"Smokey Bacon", yes, that one is a great mission, too. Kinda "Fist Blood" on an advanced level. You don't start from scratch but have to reorganize the village and castle, thereby establishing an allround economy and defence.
I spent the time and re-played it on Very hard. Man, I was tearing down Apple orchards all the time to get space for new buildings or to relocate the fruit farms according to the new outline.
The mission would be worth to try out different starting strategies.
Pity that only the degree of troops lost counts for extra victory points instead of, say, gold as well. We could otherwise arrange a competition for fun. Had 8% losses which makes 24,200 points.
(Had the idea, once, for a competition about Crusader military campaign "Antioch, the Counter Siege": how many bows produced?)
