Hi there!

I share here some info's to the adventures i've played. First of all for myself *lol* if i wanna play it again, but also for the people who ask me ingame about tactical questions (how i played that... or this and so on).

UPDATE: I stop aktiv playing here on TSO, means i support no longer this journal. Wish you all a good time, was me a pleasure!

BTW: The reward infos in the adventures are translated screens from the german wiki (http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.siedlertools.de%2Fwik i%2FKampfsystem%23Mittlere_Lager&sl=de&tl=en&hl=de&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&prev=%2Flanguage_tools) and not from me. A link to the wiki is also in my signature.

Hi there!

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.

See Yu,
SidV

Is this a good reward ? To kill that army you must spent much more resources.. only good part was xp, i guess..

Thx all ;)

Yes this it´s a good reward. But of course i spent many resources for the units i need. In the next day´s i will write my garnision settings to the adventure. For Traitors was it about 1200R

Units lost: max. 140R

1. 40 Deckscubber, 40 Lance Rider

Important: If you want the whole XP, then you have first to defeat camp 10 (croacer) and then DONT leave the map or click on the Quest Book. Otherwise the adventure would be finished and you get not all XP. Attack immediately after camp 10, camp 5 + 6.
BTW: Alternatively, it is possible to use instead of S also R or M. But you will have then some more losses.

Hi there!

"Swampy" is a nice adventure with the chance to get an extra adventure: Old Friends (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/15207-SidV-s-adventure-journal?p=169223&viewfull=1#post169223)
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 :)

Different garrison setup from other players: (not checked from me)
Aghiuta (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/15207-SidV-s-adventure-journal?p=175162&viewfull=1#post175162) with a interesting, different garrison setup.

How to read the garrison settings?
for example: [1: 70R 2: 200R 3: 130R 70S (390R)]
1: ... means is the 1st wave
2: ... means the 2nd wave
3: ... means the 3rd wave and so on :)
70R or 200R or 130R 70S ... means the garrison settings for 1 general
(390R) ... within the brackets () i wrote the maximum losses for the camp.
Hope its now a litte bit clearer.

There's a walkthrough of all the adventures on the german forum. It's with a lot of pictures, sothat even if you can't read german, you should still be able to understand what is needed for each adventure; http://forum.diesiedleronline.de/threads/15345-SiedlerVision-Abenteuer?p=192361&viewfull=1#post192361

I know the link of course... but i will write my own walktrough :)
The infos there aren´t always the best and some are wrong. So i want to calc all adventures by my own.

Hi there!

"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.
BTW: Pirates is the 2nd adventure with a chance to get a bonus adventure in the reward: Motherlove
Have fun and good luck with the loot!

Not sure but isn't something like 100 R and 100 M cheaper to make for croaker? Soldiers are a pain :P will give 40-50 R dead

Hi KillerCore of course. You could also use 100R + 100M or 200R would also work fine. I put only the "cheapest" way into the tactical infos what i know (and tested for myself).

I wrote it under the Garrision Settings as a hint :) thx for your input!

"Dark Priest" is a very nice 2 player adventure. Easy and very fast to play (max 1 hour). The losses are mostly R, reward and XP are also okay and you need not many units. Have fun!

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!

Hi there!

"Stealing From The Rich" is a 2 player adventure with bonus reward chance to get "Sir Robins's Castle" (a must have building ^^ and increase population +50). I like it because you will lose only R (of course if you want), reward and XP is also balanced. Have fun and good luck for the castle!
BTW: You get Barbie's Castle? Then please post here a screenshot of them m8

Thankyou for this, very helpful, cheers!, still dont know how you can get like 1000's troops when they only walk into map every 15 minutes, thats like just 96 in 1 day, and how to make all the resouces, example would take me more than a week just to get 50 cavary, and alot of the adventures have to be completed in just a few days ? also with alot of waves and having to wait 4 hours after a loss i dont know how i would ever get any of there adventures completed, and i have 580 residents.

Oh and what does the numbers refer to in the bracket parts of your posts like (31R) as a example.

13) 30 Shadowsneaker, 50 Fanatic, 10 Firedancer [1: 31R 2: 180C (31R)]

Oh and the D's in the below

4) 40 D. Soldier, 60 D. Longbow [30R 170C (25R)]

- With bread Daytrader. You could produce in your provision house settler with bread. That's the fastes way.
- Thx for info about the numbers. I will explain it on the starttheme here. 31R = 1 general with 31 recruits and the (1:) stands for is the first wave. If you play you're first adventure its easy to understand :) ... you will see.

Hi folks,

because some of you ask me often the same questions and i'm a little bit lazy guy... i will post here some adventure pro tips. I will update it from time to time. You could see an info about the changes at the end of this message.

Adventure Pro Tips

Q1: "Can i invite friends in my adventure?"
There are single and multiplayer adventure's at the moment available (1 Player, 2 or 3 Player). You could only invite people from your friendlist or guildmembers of your guild. Open the quest book, click on the adventure and then "invite friends".

PRO TIP: When you invite a friend into you'r adventure, be sure he is online and could accept immediately. After you invite your friend, a mail go's forward to him and he has 8 hours time to accept. If he would not accept, there is no way to stop the invitation. So you have to wait 8 hours. After the 8 hours you should get an automatically denial-mail. But there is a bug at the moment, so you get in some cases NO message back = means you could not invite an other and your friend has also no option to accept after the 8 hours.

Q2: "How do i get adventures?"
There are 3 way's to get adventures: a) over the gem-shop b) the adventure seek with your explorer or scout and c) by trading with friends or other players.

PRO TIP: Use the trading channel ( /joinchat global-7 ) or the forum ( Marcetplace (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/forums/186-Market-place) ) to get info about adventure sellers. You could trade adventures like other items directly with your friends. Choose your friend, click on his avatar or name in the chat and choose trading. Then choose ITEMS in the trading window. Thats it.

Q3: "On adventures is there any benefit to taking out all of the camps?"
You will get only the XP (experience points) for defeating camps. So the benefit to taking out all of the camps is, that you will get the whole, possible XP from an adventure.

PRO TIP: But it is possible to skip some camps and get also all possible XP! If you defeat the camp leader of a sector, you will get the XP for the whole sector (inkl. the skiped camps).

Q4: "Help me! I lost some troops after the adventure finished!"
All troops assigned to a general come back with him after the adventure finished. Troops without a general come back per "Troops Transport". You could see it in your starmenu:
http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/7690/trouptransport.jpg

PRO TIP: Assign troops to empty generals before you start you're last attack. So you save time for the troop transport (90 minutes instead of 30 minutes with a general).

Q5: "What does Initiative First Strike mean?"
I copy/paste here the translated info from the german wiki for you: "The battles follow a turn-based system that is based on the life points (LP) and the loss of a unit. Once a unit has 0 LP, this is (as you can probably imagine already) dead. Which unit attacks first, depends on their initiative. A distinction is made, the following initiatives: low, medium and high. The units with the highest initiative attack first (First Strike). After one iteration of a Intiative units with 0 LP (or less) declared dead. Units of the same initiative in order to engage in the table. The individual unit types are also attacked in the same order as they appear in the table, the player or the opponent's units. Note the special position of the cavalry or guard dogs, which focuses not on the table order, but to the life points of the units."

PRO TIP:
First strike units (initiative low)are: C (cavalry)
Second strike units (initiative medium) are the most: R/M/S/E/B/LB/A
Last strike units (initiative low) are: K (cannoneer)

Q5: "What is splash damage?"
A special feature are the bosses or units with splash damage: When a unit kill is transferred, the remaining damage to the nearest unit, so as to kill a boss many units in one turn, while a unit never without surface damage more than one enemy unit can kill per round.

Q6: "What symbolized the flowers on the adventure icons?"
The colors of the "flower" in the logo reflects the approximate level of difficulty:
http://www.siedlertools.de/w/images/1/1c/Bounty-hunter2.png white = easy = lvl1-4
http://www.siedlertools.de/w/images/f/fe/Outlaws2.png green = medium = lvl4-6
http://www.siedlertools.de/w/images/f/f2/The_nords2.png blue = difficult = 6-9
http://www.siedlertools.de/w/images/6/6c/The_black_knights2.png violet = very difficult = 9

PRO TIP: A higher lvl does not automatically mean more units. Of course the higher lvl needs in the most cases more units, but for example "The Nords" need much less units as the "Son's of the veld".

Q8: "What means the player-lvl on the adventure? For example the outlaws is lvl36+ ?"
The most adventure have a player-lvl, but thats only for buying an adventure in the gem-shop. With lvl26+ you could play theoretical every adventure.

PRO TIP: It is possible that for example a lvl36+ player (who could by a lvl36 adventure like "Outlaws") gift you an adventure. Then you could NOT accept it from your mailbox if you are NOT lvl36+! Better the lvl36+ player bought it for himself and sends you the adventure with the normal trading option. So a lvl26+ player could also "buy" and play a higher lvl adventure from the gem-shop. Adventures what you find with the explorer you could play also always.

Q9: "How i could share my adventure lootspot?"

PRO TIP: Please read this tread: How to? loot spots (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/16174-How-to-loot-spots?p=173158&viewfull=1#post173158)

Q10: "How much cost a R or M?"

PRO TIP: Please read this tread: How to? troops costs (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/16247-How-to-troops-costs)

Q11: "How much is a lootspot worth?"

PRO TIP: Please read this tread: How to? worth of loot spots (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/16424-How-to-worth-of-loot-spots?p=174848&viewfull=1#post174848)

Not sure but isn't something like 100 R and 100 M cheaper to make for croaker? Soldiers are a pain :P will give 40-50 R dead

As you all know im new to these sort of games, but how is making 110 R and 100 M cheaper than making just 1 soldier ? or am i missing something, cheers

Well i read it as, you only use 1 soldier, then his reply is "Not sure but isn't something like 100 R and 100 M cheaper to make for croaker? Soldiers are a pain :P" so he saying making 1 soldier is a pain ? and im saying making 100R and 100M is alot harder and longer than making just 1 soldier, i think im getting confused somewhere thats all :)

SidV used 50R 150S on Croaker. so what i asked was in replacement of those units. not 1 soldier.

Ah silly me, your correct and i am wrong, i only saw the 1 S he used on the previous camp, missed the 150 S camp, DOH

Big thank's for over 4000 visits since 17.12. :) ... this thread is now one of the most visited in this forum ^^ ... cool.
So i think i'm on the right way and will add some more adventures.

Today i added the tactical map for the adventure horseback (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/15207-SidV-s-adventure-journal?p=167937&viewfull=1#post167937). I hope all entries are right. Please check it also with the fight sim and inform me if you found a mistake.

Next would be the tactical map for the adventure "Stealing From The Rich"

Great Day to everybody!

Nice updated guides here, since i last read this post (-:

I see though that in the tactics maps, you never skip camps by blocking them with a second army. It would be nice to show the possible extra skips for people who don't know what extra you can skip. For instance in traitors you can skip camp 7 and either 9 or 10.

Yeap Dilbe ... i dont block camps in the most cases at the moment, because it's insecure with all the serverlags. But maybe i will post a 2nd tactic map with the blocking method in the future.

I did this with 127R 56M 17S resulting in 61R loss. i rather have 30 more recruits dead then a general :D.

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.

SidV

How to read the garrison settings?

1: ... means is the 1st wave
2: ... means the 2nd wave
3: ... means the 3rd wave and so on :)
70R or 200R or 130R 70S ... means the garrison settings for 1 general
(390R) ... in the brakets () i write the maximum would you could lose on this camp.
Hope its now a litte bit clearer.

There many way's to do an adventure. You could in the most cases use R instead of other troops, also by Witch of the Swamp. How many R you will lose more simulate please by yourself with the combat sim (http://hallophp.de/dso_kampfsimulator/en/) Daytrader.

Hey Sid, love the guides, just wanna ask a quick question.

How do you produce units quick enough for all of this or are you limited to a few days between adventures? I'm currently lvl 24 and struggle to produce enough units for Medium camps in 2 days, am I doing something wrong or is it just a slower process at this level?

Hi Rogan, thx mate... i produce bread and buy tons of bread. And of course its a big difference between lvl24 and lvl38. You will see, when you reach lvl30 it's sure easier to get more troops as now.

Hi there!

"The Nords" is on of the best XP-adventure (up to 27530XP possible). But in some cases the adventure is a little bit tricky, because you have to pull back your general after defeating some camps. In some cases (when server full or internet connection is bad) it could be that the pull back would not work. But mostly it will work fine :) and you could so save many of your troops.

Regarding The Island Of Pirates

I noticed by KillerCore useing M instead of S, he lost even less, strange as you would/should think S would be alot stronger ? just as well use M instead of S as there like 10 times quicker to produce as well for me, and loads cheaper to produce, strange.

Different garrison setup from other players:
KillerCore used M instead of S

OH: and do we attack camp 8 before W1 ?

And SidV, what is your population at, mine is 730 but i think i need more.

Hi Daytrader,

1) In every of my settings i wrote the absolute maximum of losses, proofed with the simulator. In the most cases you will lose less.
2) With KillerCore's setup you will lose 593R (but i'm not sure if that's really the max loses) ... in my setup you will lose 590R (rounded up losses, 586 was the true value).
3) Both troops have the same damage M and R (20-40), but S have a bit more accuracy 85% (M has 80%) ... thats of course not much, but better than nothing :)
3) The main reason why i use S instead of M is ... i have always 200S on storage and i use them only if i know i don't lose them.

4) Camp 8 would be automatically attacked first, if you attack W1. So you lose a bit less as when you attack W1 (and intercepted to Camp 8). So i prefer to attack W1 first.

5) at the moment my pop is exactly 2000 ^^

BTW: There are soo many garrison settings possible, i wrote here only settings they fit best to me. But feel free to post you're personal settings or tactical maps here as KillerCores has done it. I will link it then to the maininfo.

Hope you're Q's are cleared ^^
See Yu,
SidV

Thank you SidV, answered all my questions perfectly, so far i have been following all your garrison settings, and they all work spot on for me, cheers, i did not know M and S gave the same damage, also 2000 population WOW, i thought i had alot, think im going to build a few more Noble's, but i only have 20 licences left and not sure how many i need, i have 16 noble's so far, level 3 and lvl 2, how many Nobles do you have, or are alot of your lvl4 or 5 ? cheers

Hi Daytrader :) ... i dont know how many nobles i have... but try to buy some noble res deeds from moneyplayers (they need no building lincences) with coins. You could ask for them in the global-7 or here in the forum (market). BTW lvl4 is a waste ... because you will get 100% 3 noble deeds for the 1000 coins ^^
I upgrade nobles only to lvl3

Daytrader

17.01.12, 01:24

Cheers, never thought of the noble res deeds, i knew you could buy them with gems, must admit i have never seen them come up in the trade window before.

Hi there :) i redesigned and updated today the tactical map for the adventure "The Island Of The Pirates (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/15207-SidV-s-adventure-journal?p=167616&viewfull=1#post167616)".
I fit in the feedback from some of you and hope now it's better then the "old version" :)

He SidV, quick question.

When you talk about the 2 player adventures, is the army compostion you give per player, or is it the combined number of troops needed for the adventure?

SidV

19.01.12, 17:01

He SidV, quick question.

When you talk about the 2 player adventures, is the army compostion you give per player, or is it the combined number of troops needed for the adventure?

The garrison setup are for the whole adventure and like the way on the tactical map.
So you could share it if it's a 2 player or 3 player with others.

So on a 2 player adventure do you both get the rewards ? also can you just do the adventure on your own, cheers

If you play a 2 or 3 player alone Daytrader, you will get only 1 reward. The 2nd or 3rd would be wasted.

Daytrader

19.01.12, 18:19

Cheers, so if i done a 2 or 3 player adventure on my own, would that mean its 2 or 3 times as hard ? i mean i would need 2 or 3 times the army.

Hi folks!

"Motherly Love" is an 2 player adventure you could get only as a reward from the adventure "Island Of The Pirates (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/15207-SidV-s-adventure-journal?p=167616&viewfull=1#post167616)". Of course you need really much cavalry for this adventure (350C are the losses) but the reward is very nice and when you share the losses with a friend its a pretty cool adventure to get really much granite. It's also a very fast adventure. You have only a few camps to defeat and you need therefore max. one hour. Have fun and good luck with the loot!

See Yu,
SidV

Hi Kavoan,
both get one full reward (everyone must have defeated at least minimum one unit and you must have fulfilled the mission order).
Means: a reward would not be shared, but XP would be shared (you get only XP for the camps you defeated)

Hi there!

"Sons of the Veld" is for me the worst adventure here atm. Many losses (around 3200R 540C 160S) only 2 lootspots and the reward is not really attractive (no chance to get crossbows, no epic building) ... so i think it will take some time if i wana play that huge adventure and post here a tactical map therefore. Its a bit waste of time for me :)

Hi there!

Victor the Vicious is a great adventure when you need some new crossbows ^^
There is a chance of 33% to get some and thats pretty good. If you swap the 2 other lootspots with friends you have so 6 times the chance to get some of these great crossbows :) (3x 2 weaponslots = 6 chances)

Have fun with this great adventure!

Hi there!

Maybe you will think... where is the tactical map? ;) reason is... its to hard to play atm for me and i will only post tactical maps from adventures i've played here already. You need therefore around 6500R 3500R and some of the other troops too ^^ so its not really an attractive adventure atm for me.

Hi Sidv, regarding "the dark priests" camp 10) 30 Dark Priest, 40 Cultist, 20 Shadowsneaker, 1 Swamp Witch.
I used 95rec, 4militia, 1soldier, 50 cav, 50 LB (loss 95rec 4 militia, 13cav max) personally i think its a better option than those listed.

Hi Shandas, thx for the info... but after i simulate it (500 times) i saw there's a chance to lose all units in the worst case. So it's not a option for me.
Here FYI the Link to the Fight Simulation. (http://hallophp.de/dso_kampfsimulator/en/?r=95&m=4&c=50&lb=50&s=1&u_1928=40&u_1927=1&u_1929=20&u_1931=30&adventure_id=2)

I still think there are more ways to block camps

Shandas

Those 2 camps are so close that if you make even a small error you will end up attacking the wrong camp (happend to me on wild mary, lost 200cav)

Just a note my explorer just found the Outlaws adventure, i am lvl 32 and it seems i can play it if i wanted, is that right ? as i thought you had to be lvl 36 ? cheers

Also, on the 2 player adventures, where you list units needed, is that for each player or total to split between both of you, thx

Hi Daytrader ... i think i had answered this questions from you now the 3rd time... but okay once again:
Yes, you can play every adventure after lvl26 ... (lvl36 is only for buying in the shop or if you get a gift)
And of course, all my garrison settings are the minimum needed units to play the whole adventure. If you played it with a second you could split some units.

W1 is a hidden Trap... move the cursor over the spot and you will find it. Otherwise attack camp8 if you don't find it ^^

Well i attacked camp 8 1st with 70R 130S, and on the way back i was attacked by W1, and still beat both camps with only 70R loss, i would have thought i would have loss after being intercepted ?, as i thought i needed 70R 130S for each camp.

I really like this guide, all the calculations and so on worked on me. But sometimes I use more Recruits and less other units.
Easy to follow guide and any1 could understand the adventures much much better..

Yesterday finished "Old Friend" ,it was tiny map and 3 camps were skipped.

Camps: Transfered 2 general to next spot and started to attack camps in this row:
1) -
2) -
3) 3 - 115r85s(113r)
4) -
5) 1 - 50r150s(49r)
6) 2 - 1st: 185b / 2nd: 50r50s100lb(185b, 25r)
7) 4 - 115r85s (115r)
8) 5 - 1st: 110r65cav / 2nd: 110r10s80lb (220r,65cav,8s) or 1: 110R 65C 2: 48S 152LB (110R 65C 47S) or your calculates

Hi bibumo!
Thank you for your praise and feedback. It's nice to hear that my infos works for you.
I linked your garrison setup here (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/15207-SidV-s-adventure-journal?p=169223&viewfull=1#post169223). I would do a tactical map for "old friends" long ago BUT ... i dont get the adventure until now *harhar* ... so i have to wait.

Hello,

Here is a map for Old friends adventure.

A few notes:
- from Landing zone you just transfer your general to position G1
- the minimum S you need for camp 8 is 44 and since you have them and they do slightly more damage than M i used them as much as i can
- after clearing camp 6 you can move closer to camps 3 and than 8 if you wish
- the idea is to lose minimal number of units while maintaining only R loses.

I hope this is helpfull and you like it :)

Moin Seth and YES i like it very much :) ... big thx for your tactical map. I linked it HERE (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/15207-SidV-s-adventure-journal?p=169223&viewfull=1#post169223) under the garrison settings from other players. And will link the tactical map too.

Moin Jolo and big thx for the horsback info. I linked it HERE (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/15207-SidV-s-adventure-journal?p=167937&viewfull=1#post167937)
BTW the reason why i dont use mostly 200R instead of a R/S mix is... that there's mostly no difference in the max losses in horseback :) so i thought its easier to use only R. But it's a very good thing, if somebody has not enough R, so he could mix it easy.

Thx and see yu,
SidV

Jolo

04.02.12, 12:39

The only reason why I did not use so many R is becasue simply I would not be able to make them in one go and since I have 200S so I thought I could use them. Also I am not using 160LB just 60LB.

Hello SidV,

There is a mistake in the tactical map of Stealing from the rich: camp 20 is marked as 40 D. Militia, 40 D. Cavalry, 1 Sir Robin, but in reality it's 40 D.Militia, 40 D. Longbowman, 1 Sir Robin.

The comp i did there is 119R, 74M, 7S with 111R loses. With this comp if you take max damage you can lose M but i didn't want to wait :)

You get always in the end of every adventure the XP and the loot. To get a loot you have to complete the mission briefing successfully. If you dont complete the mission you get no reward. XP counts for each defeated camp.

No, in transfer mode your troops are safe.

Hi SidV,

Thanks for the great adventure journal - I've just found Horseback and I wanted to use your guide, looking at your tactical map - am I correct in assuming the camps with black numbers (with no troop numbers on the list) are left un-attacked??

Where it says landing zone - is that where you enter the map?? as it looks like all the attacking is done from left to right?

Sorry I just want to make sure I understand it correctly so I can be best prepared for it as I didn't complete the last adventure (witch of the swamp) I tried on my own and feel it was such a waste if you know what I mean (I went too quickly and was not well enough prepared).

Hi Drangons_Breath and thx ;)

- yes black numbers are skiped camps
- yes landing zone is where you arrived first with your troops
- yes first attack from the left in order of the garrison settings on the tactical map

and yes i know the feeling to go unprepared into a new adventure *gg* ;) ... have fun and good luck with the loot!

See Yu,
SidV

Daytrader... the XP are always for the whole adventure... of course if you share the camps with a 2nd or 3rd player you share also the XP. You will get only the XP for the camps you defeated with your general :)

Hope its now a bit clearer ^^

Daytrader... the XP are always for the whole adventure... of course if you share the camps with a 2nd or 3rd player you share also the XP. You will get only the XP for the camps you defeated with your general :)

Hope its now a bit clearer ^^

So if i just take out camps that you have high lighted 5 to 13 and 15 i will get max XP ?, cheers

If you play it alone then yes, but then you waste the 2nd loot.

- yes landing zone is where you arrived first with your troops
- yes first attack from the left in order of the garrison settings on the tactical map

and yes i know the feeling to go unprepared into a new adventure *gg* ;) ... have fun and good luck with the loot!

at times it seems hard to either find people to do a joint map together or to find someone interested in the loot- in a fair exchange- At which time the extra effort/aggravation and frustration isnt worth it and you just kill it alone ) Guess 2d lootslot is just like trade- People have unrealistic expectations in their own favor (the latest one- xmas gifts for 40of gold coin- value of a gift: 1 gold coin :P)

Hi Qualan
Before i play a multiplayer alone and waste the 2nd spot ... i would gift the 2nd spot a friend ^^ or a guild member.
But normally you get enough offers from others in the global-7 when you post there your lootspot.

Thanks SidV, I have just killed 1,2,6,7,8,9,10 and 20 and was waiting on troops and i was checking my routes and saw the other green area and just decided to try it and yes it works. I was missing that very vital piece of information. What a muppet I am :o - I just didn't realise, thank you again we live and learn don't we!
I just hope I can recruit enough troops in time to complete it now.

Hi SidV I really like your adventure guide.

Although everything documented very well I missed a camp during the Witch of the Swamp adventure. So I got intercepted. I wanted to take camp 9 but I forgot camp 8. So only my blame.

Because soldiers are hard to get and very expensive, I could not rebuild them in time. So I started to sim on camp 9 if I could take it with another army composition.

Your garison settings:
9) 40 Cultist, 120 Shadowsneaker, 1 Dark High Priest [50R 150S (50R 24S)]

My garison settings:
9) 40 Cultist, 120 Shadowsneaker, 1 Dark High Priest [50R 125S 25M (50R 7S 25M)]

Although I lose 8 more people, I saved 17 soldiers. Maybe something to consider as an alternative?

Hi michael0221,

normally you should see the images without any registration or anything. In some few cases (1-2 user had the problem that they dont see the pictures) you have to register there 1 times with any e-mailadress. After then you should see also all pictures.

If you have further problems, send me please ingame a message.

Sometimes you didn't put the down information of how many troops you should send in or how many do you lose!
What does that mean?

Suparatu

14.02.12, 17:02

i think he skips those camps. thats why is nothing there.

But if you skip them, are you gonna take the experience for them at the end of the adventure? sort of the way you get the experience on your home island when you kill a leader?
i ask this because some of the camps are weak and can be killed with cavalery without any loses. Do you get the experience for them at the end anyway?

and yes the walkthrough is awsome, Congratz

Sid,

Nice job,

Just looking at the Motherly Love map and I think you have an error on the R/LB side - Total LB needed = 125?? is it not 75?? Only 75 used in one battle so it looks like just a copy/paste/typo from box 1 but just I'd ask?

Hi there :)

during the maintenance i updated the adventure "The Dark Priest (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/15207-SidV-s-adventure-journal?p=167919&viewfull=1#post167919)" today with the new design. I recalculated and checked all 3 versions again and i found a interesting thing ;) ... I thought in the past, to use some S instead of R would help to save some R ... but nope. Same losses. So there is for me no more reason, to use S in "The Dark Priest" and you could use so 1 general for other things.

Hope you like the new tactical map design. I think its now easier to read as before.
Wish you a great day!

19) 60 Nomad, 75 Riding Bowman [100R 100S (98R)]

The max losses are 100R 5S ... so they 2 players lose 4 times 1S with your setting ^^
Thats why i always post max loses ^^...

Well, i just stated to try to find adventures and after NINE attempts, i do have 27 map fragments and no adventures. I was lucky enough to be able to spend some gems on buying an extra explorer, but if I was a player without gems I would have been bored to death after nine days doing nothing. Not even planning ahead to built up your troops isn't really that much fun, if you no idea what to do next. (

Also be noted that the first map-bought adventure will start at level 36. On the test server there are adventures possible with level 33 BUT the costs in maps in horrible. 100 map fragments? Yeah right

Hi Mystic,
yeap sometimes its really hard to get luck with the adventure seek. But you had really bad luck.
I got also the last 3 days nothing... and then 3 adventures at once ^^ for example. So dont give up ;)

Hi SidV i have some tips for your Outlaws Tactical map
on the east side of the map you atack camp 9 and lose max 60R but there are 2 ways too make it less
first the safe one is too atack camps 23,24,25 you will loose here max 44R
23. 80 Scavenger [22R 1S 177C (16-22R)]
24. 80 Scavenger [22R 1S 177C (16-22R)]
25. 80 Stone Thrower [200C (0C)]
And the harder one is too atack camp 8 and than block camp 9 and atack the leader camp max units lost 19R
8. 60 Scavenger, 60 Stone Thrower [19R 1S 179C (15-19R)]

"Outlaws"
Leader Camp nr 15

15. 1 One-Eyed Bert, 180 Thug [1: 50R 150B 2: 90R 110LB (132R 150B)] >>>normal atack
15. 1 One-Eyed Bert, 180 Thug [1: 160R 40B 2: 67R 1S 132LB (227R 40B)]>>>my atack
i think its worth adding since bows take longer too make and with this atack you loose minimm 15 settlers less

Its a short, tiny infobox about the sending information to an adventure. So you could see at once, how many generals you need, and what you should send with him to do the adventure. I will update also the tactical maps with this tiny infoboxes too in the next time. But first i will upload a new tactical map for "The Black Knights" (a LB-Version).

BTW: "Island of the Pirates (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/15207-SidV-s-adventure-journal?p=167616&viewfull=1#post167616)" is the first adventure with the infoboxes, next will follow soon.

Could u write a little about how to block camps? and put a link in the fist post?

I like to know how i need to block camps, when does a block work, when do i need to sent the second general to bypass the block, how many seconds does the block work?

Mabye its worth an separate topic?

Hi there,
Yeap true... its worth a separate topic, and yes i will write some words about it ^^

When will you do Secluded experiments? I'm quite interested in how much it needs as it's a map fragment adventure. :)

Secluded experiments is on of the last on my list because i want post only tactical maps from adventures i've played here ^^
And there are 3 (secluded experiments, brotherhood and sons of the veld) who are a "bit" hard to play ^^
BTW yeap its a fragments adventure, but only buyable with lvl46 ^^ and there's a long way to that lvl atm :))

But i will upgrade the infos about the losses/needs soon, and tactical maps follow then later.

So any idea about that? i will prepare troops again while waiting for your help .Thanks

Hi the camp has normal:
1 chuck 60 ranger 70 roughnecks 50 guard dogs

so the settings should be:

only problem is that you need 170b in your version, our version you need only 130lbs and looses are still same if you watch last camp.

Not sure its called a problem, but i agree with you regarding using 30R-40C-130LB on the last fight. So i edited my map. :)

Why bring 200 Cav, when u can do camp 2 with 194 ? ;)

Your losses on camp 10, is that max or your losses?

You are right, i dont know yet is 170lb problem or not. I need to go other adventures and test methods. Let say It can bee problem, if you only need 130, 140, 150, or 160 lbs in max, and you never need 170lbs, so you have 40,30,20 or 10lbs extra, that you never use.

I tested with 200cav, if you can win it with 194c, i try test that too.
Like SidV typed in my map, that this is our loses when we completed this. You can loose more or less.

Hi There,

big thx to Killste & Tibster for your cool tactical maps. I put them as "different garrison settings from other players" into the mainthread from Priest > HERE (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/15207-SidV-s-adventure-journal?p=167919&viewfull=1#post167919)

Have we got any more on Secluded Experiments?

Hi SirRoy, Secluded Experiments, Brotherhood are bit to hard to play atm for me (Brotherhood around 1000C losses and so on ^^) and Sons of the Veld is a crap adventure (my opinion). But you have of course right i will upgrade the "basic" infos as soon as possible.

EDITED: wrote now a bit more about the adventure in the infotext ^^

See Yu,

Why did you remove all the units you need for each camp at some adventures.
For example; at horseback you don't have [50r,20lb] anymore. Why is that?

Hi Yosika, because i upload more different versions to one adventure. The right garrison settings are now directly in the tactical map.

Great thread SidV, plenty of details and different ways to do each adventure.

However I have a question about the Horseback adventure too.
I checked the regular tactical map (cause i have never done an adventure before, i wont attempt the blocking one for now) to check for the setups for each camp, but not all setups are there, only for about half the camps. Any reason why you didnt put up setups for the other camps?

Im new to adventures and i havent done any yet, so please forgive any noobish questions.

Hope you dont mind me awnsering this:
As soon as you kill the bandit leader camp the camps of that sector dissapear like on your island.
So its only need to destroy camps between you and the leaders, and the leader camps themselfs.

Stealing from the rich
type:
Tactical map & garrison seetings (R/S/LB-Version)
Units need: 1100R 200S 200C 40LB (or 40A)
Units lost max: 1043R
camp 8 is wrong. if yu send 110 S and 90R you safe 16R, please change it.

Hi wafje,
i checked your settings, here the results:
yours: 90R 110S > losses min: 47R ... losses max: 90R 5S
mine: 99R 101S > losses min: 51R ... losses max: 99R 1S (but the 1S is very unrealistic in this case)

but thanks for the feedback ;) i found out 100R 100S would be a bit better and i will change them with the next update.
100R 100S > losses min: 48R ... losses max: 100R

If you only take Soldiers to "Witch of the Swamp" instead any militia, then you only lose 4 soldiers against the Swamp Witch instead of 33 militia. Thus saving 29 population and reducing overall losses.

Thank you tierarzt for your feedback. The prob is, in the worst case, i could lose 22S when i use S instead of M (both are max losses) .. 4 soldiers is more best case. So in the average the losses are with M or S (and also E) the same.

But i will recalc it with A and will try it then also with your S variant :) thx

there is a typing error in victor the vicious (R/B/LB Version) camp 19c where it says the max lose is 84 S and 105 LB, but you would only lose the 92 soldiers max

My run of The witch of the Swamp:
I tried to save the expensive units and sacrifice more recruits since my bronze industry is better than the rest.
Overall: 551R 19M 124S 200C 52 LB (540R 9M 75C)
The number of recruits i used for the battles is also the maximum number of losses possible, when i got lower values i was just lucky.

1) 40 Cultist [200C (0)]
2) 50 Cultist [6R 190C (4R)]
3) 40 Cultist, 40 Fanatic [10R 1S 189C (10R)]
4) 60 Cultist [10R 1S 189C (9R)]
5) 40 Dark Priest, 60 Shadowsneaker [44R 124S (43R)]
6) 33 Cultist, 33 Dark Priest, 33 Shadowsneaker [51 R 124 S (51R)]
7) 120 Cultist [54R 76C 70S (51R)]
8) 60 Dark Priest, 80 Cultist [51R 5S 144C (47R)]
9) 40 Cultist, 120 Shadowsneaker, 1 Dark High Priest [110R 12M 78S (110R 7 M)]
10) 99 Dark Priest, 100 Cultist, 1 Swamp Witch [1. 125R 75C 2. 90R 7M 1S 50C 52LB (215R 75C 2M)]

Hi, I have a question, maybe stupid one. If I need, for example, over 900 settlers for adventure, is there another way to take them than buying 5 generals? Maybe I can transport only my units and then assign them to existing general?

Hi Arnika, you could transport with 1 general 200 troops to the adventure. Put then there the 200 on the map and send back the empty general to your homemap.
I hope that was the answer you seek ^^

BTW I have also only 4 normal generals from the tavern. You could play with them all adventures :)

SidV, are you working on new configurations incorporating the 250 troop capacity of the Veteran General.
I love your guide and do not envy all the work you have ahead of you.

Hi SirRoy :) not atm ... but i will upload step by step for the important adventures then a V-Version (veteran version) ;) ... because i will use the guy then also. But i have no hurry to do that ^^

Hi Sid, I've just made 2 run-throughs of Witches of the Swamp, and maximum losses for Camps 3 and 6 were slightly higher. Camp3, I have lost 10R the 1st time, and 11R the 2nd time, and Camp6, my maximum loss was 52R, so maybe the maximums for these should be 11R for Camp 3, and 52R for Camp 6?
I must be very lucky in the final battle, as both times my maximum Militia loss was only 12! :)
Keep up the good work.
