An Orcish Assault
[whu]A classic frontal assault is difficult and time consuming. I will send one or two units west to collect villages, and Delenia (Delly) south along the east edge. Send a couple other units, perhaps rogues, west then south going around the Orc forces to eventually meet Delly at the Orc keep for some glorious backstabbing. While keeping Efraim protected, allow the orcs to enter the city, at which point Lord Redain's troops will become active.
[whu]Pick up items and store them or give them to your leaders, your troops are too junior at this point and if you give them items and they die the items are lost.
[whu]Steal all your allies villages, he doesn't need them.
[whu]If you recruit any loyal units, they should probably hide behind the lines for future service.
The Assassination
[whu]Recruit or possibly recall (Mario) very lightly, the fight will be quick and in close quarters. Grab all the villages, you have plenty of time. There is usually a nice item to the northeast, but it's covered by a unit that doesn't die easily, and by the time you kill him either the scenario has ended or some very bad dudes have come up behind you. Travel northwest, then south. Make sure all of your units are in place with full movement before you step into the chamber. Usually Mario will be one XP from levelling up, so give him the first hit. On lower difficulties you can make great use of backstab here, but even on hard Redain should go down in a turn or two.
