Re: TNL Mission 14

Haha that's amazing, though totally not the way you're supposed to do it (you did receive a warning message when going up there, right? :P). I guess I should strengthen the defences there and actually make the AI retaliate when you attack them there. Thanks for pointing out this possibility. :P

I did. But I thought this was the hardest route possible to take, so I took it head on and worked with what I had. I guess this was to prove that no additional food is necessary, nor any extra help for the supposed hardest (non) route, at least.

Was that message hinting that you should go through the food town to get there (like I originally thought)? And if so, I guess there is a script that sends ally AI troops there? It's impossible to cross the bridge with a single knight, since the four knights guarding it don't chase you when you're close to them.

It is possible to cross it, I beat it the normal way, I won't spoil how, but you will know what to do if you follow the designed path ;)
Without honour, victory is hollow.

Yes, the normal way works. If you'll do it again you will see. :)

Re: TNL Mission 14

@TDL,

Here is a save file that I had right before this battle between red and black begins. I don't have an old computer myself, but maybe it will help you find what's wrong (if something is wrong: I didn't have this problem myself).
test.zip
In addition, why did my victory stats say that I lost two units? (Either see my last PDF screenshot or just load my .sav file to see.)

I think because two units died that belonged to player 1 (but are not controllable/visible (actually one of them might be the stonemason)). Good catch.

I was just working on the mission again and it's now like 99,9% finished. I also looked into this part again, and you're right, I also noticed a decline in performance after that part - but only when speeding up the game with F8. This does indicate that the script is not very effecient and is slowing down the game, but since my computer is older and slower than yours I'm not sure if that's the only problem (it could also be your computer). If more people have this issue I'll look into the script.
Now, finishing touches and then mission 15...
Edit: finished mission 14 is now available on TeamSpeak (Map Archive --> The Dark Lord's maps).
