The Dark Priests adventure guide

Dark Priests Adventure

Units Required:	459R, 218C, 183S, 11M, 137LB (1008 total)
Units Required 250 Gen:	279R, 173S, 232C, 60LB, 120XB
Days to complete:	2

A fairly easy map that requires moving your camps right from the start to give direct attack routes to the Leaders Camp and avoid a lot of costly battles.

I've added this quick reference map showing the general attack positions, something I intend to expand on to make a 1 image guide to the entire adventure.

The two leader camps in Sector 3 can be skipped in favour of just destroying the Dark Castle but you wont get the maximum XP from the island and so I recommend taking them out if you have the time and troops.

Along with Witch of The Swamp it should be a staple XP farming map for any player. You will find this map rather often when you do short adventure searches and is fairly cheap to purchase from the trade system.

Sector	Enemy	Attack With [vet]	Expected Losses
	Move immediately to the entrance of Sector 3. You can take out both Sector 1 Leader and start the assault on Sector 3 from here (see map).
Sector 1	20 Thug, 10 Dog	18R, 40S (or 40R, 160S) [190R, 60S]	16R [16R]
Sector 1	Skunk, 20 Thug, 20 Ranger, 20 Dog	40R, 160S (or 200R) [90R, 160S]	33R [32R]
Sector 3	60 Cult, 20 Dark Priest	16R, 1S, 183C [12R, 18S, 220C]	15R [11R]
	Move as far NWW as possible so your general is near the entrance to Sector 2. Note you can skip the second 30 Pr,30 Sn camp, and just send 60R, 140S against 30 Cu, 20 Sn, 10 Da - this will take out both camps, saving you a few minutes for no extra loss.
Sector 2	30 Cultist, 40 Dark Priest	5R, 1S, 194C [10R, 20S, 220C]	5R [1R]
	30 Priest, 30 Sneaker	32R, 168S	32R
	30 Cultist, 20 Sneak, 10 Dancer	27R, 173S	26R
	Church 40 Cult, 30 Priest, 20 Sneak, Witch	80R, 11M, 1S, 58C, 50LB [50R, 100C, 40LB, 60XB]	80R, 6M, 12C [45R, 12C]
Sector 3 (Optional)	25 Cult, 25 Sneak, 10 Dancer, 30 Fan 545 xp	55R, 145S [70R, 180S]	51R [51R]
	30 Sneak, 50 Fan, 10 Dancer 620 xp	80R, 120S [90R, 160S]	57R [57R]
	Non-leader camp, 30 sneak, 40 priest 500 xp	Clear leader camps for max xp reward
	Defeating the two leader camps to the left and right of the dark castle is not required to complete the adventure.
Final Boss	Dark Castle 40 Priest, 40 Cult, 40 Sneaker, 1 DHP	Wave 1: 130R [110R, 20LB, 120XB] Wave 2: 23R, 1S, 39C, 137LB	W1: 130R [83R, 11LB] W2: 22R
Total Expected Losses			409R, 6M, 12C [245R, 11LB, 12C]

[Adventure] Outlaws

2012-09-18T04:44:00.001-07:00

Hi folks!

"Outlaws" is a pretty cool adventure for me. You need of course much troops, but you could get real cool reward. Also its very easy to play. You will lose only R and B (of course is possible to play it also with M or S) if you want. You will need some time to finished it if you have only 3 or 4 generals with the R variant. With 6 generals you could play it at once also with using only R/B. If you use a general setup with M or S instead of R you could play it at once of course with 3 generals minimum. For me it's one of my favorite 1 Player games and i'm looking forward to play it soon again!

Thumbs up!

BTW: I found a way to block camp 7/8 ... i will put therefore soon a second tactical map online. So its possible to reduce the losses about 150R from 1750 to 1600R. But i will try 2 other camps too... maybe i could reduce more the next time.

Hi there,

Horseback is an easy and fast to play adventure with nice reward and very nice XP. I uploaded 2 playing variants. A normal one and an one blocking method. Please use the blocking method only if you know what you do, otherwise you will lose maybe more troops as with the normal method. Have fun!

"Pirates" is on of my favorite adventure at the moment. Easy and fast to play (max 1 hour), you will lose only R and a big reward. If you want fast and many resources, then play this.

Have fun and good luck with the loot!

Witch Of The Swamps

@SidV

"Swampy" is a nice adventure with the chance to get an extra adventure: Old Friends
The losses are not much, but you will lose 100C. It's very easy to play, no traps, no tactis needed, only defeat on camp after another. So have fun with it and good luck to get Old Friends

[Adventure] Traitors

2012-09-18T02:59:00.003-07:00

@SidV
The adventure "Traitors" was here my first adventure i've played and found with my explorer. You will need many troops for the normal Version, so its not very attractive to play it. "Traitors" its definitely not one of my favorites. But of course, build you're own opinion and maybe you like it more than i

The "only XP Version" is a very good method for fast leveling between lvl26-lvl30.
