 Scenario: Overall, not difficult. I noticed that if I send a few wolf riders down the flank, I can capture most enemy villages without any resistance. It might be intent of this level though...

 I had no major challenges meeting this objective. If there was token resistance in the middle keep, it would make it more difficult. Also if there were a few villagers garrisonned near the lower river crossing, to prevent me from capturing all the enemy villages.

-Scenario: The map was fairly balanced, but large. Overall a good scenario, but I feel that the allotted turns should be increased a bit. Not too much  fun though.
