Another straightforward chapter. I certainly hope the enemies don't stay this weak for long.

Hector, Matthew and Florina went west. Matthew because he needed to pilfer stuff, Hector because he needed to recruit Heath (I did it on the second turn thanks to a Sain-Florina rescue chain) and Florina because someone had to kill and gather exp.

Isadora, Canas and Oswin went east to kill Eubans ASAP. Lowen gave Isadora useful equipment for the task, and she took a much needed Angel's Robe.

Sain helped take care of a few loose knots here and there (like the rescue chain, killing a stray mage, giving the eastern side some support, etc.)

Kent and Lyn negotiated Rath's hiring. Nothing really important, but more mounted item-carriers can't hurt, right?

Isadora eventually reached Eubans and used the Hellebarde (Halberd), killing him in his turn.

The chapter ended so quickly, Matthew only had time to loot the Kriegeraxt (Warrior Axe), which will most certainly be very useful. The 10000 Gold...won't be that needed. I have so many things I can sell.

Thoughts: Welcome to the team, Isadora! Your stats are low, but I'm certain you'll be useful, you are the only one here who can use swords competently, after all. Also, Canas needs to raise that rank, staff variety can be very useful.

I would think it'd be hard just reaching Eubans in four turns, let alone dealing with the other enemies in the way and killing him once you got there.

Of course, you also have a lot more mobility than I did at that point with three mounted units and an extra two draftees.

It was all thanks to Isadora. She starts in the right place, and from there, it's just a matter of keeping her path open.

• Turn 1: Move Isadora next to the cracked wall (previously attacked by Canas), use Angel Robe. Enemies bust the wall on their turn;
• Turn 2: Oswin creates an opening in the enemy lines, Isadora approaches the eastern exit, but is blocked and needs to kill someone there;
• Turn 3: Canas, Oswin and Sain finish the enemies blocking her way. Isadora manages to reach and kill the ballista dude with a Hand Axe;
• Turn 4: Reached Eubans, Halberd kills him by hitting him once in my turn and again in his.

The trickiest part was keeping her alive (Isadora is surprisingly frail), which I did via Angel Robe and Heal staff.

In theory, it should work with any Paladin, with other supporting units, as long as said Paladin can kill Eubans in one turn. So, only Barrylocke and Alfric could potentially do this as quickly as I did.

And yes, my choice of units is probably my biggest advantage.

I was pretty careful in this chapter so it took me 3 more turns than you. Now that my units are pretty self sufficient, I need to stop bringing so many meatshields.

I took 5 more turns than you. I'm rather disappointed in how this chapter went for me, but I do have to give props for finishing this obnoxious chapter in 4 turns.
