Sorry, I'm on the elves turn 6 right now. Its taking forever. Possibly the worst. I have 8 AM class in 15 minutes so it'll be another 2 hours before I can finish it and upload the save.

Lets go with yours I am on turn 5 for elves and lets just say I wasn't saving alot of lives . . . (all three of us were dead)
Ouch.
 Did I set things up that badly?  Maybe I should have kept everyone huddled in our keeps, but unless we put some pressure on the orcs they would send all their free troops after the dwarves and kill Hamel.  As long as the chosen four remain alive, I guess a victory is a victory. But.... 
Okay, this was pretty terrible, though from what you said F&I, maybe I did okay? I ended up losing 3 fugitives, 1 huntsman, 1 highwayman, one loyal lvl 3 dwarf, a griffin, and a ton of thugs. Also after I sent the cleric up to help heal the undead, they killed the cleric at home so he teleported to the undead too.
 First turn I thought, "well with this thin ass line we're gonna get massacred." So I actually attacked the closest enemies and killed few. On the orc turn (which took forever) they got hugely lucky hits on the fugitives and killed one and were able to trap some other units. Then the undead got MASSACRED I mean all of those units were too close to the orcs. The mages were getting destroyed. Dwarves, well I just let the game do its moves in peace I don't even know what happened. When I got the Undead turn I pulled everything back to the hills for 50% def. I also recruited a wave of cannon fodder in the form of troll whelps... but I realized on the next turn I should just recruit bigger trolls because they're all cannon fodder anyway. Anyway they pulled back and are sort of holding their own now on higher ground. The elves I recruited and stationed along the tree line. They're gonna be huge. On my next turn I retreated. Bruindane says "Uh we should siege them. There is too many pouring out to face head on." And I say, "duh." I recall whatever we have left and recruit all thugs from here out. Cannon fodder basically but we can't recruit much else. The griffins suck to and get destroyed by crossbows. I played it over 2 days. It took forever for all the orc units to move and it took forever to move all of our units. I gave up halfway wthrough and had to come back to it because I was so frustrated. The whole thing is an exercise in beating yourself over the head.

Yep you did better then I did although I did have some pretty god awful rolls. Ya I was having troubles in the north and east(west?) it was us and troll guy. elves I acualy had destroying the orcs and trolls killing everyone they could reach. Ya the dwarfs . . . how the hell are they winning was my recation. haphazard1 Wrote:Ouch. Yeah no sweat. It's just the troll/orc guys are too much. It was slightly unbelievable. PLUS it was night time. I'm really afraid of our main force getting wiped out.

Sounds very nasty.
We do have huge amounts of money, so we can just keep recruiting and recruiting and recruiting. The orc/troll waves won't last forever, although then we will need to start luring the level 3 wall guards out a few at a time. The recruitment choices for the lich are certainly bad. Ogres and trolls with no ranged attacks -- easy prey for the ranged orcs and trolls. Or mages who get smashed by melee.The elves had far better recruitment options...so of course they have much less money to do so. But they should do pretty well.Hamel has a big base income, plus some villages. Hopefully he can hold out. And us...sorry to hear about the white mages both ending up with the lich. Not what I intended. And our entire recall list isn't nearly as big as it seemed on earlier levels, with so much ground to defend.Losses are going to be heavy, I am afraid. Just guard the key figures and keep recruiting. I can't think of anything else to suggest.
