Good 6 impossible to beat?

[miunau]

Hi,
Thanks for this port, I've been having a lot of fun. However I don't see a way to beat Good 6; I get swarmed constantly after the first week by green, yellow and red to the point where I can't move out of the castles without one swooping in and taking them from me within a couple of turns with an army that I can't match if I take some troops with me. While there are some resources in the first week, and I'm able to quickly upgrade the second castle and get as many sources for troops as I can, the sheer amount of AI forces doesn't seem to let up to the point where I'm playing a long losing game every time. If I venture more than two turns out of either castle, I'm done for sure. I don't remember it being this hard in the original game, even on easy.

Any tips? So far the only thing that has made any progress is to sit in the castles and build up armies for weeks and weeks, but it's not very fun.. and then I die anyway when the big boss Wyrm comes in after a couple of months, never having enough troops to beat him even if I stock up on everything every week.

Hi, @miunau. Which mission is this? I don't remember any scenario hero called Wyrm.

Hi @zenseii, thanks for the answer. It's the sixth Good side mission from the original campaign, with a map like this:

I've given it a go a few times, but I just can't get past a couple of months- the swarms just keep coming at a force I can't deal with. Had no problems with other missions. It may be a skill issue but it feels like I'm doing something fundamentally wrong in this mission with the way I'm getting my butt handed.

I see. This is completable even on Hard. Without knowing exactly how you played I can't give any move advice than a video. Here's a playthrough made a month ago on hard difficulty https://youtu.be/leT68-kEwiA?si=jJ7BVkABHOp7fK-W&t=15018.

Good luck and feel free to ask if you have any more doubts.
