Sell your iron for money and make sure you have lots of archers defending your farms from constant slave attacks: crossbowmen shoot too slowly. Place square towers all along the north edge of your castle and equip them with ballistae, about 6 or 8 will do.

Put iron mines on every spot of iron there is south of you, and remember: an iron mine only needs 4 squares of iron to build on, so try and use this to place as many as you can in a limited space. If you get a good hold on your defences, then you will be safe and won't suffer as much from enemy attcks.Ī fairly hard level, but you are allied with the Lionheart, so there are some advantages. And don't be afraid to spend 2000+ gold on soldiers at the beginning of hard levels. If you have stone, there isn't much you can with it, so sell it.

To make the most of your limited resources, turn your wood into crossbows, then sell them, turn your iron into metal armour(is made quicker than swords or maces), and sell them. Some levels are indeed very hard, and this is mainly because there is little or no resources near you.
