To start, the &#8216;defenders&#8217; are placed anywhere <strong>within<\/strong> the castle (excluding walls and the gatehouse). The boundary of the  second army is left up to you, although it should probably be somewhere  in the swamp. The defenders have to get to the gatehouse before the  attackers do; otherwise, their gate could be destroyed. Speed is likely  to be the first factor in the attacker&#8217;s strategy. Either that, or sit  and wait it out. Although the later may take awhile, it is probably the  better of the two. The attacker&#8217;s choice controls what the defender  does. Of course, if the defender has a lot of fliers or sgt. drake, then  there is no need to open the gate, and he can attack any time he wants  to.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Here is the board, followed by another shot of it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"IMG_2201\" src=\"..\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/IMG_2201.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_2201\" width=\"672\" height=\"504\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" title=\"IMG_2202\" src=\"..\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/IMG_2202.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_2202\" width=\"672\" height=\"504\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Although I  realize it might be hard to build exactly the boards from these  pictures, I suggest you build them by this model. Wherever you see a  swamp, feel free to be completely creative. Make your own swamp. Rock,  make your own, and so on. This might present problems with some of the  scenarios though, so just keep things in pretty much the same place.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">-The Reordered Reordering Orderly One<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A gigantic castle, long since defended by the Valkyrie, is now under siege.
