I spend hours on this mission. Finaly beat it. Here are some tips: Spend all your money on wood. Spend all your wood on : 1Inn 2 houses 1 stonequery carefully place so you can still wall it a brewery or 2 5 woodcutters armoury 1ox 2 hopp farms. Place your grannery on the right of your castle your stockpile in front of your castle your baracks on the south west side of your stockpile your armoury on the left side of your stockpile. your woodcutter near the trees in the grass(not the trees in north west) Now leave some wood, sell your swords, maces, spears. Buy an amour maker, xbow maker, bow maker to start. Meanwile wall yourself! :) get some archers up get 5 extra xbow's. After the buildup: From this point you will be defending. Dont build a tower quick. they are main agro targets for bots. Even with archers on them its somthimes hard to snipe the catapults. have some levy militia (30) you order around to agro swordmen or to intercept scorpions and catapults. Use the wood the cutters give you for new armour maker(maby 1 extra xbow maker) , a mill and 2 bakeries. use the tile the woodcutters cleard for a weathfarm. Once you can feed your people you can have alot of money fast. It can be wise (after your main tower and baracks have 30 xbow+ and 10 bow+ ) to have a market. I think markets are very handy + your food diversity can give you the ability to raise taxes some more. Build some swordmen , use mantles and alot of xbow men. get in position and shoot the enemy from the walls. Dont rush things. Start with the slave king-> the kalif -> the snake -> the sultan -> the lionheart -> the wolf. But make sure once you start with the sultan you can go in one move to the wolf (the army caps can be crazy for the wolf and his armourd units) some more tips: Once your woodcutters cut all the trees close to you they will go for the trees far away. Delete them (if they are not yet destroyd by lionhearth) But keep 1 woodcutter always walking off to the north east to get some trees. This guy can argo enemies that your archers cant shoot. Try to keep your left side verry secure. Use the right ground as a battle ground if they flood you with troops. Once you lose the inn or your weapon houses your lost anyway. Save, but dont save after each battle you 'won'. I found myself trying to make a save game work ... but most of the time a tabula rasa was the best option. Forgive me for my English !
"We don't want to interfere with the will of God". Love it, Sergiu, watched every video from Stronghold Crusader 2 so far. Looking forward to seeing you play the DLCs.
Nice vid! I've yet to do this mission, just unlocked it. What I usually do is set one healer and one Sergeant at Arms on each tower; buffing the defense of the archers/crossbowmen. It works pretty nice, in all the other later missions. Nice harrassing in the beginning, I'll try that one.
Hynek C crossbowmen are already pretty beefy the sergeants make them soak up a noticeable amount of damage just make sure you put them in the front of your towers
And if you set more healers (10-15 a tower) on them, you won't even lose more than 3 crossbowmen per attack, as the healers are healing fast enough before their healthbar reaches zero.
SergiuHellDragoonHQ Great tactics through out all these missions, I learned a lot from you. And managed to finish this level as well, but in a funny way, I tried many ways like defending or trying to harass some of them, but all didn't work. What I did I started from the very beginning producing archers and distributed them to all 6 castles especially near their resources, and they got stuck they were not able to produce army, but I had to be careful all the time to each point because any one of them released from that he will hit back badly. I had to take care of the big arrow throwers by sending archers nights to destroy them before killing my distributed archers.
thanks to Lord Sergiu i just complete Crusader HD , Crusader HD Extreme , Crusader 2 in a row if you guys can beat "Hell Teeth - The Penisula" this mission will not be a problem for you Save and Load is very important , before you attack the others My tips for Hell Teeth mission ? ALL THE WAY TO CROSSBOW MAN :D AS MUCH AS YOU CAN ! :)
Lol man...your are EXTREMLY lucky if you finish this mision only on 2 hours... Me...i took me 6 hours after killing the sultana from the beginning to finish this godamit mision... Is the most unfair mision....is allmost unplayable for a tupical player... Even i deal with it, in 6 hours, i feel very lucky for finished... Nice vid by the way :)
i finished this mission with 30 minutes only the idea is you should attack every one from the beginning with archers you did that with only 3 enemies which slowed down your economy and left 3 strong enemies build up there castle very well thats why you struggled 2 hours
I don't think anything you do in this patch is even remotely possible in the current game. I can remove the wolf and another civ immediately, but its still near impossible to not get overwhelmed by 100 archers and 30 swordsmen a minute.
I built a heavy fortress and withstood the ugliest attacks ever before I went into war with every single Lord... And you just fuck them up within the first seconds :D
Hey Sergiu, do you play Stronghold Crusader 2 any longer? I just looked your Play and I think you coudn't play it today in the same kind, because the play has changed. It would be interesting to see you now with the current Play, because I think, today it is more difficult.
Yeap I'm trying to beat this level last 2 weeks .I tried everything but they are unfairly agressive.They bringin charging to homes and granary for .Harassing with catapult from afar keep sending knight,swordman and crossbowman groups after 3 minutes. Like this is made for trolling to players.
@@ibrahimali3555 it is impossible even to atack them at the begining, if you atack at least one enemy, the others will kill you. I meant with the current game.
Hi Sergiu! Big fan of yours and have been following you for quite some time. Have you tried doing this mission after the "Jackal & the Khan" DLC? I have been banging my head around with all kind of strategies but can't seem to get through it. I would really appreciate it if you could go through it once again because none of the available strategies seem to work on this particular map. I have been trying to follow your strategy as well, for the last two weeks but it just won't work. I have completed all the missions. Its just this mission that has become a pain in the back side. Especially Sultana with her pumped up "Assassins".
Guess all I needed was to post this cry of help here. Cleared the mission immediately after posting this. The trick is to take out the Slave King immediately at the start like shown in the video. The only difference, while you are doing it, post some archers with 5 Crossbowmen on to the ledge to the south east of your base to disrupt the Stone economy of both the Caliph and Sultana. These archers will also keep the annoying Slave invasions from the Caliph in check. Also they will thin out the advances from Sultana before they reach your walls. I did have to put 2 healers and 5 Pikemen (in Stand Ground mode) later on to guard them because of all the annoying Assassins attacks from Sultana on this bunch. Next in line, take out Caliph by sending Crossbowmen only. 3rd is Sultana, 4th Richard and then Saladin. I always love saving the Wolf for last. Make sure to make use of all the quarries and Iron Mines that free up once you kill the respective lords. A lot of stone for a lot of gold. Building a market after killing Sultana is a good idea to sell all that excessive stone coming in to buy wood for making your crossbows. Go for towers once you have killed Richard. Every time the Wolf attacks, you can easily nuke his trebuchets with the archers from your towers. But the archers are stupid, you need to manually target them to nuke the trebuchets first. Next always kill the crossbowmen, because for some reason the archers love to target swordsmen first. I had a bread economy, with 3 mills and 16 bakeries. Cleared in 200 Days. Hope this helps.
How come when I put food to zero I get a -30 happiness assigned and you only get -15? That extra 15 was too much for me to overcome. Has it changed in an update?
I don't think you can still get the 4 diff food bonus when rations are set to 0. That would destroy the strategy you used because you would be at -30 instead of -15 on the ration happiness. The difference of 15 in happiness throughout the mission is HUGE. You need to account for food now or something else to make that up. I think you should redo this mission with the current updates, it's harder.
Don't you want to make a gameplay with the update? Things are more difficult now. No food= -30. After 15 mins more catapults are coming then I've ever seen in total etc. //// update: nevermind, I made it.
I was not able to win this mission with Wolf's crossbowmen attacks so I killed him right at the beginning. Than it was much easier, yet still difficult...
thx so much! unfortunately i have just an ati radeon hd 6370M and it's not really good for playing this game very well... so I was looking for a new nice pc for playing this game with better graphics ^^
TheDavson93 Hahahaha....forget it bro. :P Generally speaking I have an i7 4770k with 16gb drr3 ram and gtx 780 and this game lags like hell *if you have all settings on ultra and large numbers of troops and buildings*. This game is really bad pc port for its graphics, have massive audio gliches and bugs... Forget it to buy a new pc only for this game because trust me you will not be happy with the perfomance on this game anyway. The game however is not bad.... but...
i have tried the mission for oever 7 hours... not enouhgt soldiers to end those fckers, i ended deleting all the savings, not trying anymore, i passed all the other missions and campaings
O men you have a cliff where you can place your archers to harras Caliph ,not t send them down there.I won every skirmish trail but your tactics are funny.
This is the difficult task many plains traversed how I spent the whole day playing in this mission and what crossed my question for you how you can make money safe food is still zero and 24 Hey, I lay it down for those who become 14 Please help me
I beat it in 70 day for the first time i playing this match but now i will win this until 30 days in these match you must everything put into army you have uselessly big economic delay is not necessary
vladimir lenin You are right here. But, that costs time and they have wells. It might work if you constantly focus that, but I do not know, I haven't tried it out yet. :)
They all have their own difficulty. I really miss the efficiency boost of discipline buildings from Stronghold 1 and Crusader though. 50%+ boost in production efficiency is certainly noticeable!!
I've finished within 65 days this mission (I mean the days in the game :D Not real life). Just at the start of the game destroy all enemies economy with archers and its done. I was disappointed :( The game was too easy for me.
I've check every strategy I found.I tried rushing I tried defending and harassing nah man they sending sucha big armies in sucha short time you can't take a breath.Like Firefly change to game for trolling to players.This is impossibie in current times.
