Mission 4: Siege | Imperial Campaign: Act I Warhammer MOC Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Before I will pass to describing the attack on the fortress I will say about the small quest which we can make before. Once you reach crossroads you can move east where the blockade prepared by Orcs is. This time you don't have to slay all greenskins, but only their boss. It is good to mount Stefan before this duel. The fight is not difficult, and my hero received 12th level. I decided to spend the captured point on the further development of deadly strike.
I moved north after the victorious duel. Before the proper battle the game asks us to choose army which we will take to part in the battle. It is good to rely on her recommendation and leave the cavalry in the camp, it is not suitable to the assault of the fortress. Besides, you'd better equip your regiments with kegs of powder and ladders to climbing on walls worth. When we are ready, we can deploy our troops.
After looking on the visible part of the battlefield one can notice two paths leading to the castle, eastern and western. Cannons and regiment of greatswords stand near the first. We place archers nearby and the rest of units as far to the left as we can. End of deployment phase.
We take main forces and go ahead, straight on the gate of the hostile fortress, destroying several squads of Chaos' servants meanwhile, until we reach first checkpoint (we should stand near it for a moment, to take it over). Marauders squad will move in a lap time on allied cannons. When greatswords see them, they will move to the fight. It is good to support them with our archers and to chase the enemy survivors together. When both of our groups come near the gate it is time to assault it. The enemy will help us with this task, opening to make a counter-attack on us. The only thing we have to do after defeating foes is to capture another checkpoint behind the walls. Battle is won.
During the assault, my sorcerer gained tenth level, finishing learning in Master of Agsha field at last. After cut-scene first act is done, and we are transferred, together with received cannon, to the new land. Unfortunately we have only field camp here, where one can only replenish losses. Fresh and rested we can continue our path of glory.
