The new facelift of the original AE ii is great. It took much time to get familiar with new techniques. It paid off in the end and I was able to clear modes-Battle of Thorin prequel and Battle of Thorin. I enjoyed playing my old favorite game in new style and rules.
But new modes i.e. BW's warroom and Challenge are extremely hard. I am not getting through. After much effort I cleared the Ghost Island and Forest Shrine. Trick with ghost island was to use wolfarchers extensively. Still it was difficult to clear but not impossible. Similar was the case with forest shrine. I let blue and black fight. Even sometimes supported losing team so that it is not wiped out and keep on fighting. It gives me time to get strong and to attack on green through mountains. In general I am saying some strategy was working here. Those stages are very hard and rightly said insanely difficult. But there was a way out to win. These were not impossible stages.
Now I am stuck at The Long March. And I don't see any strategy working. Same is the case with all stages in challenge mode. Honestly saying these other remaining stages seems impossible. Can you help on this topic? Stagewise little hints will be a great help.
And it will be great if you can add new maps to skirmish mode. Though large amount of maps is available online but selective addition will be bring much more fun.
One more thing. If non commander unit on castle then cannot buy new units. Sometimes this ruins the whole strategy. It will be good to see non commander unit buy a new unit.

Well here is blackwave, the designer of warroom campaign. I think you have already done a great job on Ghost Island and Forest Shrine. For long march, you may want to try defense the green and black teams, allure them to your castle and kill them. Once you wipe out both teams, it gives you more turns dealing with the red. I am trying to make all of my campaigns easier(just like the ghost island), while still make it a challenge to most of the players. Beside that I will also make the stage unique and probably with a little bit fun. As for the map filtering. I would like to suggest just stick with the well-known players. Such as wibian, youxing, storm, blankwave(blackwave) myself or other good players, also make sure you select the map with enough hint on initial fund and also good balance. You may want to see this post about the criterias to a map. aeii.boards.net/thread/3/basic-guide-on-map-designHope you can have fun on both campaign and PVP. We are looking forward to get good feedback. Hope my hint will work, good luck!

Need help with dilemma... You must try to retreat and survive. Use ghosts and water emental to kill the knee. Wolfarcher wolf and golem directly pull back with the king defend the area by using berseker and magic. Collect wolfarcher for counterattack

I have managed to complete the first challenge stage (grand siege) but struggled with all the others. Anybody else had any luck? Forget about Blitzkrieg and Rock Valley (some insane people can finish them anyway). The other ones in Challenge are pretty doable. Two common mechanisms in stages of insane difficulty: 1. Enemy reinforcements What you want to do: Put skeletons or cheap units at the reinforcement place, so the reinforcements will not appear. 2. Enemy units spawn new enemy units upon defeat What you want to do: Attack enemy units to low HP but not killing them. One-for-all strategy: Use high value units as baits to let your commander approach enemy castles safely. Capture enemy castles as quickly as you can then you win many insane stages.

Can't get past the room "a Long way". All missions passed this act, and therein lies the problem. He tried many tactics, retreats, attacks, nothing comes out, crushed me in 6-8 moves. Good people tell me how to go "the Long way", and best of show videos on youtube. Do not sleep at night, sitting and scratching their head
