The fairy tale adventures

Update 12 july 2013:

The first batch of epic raids will be deployed on the UK version of the game on 8th of August 2013. Most other servers will recieve this batch of epic raids during the same week (5-11 august) depending on your weekly maintenance day.

Based on comments and opinions on the testserver forum, several aspects related to the epic raids feature were adjusted. For example: the Gold Tower is no longer producing gold bars and is now producing Coins instead.

Update 18 june 2013:

As of today the adventures & all related stuff is live on the testserver at tsotesting.com!

High level players! TO ARMS! It is time to battle epic mythical creatures in a unique fairy tale universe and acquire some awesome and cool new items!High levels should expect many exciting challenges in this fairy tale inspired setting: ambitious adventures, new and very powerful enemies, magical resources and exclusive rewards that cannot be acquired any other way.
These adventures will be tradable and the minimum level requirement has not been decided yet. More information about exact level frames will be presented in the near future. Bear in mind that some words, items and terms such as “fairy-tale adventures” are still work in progress and might change.

The first batch will introduce 5 new adventures and will be presented to you in-game by a little tailor.

The first adventure can be found using your explorers (long adventure search) or you can grab it in the shop. Once the adventure completed succesfully and if you are lucky, you will be rewarded with a follow-up adventure which will continue the story. (Yes, there is chance factor but and is still work in progress)

These 5 adventures are split into two paths, those two paths each have a final adventure with a special reward to be unlocked.

Home Island

The Home Island is divided in 9 sectors. The numbers of these sectors is organised like your numpad:

The most ideal order of conquering:

1. Sector 1
2. Sector 4
3. Sector 2
4. Sector 5
5. Sector 7
6. Sector 8
7. Sector 6
8. Sector 3
9. Sector 9

This order will reduce your losses to a minimum, skipping as many camps as possible. You still get all of the experience of all skipped camps when you clear the sector. What you don't get is the loot from the skipped camps, but in most cases the loot doesn't outweigh the losses. The loot changes per sector, per sector are the chances given - as far as there is found through my research -

Home Isle:

Sector 7 - Sector 8 - Sector 9

Sector 4 - Sector 5 - Sector 6

Sector 1 - Sector 2 - Sector 3

Sector 9

The heaviest sector of all - you might even want to do several easier adventures like Horseback to gain enough experience to reach level 36 so you can start with crossbows.

OK now you've cleared your homezone fully the only way of getting new experience is doing adventures and every now and then an accidental quest from the book.

The easiest adventures to start with are: Horseback, Witch of the Swamp & Traitors.
Other interesting adventures are: Stealing from the Rich, The Dark Priests & Island of the Pirates.

Home Isle:

Sector 7 - Sector 8 - Sector 9

Sector 4 - Sector 5 - Sector 6

Sector 1 - Sector 2 - Sector 3

Sector 6

This sector is as hard as the previous one if you look at the difficulty of the camps. 1 big advantage: you only have to take out 1 camp to get to the leader. And the fact you have soldiers now is a small advantage as well.

After this one it's time to take down sector 3. A little bit of playing around before the big bang of sector 9...

Home Isle:

Sector 7 - Sector 8 - Sector 9

Sector 4 - Sector 5 - Sector 6

Sector 1 - Sector 2 - Sector 3

Sector 8

Nothing special: a lot of losses - but easy to execute. Only 1 camp can be avoided - just let your generals roll from Sector 7 to the enemy in thes sector:

When it's done you can heal your wounds and start preparing for sector 6!

Home Isle:

Sector 7 - Sector 8 - Sector 9

Sector 4 - Sector 5 - Sector 6

Sector 1 - Sector 2 - Sector 3

Sector 3

Now it's time for sector 3...

An easy sector to take and now it's more clear why we wait such a long time with it: now you finally got cavalry and a shortcut to the leadercamp.

After this one comes the hardest part - sector 9.

Home Isle:
Sector 7 - Sector 8 - Sector 9

Sector 4 - Sector 5 - Sector 6

Sector 1 - Sector 2 - Sector 3

Sector 7

In sector 5 you had a opportunity for testing a block, now, in sector 7 you have to perform a block to save about 45 recruits. Compared with the sector 5 you should've gained quite some experience and stuff to afford the units & the 2nd general.
Compared with sector 5 this is sector is easy to clear. No interceptions, just give your general a good start position, sit back and enjoy the fights!

The map:

After this sector move on to sector 8. Bringing 5x Marble & 5x Iron, more & bigger deposits compared to sector 3...

Home Isle:

Sector 7 - Sector 8 - Sector 9

Sector 4 - Sector 5 - Sector 6

Sector 1 - Sector 2 - Sector 3
