Hmm. Andreus, I didn't catch that, but thanks a lot for your help! However, if the radius is increased to 12 tiles, that should be enough. At least the way I beat it didn't take advantage of the 10 tile radius, so it's still a legitimate strategy for this difficult mission, but I suppose I could have had fewer losses from that first village that way.
I like that you used 3 barracks like I did!
Did you finish/win it?
To everyone who watched my replay,
How was my village, construction speed, and weapon production speed, given the circumstances (I believe towards the end, my village could produce 1 knight per minute)? I have always been paranoid about food production, so you can see at the end of the game, I had over 600 food items stored. Of course, I usually do not build more than two (or even one) vineyards, but I felt that it would be more efficient and permanent if I traded wine barrels for gold as opposed to coal, gold ore, or iron ore because the mines were so far away. I also built so many stables and swine farms to trade pigs and horses for iron weapons.
