The challenges start to ramp up in terms of Wolf Castle strength with the introduction of Wolf Castle #5. Don’t let the small size of this castle fool you; it’s perfectly capable of wiping out an army of 500 troops if you set the attack up poorly.
The Wolf’s diverse array of defenses means you need to keep an eye out for the unseen as this fully bolstered castle features Tunnel Peasants, Boiling Oil, Sally Forth Knights, and Invisible Killing Pits. Beware!
| Scouts needed to get castle report | 3+ |
| AI castle Sally forth | Yes (4 Knights) |
| Armed Peasants emitted from Tunnel | 30 |
| Armed Peasant tunnel location | Lower-Left Corner (Southwest) |
| Killing Pits | Yes |
Setup
Here you have the basic “attack for honor” setup; Archers surrounding the castle to kill off the enemy Archers stationed in the towers. The Catapults have been targeted just beyond the Gatehouse nearest The Wolf’s Keep and are placed to gain frontal access to said Keep. Just behind the Catapults; Archers and a few Pikemen have been placed around the “invisible” Armed Peasant Tunnel to prevent those pesky Peasants from destroying our valuable Catapults.
Result
As far as attacks for honor go, this is about as good as it gets. I only lost 107 Archers and 85 Pikemen and my Catapults were left untouched.
