 Nobody has seen fit to write a discussion of the "Konrad" Scenarios in 
English, so I thought I would begin, if only to

+provide grounds for trenchant criticism from more experienced and abler 
players.  These descriptions are for the
+"medium" difficulty level (as "easy" lets you get away with sloppiness and 
"hard" is for people who are comfortable with
+AdvancedTactics).  Please improve these and add your own for later levels.
 
 1. The Elves Beseiged. You have enough money to build a cadre of level 1 
soldiers. I usually buid a scout, two pair of
 archers-fighters, and a shaman. Then

 and assault the castle together. If you send scouts and take villages the 
enemy leader will come out and try to retake
 them, giving you a chance for an early
 victory.
+
+4. Bay of Pearls.  In this scenario you have, basically, two independent 
battles (at least at first).
+At sea, you must fight the sea leader, his nagas, bats, and sea orc with your 
mermen.  Mermen and nagas both have high
+defense in water and few attacks, so combat can be a bit slow and frustrating. 
 On the first turn, use Konrad to free
+the first batch of mermen; one of these can go free the second, who free the 
third.  Then send a few down the right-hand
+side to free the mermen guarded by the nagas - two mermen is usually enough, 
one to get attacked by the nagas and the
+other to slip past and free a cageful of mermen.  Don't forget to send one 
merman down to grab the Storm Trident.
+On land, you have to fight off a wave of orcs.
+Once you have won the sea battle, you can send your mermen in to harass or 
assassinate the land orc leader, usually
+getting almost all of them killed but reducing the pressure of your land 
forces.  Your land forces are hindered
+primarily by the small numbers you can recruit at a time and by the time it 
takes for them to cross the river and get to
+the front.
+The outcome of this battle affects the next scenario.  If you kill the sea 
leader, you wind up on Isle of
+the Damned; if you kill the land leader you wind up on Muff Malal's Peninsula. 
 If you kill both, you get a choice.  You
+fight undead either way, but on Muff Malal's Peninsula, you can keep using 
your units and leveling them up.  On Isle of
+the Damned, you can't use your usual units but you can get some free 
assistance from an extra-powerful white mage for
+later in the game.
