../viewtopic.php?p=694673&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df#p694673">Re: Campaigning for dummies</a> </h3> <ul class="post-buttons"> <li> <a href="./../posting.php?mode=quote&p=694673&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df" 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=694673&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df#p694673" 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&u=240167&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df" class="username">Dyrcona</a></strong> » </span><time datetime="2024-11-12T11:34:01+00:00">November 12th, 2024, 11:34 am</time> </p> <div class="content">My advice on getting XP for your leader is to maneuver your troops so that the leader is always protected and can get the killing blow when necessary. Once your leader has leveled up, you can use the leader to soften up the enemy to help level up your other units. In campaigns where your leader has, or gets, leadership leveling them up is very important.<br> <br> Ways to avoid getting your leader killed:<br> <ol style="list-style-type:decimal"> <li> Use planning mode to move your units into the positions you think you want them to be in.</li> <li> Check your enemy's movements. There are a couple of ways to do this. You can click on individual units to see where they can go, or use Ctrl+v to reveal all of your enemy's moves.</li> <li> Guard your leader while they are weak so that no more than 1 enemy can attack them at a time. (This is a good rule for mages and other weak units, too.)</li> <li> Keep a healer nearby or put your leader on a village with some guards around.</li> <li> Don't be afraid to change the planned moves if you see something that you do not like, such as a powerful enemy unit could reach your leader.</li> </ol> Some general advice:<br> <ol style="list-style-type:decimal"> <li> Use planning mode, especially when you're first learning the game/units, etc.</li> <li> Don't over recruit/recall. Most scenarios only require 2 to 4 turns worth of recruits and recalls for success. Some do require more, but those are rare.</li> <li> Recall higher level units later because they eat more gold. Let your first recruits grab some villages before you recall 3rd level units.</li> <li> Don't be afraid to reload a save or to start a scenario over if you lose. (I understand that some players like to play with permadeath, but that's not for me.)</li> <li> If you find one scenario impossible to beat, perhaps you should go back a scenario or two and replay that with the goal of getting a higher gold carryover bonus.</li> <li> You can also restart a scenario at a lower difficulty setting. (I won't tell anyone if you do.) <img class="smilies" src="./../images/smilies/icon_laugh.gif" width="16" height="16" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing"></li> <li> Expect to have losses.</li> <li> Sometimes recruiting a keep full of cheap units to throw at the enemy while your bigger units get into position works.</li> <li> Don't forget to have fun.

First time I ever ran into such a thing as a youngster I was literally outraged that parts of the game had been "intentionally hidden". Of course I realized later that they were intended to be replayed. I was not pleased to find that out. : )</div> <div id="sig694683" class="signature">-- <br> <a href="viewtopic.php?p=662182#p662182" class="postlink">Lonely Era</a> <a href="viewtopic.php?p=662897#p662897" class="postlink">Merry Christmas Campaign</a> <a href="viewtopic.php?p=663269#p663269" class="postlink">Red MP Maps</a> <a href="viewtopic.php?p=665210#p665210" class="postlink">Everfell</a> <a href="viewtopic.php?p=665296#p665296" class="postlink">Age of Trials</a></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="p694684" class="post has-profile bg1"> <div class="inner"> <dl class="postprofile" id="profile694684"> <dt class="no-profile-rank has-avatar"> <div class="avatar-container"> <a href="./../memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=180204&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df" class="avatar"><img class="avatar" src="./../download/file.php?avatar=180204_1672449756.png" width="89" height="100" alt="User avatar" /></a> </div> <a href="./../memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=180204&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df" class="username">Atreides</a> </dt> <dd class="profile-posts"><strong>Posts:</strong> <a href="./../search.php?author_id=180204&sr=posts&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df">1227</a></dd> <dd class="profile-joined"><strong>Joined:</strong> March 30th, 2019, 10:38 pm</dd> <dd class="profile-custom-field profile-phpbb_location"><strong>Location:</strong> On the 2nd story of the centre village of Merwuerdigliebe turning the lights on and off</dd> </dl> <div class="postbody"> <div id="post_content694684"> <h3 > <a href="./../viewtopic.php?p=694684&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df#p694684">Re: Campaigning for dummies</a> </h3> <ul class="post-buttons"> <li> <a href="./../posting.php?mode=quote&p=694684&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df" 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=694684&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df#p694684" 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&u=180204&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df" class="username">Atreides</a></strong> » </span><time datetime="2024-11-12T20:56:06+00:00">November 12th, 2024, 8:56 pm</time> </p> <div class="content"><blockquote cite="./../viewtopic.php?p=694673&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df#p694673"><div><cite><a href="./../memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=240167&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df">Dyrcona</a> wrote: <a href="./../viewtopic.php?p=694673&sid=3f39c13a8668a77a225877a9172693df#p694673" data-post-id="694673" onclick="if(document.getElementById(hash.substr(1)))href=hash">↑</a><span class="responsive-hide">November 12th, 2024, 11:34 am</span></cite> [*] Don't over recruit/recall. Most scenarios only require 2 to 4 turns worth of recruits and recalls for success. Some do require more, but those are rare.<br> <br> [*] Recall higher level units later because they eat more gold. Let your first recruits grab some villages before you recall 3rd level units.<br> <br> [*] Sometimes recruiting a keep full of cheap units to throw at the enemy while your bigger units get into position works. </div></blockquote> Thanks those seem pretty good. The first one I did figure out myself recently. I used to keep recruiting endlessly. Comes from being a wargamer used to long attritional warfare.<br> <br> The second/third one are an eye opener. I always pick the very best recalls first. Reason is simply because I don't bother to do the math and figure out how much I'd need to save to recall them later but that's fixable. : ) I think I've also read the same advice elsewhere with a different reason: Cannon fodder first to die to the initial enemy rush, follow up with your elites as a sort of reserve to mop up the wounded enemies.<br> <br> Recruiting has always been odd to me. In the wargames I'm accustomed to you have a high "income" and zero stockpile so the normal way to build new units is like on a production line. The limited building one can do in wesnoth always throw me off totally. That's probably why I gravitate towards games on large maps (Dominus, Inanna) where you can amass a large number of villages and thus an income big enough to build 2/3 new units/turn which you then shuttle off to whichever front most requires them.<br> <br> Hmmm... I'm thinking I could perhaps tinker with smaller map settings by setting initial gold to 20 and income to 18. That'd recreate the environment I prefer maybe...</div> <div id="sig694684" class="signature">-- <br> <a href="viewtopic.php?p=662182#p662182" class="postlink">Lonely Era</a> <a
