Description
The recent natural disaster had thrown the kingdom into disarray, devastating the countryside and displacing thousands. Though his journey to the holy land was still possible, the King sought to return home to provide leadership, aid, and moral support to his subjects in their time of need. Yet fate had other plans.

Most of the kingdom's fragile wooden bridges have been washed away, leaving the mighty Land Bridge as the only remaining path across the great river. But this critical crossing is controlled by the armies of a longstanding rival - a sworn enemy of the crown - who would never allow the King's passage without a fight.

Across the river lies a humble village of stone masons and farmers - our loyal allies in this struggle. They have begun preparations to support the royal cause, fortifying their position and training a modest militia. Their efforts are admirable, but their numbers are few, and time is running out.

Above all, the King's presence must remain a secret. If the enemy learns that he has taken refuge in the village, they will surely launch a swift and deadly assault, endangering the King's life and plunging the kingdom into even greater turmoil.

We must act quickly and decisively to seize control of the Land Bridge before the enemy can strengthen their position or discover the King's movements. His safety and the future stability of the realm hang in the balance.

Difficulty: 3.5/5

Played on medium difficulty. I felt the pressure to keep going all along and I was able to maintain my momentum and stay engaged pretty much throughout. Good pacing, love it, pulling most of the garrison in one go is always a doozy. Thoroughly recommend.
