The barbarian kingdoms of the North are invading the beautiful and prosperous Kingdom of Esrionet. The evil kings known as the 'snake' and the 'wolf' respectively, are terrorising the land. You must garrison the old castle and village at the Sprellsife Vale.
You will be surely set upon by the bloodthirsty snake. You must build up our forces in this village in preparation of the wolfs arrivel. All craftsmen have been conscripted into the army so you will find building anything difficult.
This is a great eco and battle challenge for which you have to do everything with good thought and tactics.
Or, almost everything. The author gives the hint to buy swords and armour because swordsmen were critical to beat the invasion.
I had 15 swordsmen but did not need them. There is another "weapon" at hand, one can use the time (and the -5 fear factor in the beginning).
Many buildings are not available, others are. A unique situation and tension. Space is scarce is the village, rock tiles and huts often block it. Placing dairy farms will be a puzzle and task.
On Very hard, I won in August 1275, losing 4% of my troops.

Same time , a little more losses ( a squad of bowmen eaten by wolves without any reaction !?).
Had to use the " laddermen trick " to make money , using spearmen instead of laddermen .
Nice puzzle .
