+Your aim here should be to build up your gold by controlling villages, and
+ideally by finishing early.
+The enemy recruits bats to capture villages, and hordes of Walking Dead
+to keep you busy.  The occasional Dark Adept can be dangerous on Hard 
difficulty,
+but is vulnerable to melee attack, especially from knights.
+
+One approach is to recall a few level 2 units supported by a mage.  These units
+build a defensive position in the south-east, using hills and forest for cover.
+Two mounted troops capture villages in the north and west,
+while a scout and archer cover the hills in the middle against bats.
+A merman or two distract enemy bats and capture sea villages.
+If you can recall the merman which picked up the trident
+in Bay of Pearls, it will be able to dispatch bats easily on its own.
+
+During daytime, your main force advances to one of the villages in
+the south-east, where you wait for waves of Walking Dead to attack.
+An advanced melee unit can use the village
+defense bonus to survive attacks, and heal between turns.
+By the time it is low on hit points, it should be advancing to level 3.
+
+You should now control most villages, and can recruit or recall
+a few additional troops.
+Launch an offensive from the south-east, supported by your horsemen advancing
+from the north-west.  Don't forget to make use of Konrad in the attack.
