Walkthrough
Start by training a Peasant. There is a Gold Mine to the Southeast, so start mining there. When you have at least four peasants mining gold, train at least two for lumber. Build a Barracks when at least three farms. Place your current troops at a position like this, somewhere near your town:
(F=Footman, A=Archer) F | | F A | | FA F A |or| A F A | | FA F | |
Next, the AI will start sending grunts to attack, and then spearmen. They will come from the North, South, and East. Wait until they all come or use a good formation strategy to destroy the orcs.
Tactics
- Make sure to train a lot of archers and footmen! There will be a consistency of attacks.
