Decided I wanted to give Secluded Experiments a go. Why? Well, because. It's a game and I fancied the challenge of tackling an adventure myself without a guide to lead me.
I kept track of every fight I did and here's my rough guide to completing Secluded Experiments as a Google Docs spreadsheet.

It assumes you have a veteran general and 100 Elite soldiers. You need at least two other normal generals.
Camp numbers are taken from http://www.settlersonlinetools.com/en/combat_simulator/
It mostly makes use of 1R blocks, but there is one timed block on the far right of the map (camps 41/42).
The blocks are mostly explained in terms of distance between block and attack rather than spoon-feeding you locations on the assumption that if you're even thinking of attempting this adventure, you know what you're doing. However, I've included an image for one particularly complicated block.
You can use bows on some of the camps, but I largely decided to stick with recruits. Attacking every camp would take almost 10,000 recruits, so my guide keeps track of where troops have been saved thanks to the blocks.
Troops lost = 5969R, 286B, 90M, 50C, 190LB
Troops saved = 3581R
Disclaimer: I've only done this adventure once and don't plan to do it again soon, so none of the attacks or blocks have been double checked :)
For example, one of the blocks actually failed, as I've explained in the guide, but I think it SHOULD work.
