[edit] Part 1 - Prison Break-In

Win/Loss

Victory Stars Loss Stars Victory Squares
2 6 4
Enemies Quantity
Servants 3
Men at Arms 2
Pre-Battle Description
By bribing a groundskeeper, you gain entry to the prison via a conveniently unguarded drain cover. Once inside, you set forth to rescue Baron Morton's Daughter, Griselda, from this dank nightmare. Your first obstacle will be a guard lecturing some obnoxious servants...
Post-Battle Description
With the guards defeated, you can now venture further inside the prison. A trap door at the end of the corridor is the only way forward. Loud voices can be heard from beyond.
Hints
  • Killing the servants prevents them from playing their Raise the Alarm card and drawing more cards.
  • You don't score any Victory Stars for killing servants so you don't have to kill them to win.
  • You need to rush the yellow Victory Squares to stop Gary winning by occupying them.

Servants 3
Men at Arms 1
Guard Dog 2
Pre-Battle Description
The prison is guarded by a brutish company of men-at-arms who dedicate their lives to administering summary justice to their guests. During their time off duty they reside here in the Guard House, to play cards and drink rum. But the real danger here is the guard dogs. These cowardly beasts are capable of quickly taking down the most capable warrior if they are allowed to attack from behind.
Post-Battle Description
With the guards taken care of, you can now proceed into the prison in search of Griselda. Frenzied barking can be heard from up ahead. More of those accursed canines must be dealt with, and quickly!
Hints
  • Guard dogs can do a large amount of damage from the rear. Be careful with your facing!


[edit] Part 3 - Prison Dog Yard

Enemies Quantity
Guard Dog 3
Dog Boy 1
Pre-Battle Description
The Dog Yard is home to a pack of three starving guard dogs who have been trained to attack strangers on sight. They are tended to by a feral urchin, and though incapable of speech, he has the audacity to accost you. Make this cur and his charges share the same fate!
Post-Battle Description
Crossing the Dog Yard brings you to the entrance of the dread Prison Catacombs, where the majority of the prisoners are held. Griselda is surely inside.
Hints
  • Dog Boy doesn't give any victory points, so like the Servants killing him is optional.
  • Try to avoid letting the dogs get behind you where their Cowardly Attack will do extra damage.


[edit] Part 4 - Prison Warden

Enemies Quantity
Warden Gorald 1
Scar 1
Servants 1
Pre-Battle Description
No one has escaped the prison in twenty years. Imagine Warden Gorald's surprise to find that someone has broken in! He will seek retribution for this outrage. He has a small retinue of servants and a fanatically loyal hound named Scar. Scar wears a bespoke chainmail suit, making him even tougher to harm than the dogs you have faced thus far. You hear Griselda's faint cries for help from nearby. For the house Morton! To battle!
Post-Battle Description
The defeated Warden Gorald has a set of keys on his belt which open the cells throughout the prison. You discover Griselda in a cell nearby, unmolested but bedraggled. She is overcome with relief at her rescue and promises great rewards upon her safe return to her father. Rewards you have truly earned!
Hints
  • Warden Gorald has a lot of Parries. Try to attack him from behind or use Magic attacks to avoid them.
