![]() ![]() The walkthrough presented below is about as cheap as it gets without the use of Swordsmen. I spent more time than I like to admit trying the best combination to remove this castle at the lowest cost. Regardless, don’t get greedy and try to destroy both Great Towers else you might end up not removing either which makes the attack much more costly. In future attacks I recommend targeting those fringe Catapults at the center of the castle as per usual or you could even consider removing twelve of the total Catapults altogether. ![]() In setting up the Catapults I tried something new and targeted the Wolf’s Turrets, this idea ultimately failed as you can see in the result and despite the fact that I had around twelve Catapults firing on the Turrets, the Turrets remained intact. As I noted previously, this attack on The Wolf is the first so far in this walkthrough series which does not concentrate on attacking for the sake of Honor generation, opting instead for a quick removal of this Wolf castle in a single attack A frontal attack on this keep is best because there is much less moat to remove which means fewer causalities to our attack force and a much faster route to the Keep. Here we have the classic assault setup with Pikemen out in front with the Catapults behind and Archers along the rear and sides to protect the Catapults from Tunnel Armed Peasants and Sally-forth Knights. This design looks pretty harmless on the surface but all the bare spots in the castle are filled with Killing Pits. The Wolf Castle #6 design is the first Wolf Castle walkthrough which I make the transition from attacks focused on Honor generation to attacks more focused on quick removal of the castle at the lowest cost possible. By the time my Archers remove all opposing forces my Catapults will have had plenty of time to clear an opening to The Wolf’s Keep. Set up three or four preliminary Pikemen behind the white line to trip the oil pots before your main force arrives, the majority of your Archers should be grouped around the manned enemy towers, extras complete the 360 encirclement. The vast majority will be outside the range of The Wolf’s garrisoned Archers and I also placed an extra 75 of my Archers around the Catapults to kill off The Wolf’s Sally Forth Knights and Swordsmen which are set to the aggressive stance. ![]() ![]() In this setup I placed the Catapults in the bottom-right corner to target them at the Keep. This is arguably the most common Wolf castle next to Wolf Castle 11, it can vary greatly and if the average playerbase is low in any given parish this is the Wolf castle that usually appears. Wolf Castle 3 commonly comes in two different strengths but for the purpose of this tutorial we will only focus on the first and easiest, the design I like to call Wolf Castle #3. If you are having difficulty setting up your attacks take a peek at the in depth Wolf Castle Walkthroughs I've done over at Stronghold Kingdoms Strategy. I apologize for the fact that none of the videos show me setting up the attacks but at the time of recording the idea to include setup footage had simply slipped my mind. The following Walkthrough is comprehensive, it features all 11 of the Wolf Castle designs in addition there are links below each to their corresponding YouTube Video so you can watch along if you are stumped. Whether attacking or defending, The Wolf’s troop’s hit points are upgraded to 150%, making them the strongest troops used by any NPC in the game. By contrast, The Wolf’s ransack attack if nigh impossible to successfully defend against without help of oil pots around the perimeter of your castle. His Pillage attacks are easily enough defended against providing your castle is built all the way out to the white line, manned with at least 200 troops, and your vaults research is maxed. The Wolf’s attacks will come in either of two forms, Pillage or Ransack. His presence is visually represented on the game map by a small red tower icon, which will display a grey & black coat of arms with a wolf’s head when placing your cursor over it. The Wolf will appear in parishes at random intervals same as all other AIs, being more likely to appear in parishes with many high ranking players. ![]()
