The only strategy that worked for me in Serpentholm 2 (Serpent Path)
This mission has tested my patience, one I thought I'd never be so frustrated at lol.
What happened:
- Tried rushing Wolf in the north, didn't work for me.
- Tried rushing the Dragon in the south, same result.
- I ought to just build my base on the Serpentholm plateau, and it gave me a bit of room to sort things out.
What I noticed is that around 8-10 minutes (I think) into the game when I already have a few buildings on the plateau, Shinja and co. came in. I honestly thought it would be much later.
Key points:
- Peasant Hut on the rice was attacked at first. Luckily I stacked up enough rice to build another hut still on that same spot. I had to wait for some Dragon soldiers there to leave that little location.
- I noticed in BR, the enemy will attack you aggressively at first, but once you have survived for longer, it'll lessen. I think their AI has detected I only have a base on the plateau and never bothered to wander around to find my Peasant Hut and Keep.
- I put all units around the Watchtowers on N hotkey so that they'll never leave their place. Fan Geisha on towers and Musketeers with Sniper Scope.
This was the only way I could get through this mission lol. Rushing ain't it for me.
This might be nearly as hard as the final mission in the Dragon Path.
