As I noted a few days ago<\/a>, the opening mission in the Kingmaker campaign is a pain in the ass. But I finally beat it by realizing that the easiest thing to do was just hunker down and forget about taking out bear dens or wolf dens that weren’t close to wandering heroes. So by focusing on getting dwarf towers up and running as soon as I could, I was able to buy enough time to last the 75 days.<\/p>\n

Keeping all my heroes close to home also meant they could level up pretty quickly since they were all there to support each other. It took quite a bit of time before one of them died, and by that time I had too strong defenses for the undead to be much trouble.
