I simply CANNOT beat it and it's honestly pissing me off because I want to see the rest of the story.

Ok well what are you having trouble with? A few general tips I can give you is to sell off mines and any bullet hives that are out of the action. I deffinetly reccomending getting foxes for this mission but don't move them around, place them in key positions so you can have 2 in different places. try to protect defenses with barbed wire. Build farms so that you get a steady income, (get the money for em by selling defenses) and only build farms on gristmills that have defenses. Leave the others to die they are not worth it. DEFEND THE PRISONERS just because the ai dosen't use badgers well dosen't mean they can't reck your ♥♥♥♥. try and destroy warrens as they pop up.

I just re-ran the mission to make sure I'm not talking out of my behind trying to help you:

Try to select a map where the two prisoners and your mills are relatively close to each other. If you can get one of your farms to be in front of your prisoner camps, than that would be great.

Start off by finding 1-2 Bullet Hives and a Drumfire cannon that are too far away from the front to be useful. Sell them. This should give you a starting capital. Use it to build up a farm that is defended by existing defences. Then go around the map finding and selling mines until you have some 120 food.


Your frontline defences should be able to hold off the initial attacks until they're overwhelmed. Use the time you have to recruit the Fox Sniper, 2 chameleons and 3 healers.

Use this small army to ACTIVELY seek out enemy warrens. I respectfully disagree with Noodlerules' advice. If you play defensively, the enemy warrens will overwhelm. Seek them out and destroy them with your chameleons and the amount of units thrown at your existing defences stays managable.

Put up some feather wire if you need around your existing defences to buff them, but my reliable way of tacking the heroic is being pro-active with a small taskforce.


You should be on the look out for enemy badger and enemy owl. Stay mobile and you can intercept them before they get dangerous. Then take care of their warrens to knock them out for good.

there's an example of walkthrough https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmUlHTZgYIE

if you'll have some luck with the map it should not be that big a problem. Skirlasvoud's strategy above is totally valid.
