Re: Stuck on Delfador's Memoirs: The Return of Trouble

Success! Finally. I'm attaching the replay. I noticed that the shyde did not appear at the end in my version and is also absent in the next scenario.

Re: Stuck on Delfador's Memoirs: The Return of Trouble

Just tried again. I had only the green orc leader left, but ran out of turns. I figure I was about 2-3 turns from having his head. Unfortunately, my ally did not survive--he tried a suicide attack on the purple orc leader at night. At the end, I had 1 level 1 shamen, 1 level 2 druid, 2 level 2 heros...

Re: Stuck on Delfador's Memoirs: The Return of Trouble

It wasn't the 200 gold that was killing me, really. It was the fact that I could only recruit lvl 1 units whereas the orcs could recruit lvl 2 units. Without that disparity, the level would have been winnable, IMO.

Re: Stuck on Delfador's Memoirs: The Return of Trouble

The version I did it in (0.10) only gave you 200 gold. Additionally, the orcs could recruit lvl 2 units whereas I was limited to lvl 1 units. It took me 15 turns to hack through to the first orc leader. By then, the hordes from the other two arrived to finish off my wounded and shamens. I replayed t...

Re: Stuck on Delfador's Memoirs: The Return of Trouble

That will help immensely. When will the new version be available?

Stuck on Delfador's Memoirs: The Return of Trouble

Any one have hints on how to get past this level? I'm playing version 0.10 on medium difficulty. My first impression was to place archers and fighters (only lvl 1s available in this scenario) in the forest and go after the northeastern orc before dealing with the other two. However, my forces got ch...

Re: Stuck on HttT The valley of death

The way I did it on medium difficulty was to send a lvl 3 grand knight and a lvl 2 knight to the holy water, recruited four lvl 1 mermen to keep the southwestern forces busy (backed up by the lvl 2 knight, then sent Konrad, Delfador, a grand champion, a pair of lvl 2 rangers, two lvl 2 white mages, ...

Thanks for correcting my mistake. At least I got it right on the step-by-step instructions.

One clarification on step 5: Drag-and-drop the new version of scenario-utils.cfg from your desktop (or wherever downloaded files go on your system) into the macros folder.

Where do I find scenario-utils.cfg in Mac OS?

I've downloaded the scenario-utils.cfg file, but am unable to use it. Biggest problem? Where does it go? Zookeeper's instructions are for Windows and Macs do not have the same file structure. Any Mac users out there know what to do with the new version of scenario-utils.cfg? Edit: I've already searc...

Liberty: Glory does not end when supports are destroyed

I can't find my original post on this back in November, 2007. This was supposedly fixed back then. However, I've got the same problem now after I downloaded 1.2.13. After I destroy the supports, the scenario does not end. Instead, it goes through to the end, then announces that I was defeated. Any i...

I just reread your post. I'm playing Wesnoth 1.2.6, with the Sceptre of Fire campaign version 1.0.2.

Interesting because I just downloaded it from the campaign server two days ago. Maybe the Mac version is way out of date?

Outriding the outriders

I'm stuck on the outriding the outriders scenario. I've read several posts that spearmen come to help when you reach a village. No such aid comes when I enter a village. Because of that lack of help, Alanin is usually dead by my second turn (he's only survived to my third turn once). I'm one of thos...
