The Crusader Trail [EP. 2] - Mission 2: Setting Out (EXTREME DIFFICULTY) SHC Definitive Edition

Surviving the Fire and Building an Iron Economy! Welcome back to LzTactics. In Episode 2 of the Crusader Trail on Extreme Difficulty, we are taking on Mission 2 against The Caliph. The Strategy: Unlike the first mission, rushing right out of the gate is a death sentence here. The Caliph’s castle is surrounded by pitch ditches that will instantly melt your army. Instead, we are taking advantage of the map to build a massive Iron Mine economy. Food is scarce, so we are relying on the auto-market and Inns to keep our popularity high while we fund our siege. In this video: Kickstarting a fast Iron-based economy. Building the perfect tower defense to stop the Caliph's Slave rush. Using Portable Shields and Crossbows to safely clear enemy towers. The Imperfect Triumph: A tactical victory, even after losing my melee troops to a pitch ditch trap!
