I'm currently playing Medieval castle defense and have failed miserable at stage 5-1. I spent the past hour hunting on google with no fruit. I'm wondering if anyone here has gotten to that point in the game and if they have any tips or links to a place that offer me tips or a solution to this stage?

Thanks

[General Questions and Answers] evilwz:
you'll need to have catapult, gold tower, net tower and slow tower.

1. build a catapult beside the rock outside the spawn area.

2. upgrade it

3. level 2, build another catapult at the left side of the wooden log

4. upgrade it + build a slow tower at the u-turn area.

5. upgrade both catapult towers to level 3.

6. build 1 more catapult, then upgrade it slowly till level 2 (preferably build it the the right slot of the big U shape of the below part)

7. wave 6 you shld build your 1 net towers beside the 1st catapult tower first.

8. during wave 6, upgrade your third catapult to level 3 upon having the gold.

9. during wave 6, when it's down to the last fews, feel free to build 1 gold tower near the castle.

8. note that wave 7 is the last wave, so just let you gold tower keep shooting

may you get a perfect score ^^

Sweet. Ill do that tonight when i get out of my internship. I did pass the stage after a week on it, but 6 units got in.... which really sucked..
[General Questions and Answers] fivetexans:
You're doing better than me. I can't get past level 3-3. I've tried several combination, catapults, cannons, towers, and can't seem to get the right placement. Lost about 20-25 in a row now.

Any help on this level would be greatly appreciated.

[General Questions and Answers] Shadowscape:
Two generic tips. One: never underestimate the cannon. They fire fast, are relatively cheap to build and upgrade and are really great for clean-up work (after multi-shot or bombard). Two: after you get the gold consumption tower, you may find it somewhat easier to get perfect scores on earlier levels. I'm now at stage 6 and I've completed all the others with all the medals and perfect scores.

This is my solution for 3-3, if you don't want spoilers, don't select the text. :)

The only good defenses are overlapping ones, so make sure you only build in the interior castle court. My build is symetric, so, I will only describe the right side. I use cannon, catapult, multi-shot, mana and slow towers.

I start with a catapult right next to the junction (there's a nook) and a multi-arrow on top of it, plus a cannon in the woods right next to the castle (x2 on the other side). I upgrade the multi-shot and cannon first. When fully upgraded, I add a slow tower on the other side of the catapult, later a mana tower next to the multi-shot and two more cannon in the road bend. For the last stages you'll have plenty of cash, so improvise. There's another catapult nook down below, and you should add another slow tower somewhere close to it too. I don't guarantee a perfect score, but you'll get at least three stars out of this.

Question: are there people out there who managed to get level 6-1 with only three towers? There's a medal there that suggests it is possible, but I can't imagine how. Unless you sell all but three of the towers for the last wave (the one with that bastard healer boss that refuses to die).
[General Questions and Answers] fivetexans:
Thanks for the quick response. Quick question regarding some of your terminology for the placement of pieces. And I will hide the text too to keep from spoiler alerts.

For 3-3, when you say "junction," is that at the beginning next to the tent, that first grass strip coming out from the tent, or another area. Not sure where the junction or nook is.

And you place these pieces at the beginning, with cannons at the end to guard the castle from any that get through at the beginning, and then build and upgrade from there... is that correct?

Thanks again. Just trying to get past this. I had no problems with any other level, all 3 gold stars (except for one white star) until 3-3, and this one I just can't seem to get past.

Thanks again. I realize there is more than one way to beat a level, but, just wanting to see what you had been able to do.

[General Questions and Answers] fivetexans:
Shadowscape,

Just beat 3-3 and 3-4.

The biggest thing was learning that you can actually "upgrade." I wasn't sure what you had meant by upgrade in your previous post.

Once you learn how to upgrade your weapons, it can be pretty brutal. And, if there is anyone out there who was like me, not knowing how to upgrade, here's how you do it:

Place your weapons. As you have enough gold, touch one of the weapons and you will see a green arrow. Click on the green arrow to upgrade the power of the weapon. You can do multiple upgrades until you max out. For example, a cannon costs 60 gold to place. It does 5 damage. If you upgrade for 35 more gold, it will do 10 damage. If you upgrade again, it is another 80 gold, it will do 15 damage, etc.

Thanks again for your help.

[General Questions and Answers] fivetexans:
We need someone to make some videos and put them on YouTube. I found one video, but it is more of an intro to the game. I think it is from the developer, according to one of the comments.

I can't post the YouTube URL right now because I'm a new member here on the forum, but just go there and do a search for: Medieval Castle Defense

I've made it to 4-3, but stuck again. Can't believe you only get 180 gold to start that level. Losing bad.

Great game though.
[General Questions and Answers] diveafrica:
Hi i am also stuck at 4-3 any help please
[General Questions and Answers] maaaaaat:
any hint on 3-5??

Am I the only one having troubles passing this one?
[General Questions and Answers] fivetexans:
For level 3-5, I use cannons, slow towers, and mana towers.

Before wave 1. With 400 gold to start, I place 1 canon on each of the small squares of grass about half way up on the two outside paths. This allows that cannon to fire on the enemy the whole time they are walking around.

Going up the middle, I place 1 canon on each side of the path on the 2nd tier of grass, and a slow tower on the back of the 1st tier.

I then place 1 canon on each side of the entrance to the castle on the very upper tier.

During wave 1. You will get enough gold before the enemy reaches the castle to upgrade the 2 cannons by the entrance to the castle. Upgrade them both.

Before wave 2. Upgrade both canons on the middle path.

During wave 2 or before wave 3. I add a canon on each side of the end of middle path (just below the 2 canons guarding the entrance to the castle). You can then upgrade 1 of those canons.

During wave 3 and before wave 4. I upgrade the other canon on the end of the middle path. I also do the final upgrade to one of the canons guarding the entrance to the castle.

Before wave 5. I do the final upgrade on the other canon guarding the entrance to the castle, and I add a mana tower in the middle path opposite the slow tower.

Before wave 6. I do the final upgrade to one of the canons at the top of the middle path. I upgrade the slow tower in the middle path.

Before wave 7. I do the final upgrade on the other canon at the top of the middle path. I add a new canon on the middle path, below the slow tower.

Before wave 8. I upgrade each canon on the outside path. I add a new canon at the bottom of the middle path below the mana tower.

Before wave 9. I put 1 slow tower to the side of each of the canons guarding the entrance to the castle (next to the stump on the left and on the other side of the tree on the right).

Before wave 10. I upgrade each of the canons at the bottom of the middle path and I add a new canon on the outside path, above and to the inside (on the higher ground) of the exisiting outside path canon.

Before wave 11. I do the final upgrade on the canon on the middle path above the slow tower. I also upgrade one of the new canons on the outside path.

During wave 11 and before wave 12. I upgrade the other new canon on the outside path. I do the final upgrade on the canon on the middle path above the mana tower. I add two new canons next to the canons at the top of the middle path and upgrade them both. I do the final upgrade on one of the canons at the bottom of the middle path. I upgrade the mana tower.

Before wave 13. I do the final upgrade on the other canon at the bottom of the middle path. You can add a canon anywhere else near the top, upgrade the two slow towers near the top, or whatever with the final gold.

That gets me a perfect score on 3-5.

Not sure if it makes sense, but for me it is all canons and slow towers mostly. You need to fortify that middle path because that is the fastest path to the castle.

Hope that helps.

[General Questions and Answers] fivetexans:
Does anyone have a plan on how to beat 4-3? I have been stuck on 4-3... can't seem to get past it. I can make it up to wave 11, but I don't have the fire power to overcome all the tanks.

Edit:

I finally beat 4-3!! I did it all with canons, slow towers, and mana towers. Not sure if there is really a way to describe how I did it, except that I upgraded every canon to level 2, put in 2 or 3 slow towers, and 2 mana towers. I kept trying it with multi-shot towers and catapults, but couldn't getter done.

I did not put any weapons on the first path as the enemies leave the tent. I put them all on the 2nd pathway, and at the top of the 3rd pathway.

Make sure by wave 7 you have plenty of fire power on the first path, at least 2 or 3 strong canons at the beginning of the 3rd path (and maybe a slow tower). You will face the enemy that will freeze (turn yellow) your weapons, so you'll need to make sure you have some of them spread out so they can keep taking out enemies on wave 7.

Also, if you make it to wave 11, after the last tanks leave your first sets of canons, you can delete those canons and move them over to the 3rd path, because you're gonna need them. Since there are only 11 waves, you won't need those first canons anymore, so keep upgrading the 3rd path canons and put in some slow towers to get those enemies moving slow.
[General Questions and Answers] jharowicz:
I too am having issues with 4-3. No matter what combination I try it does not work out for me.
[General Questions and Answers] Buhdi:
What a great game!

Until World 6 I got all achievements and did all stages perfectly.

But it seems that achievement 5 in world 6 is buggy. I did it with only three towers (perfect of course), but it doesn't count for me. I tried different tower-combinations -> no success.

And it would be nice if anyone could give some hints for 6-3 and 6-4. No chance for me to do it in the perfect way. I already tried it MANY times.

Thx :-)

edit: 4-3 is very easy. Just build ONLY ballistas. Start with two (one in the center buttom-right, and one in the center upper-left). Upgrade asap. Build anonther ballista near the first or second, upgrade ... and so on
[General Questions and Answers] Shadowscape:
The three tower achievement refers to tower types, not actual towers. Only select the tower types that you actually use and you should get the medal at the end.

World 5 Stage 4 Help

Does anyone know how to complete World 5 Stage 4? It's really starting to bug me! I think I've tried hundreds of combinations to no avail. Also I don't see a reason to use the gold consumption tower. It just wastes gold till you have none left. When should it be used?

Somebody needs to make a walkthrough this game so it doesn't get too frustrating and turn players away.
[General Questions and Answers] Buhdi:
My Solution for 5-4:

Wave 1: Build one Bombard Cannon in the upper left corner. Upgrade 2 times.

Wave 2: Build another Bombard Cannon next to the first one. Upgrade 2 times.

Wave 3: Build another Bombard Cannon next to the other ones. Upgrade.

Wave 4: Upgrade the last Bombard Cannon.

Wave 5: Build one Slow Tower and upgrade 2 times.

Wave 6: ---

Wave 7: Build 4 Gold Tower and relax.

... Relax until the end.

I don't have the permission to insert a link with my "screenshot". So, I hope its okay if I post my links in that way ;-) (just remove the spaces)

The following solution didn't work for me...
[General Questions and Answers] fivetexans:
I was able to get a perfect score with the solution by evilwz.

The only difference I made was I built my 3rd catapult at the bottom left of the path... in the bend before it goes to the castle. I upgraded it to level 2 as soon as I could, then built the net tower as described, and then upgraded to level 3 on the 3rd catapult.

Worked great and got the perfect score, and the ribbon.

Look at the posts above (#24 and #25). They show the directions for 5-1. I've tried it 3 straight times and get a perfect each time. Evilwz has a good plan.

World 7 stage 2

Anyone know how to beat world 7 stage 2. There are too many monsters at the beginning. Theres not enough coins to upgrade the weapons. Too Many Waves with increasing numbers of Monsters. I feel so defeated playing world 7 stage 2. HELP!
[General Questions and Answers] fivetexans:
There may be a better way for 7-2, but I got a perfect score using 2 Ballistas, a bunch of Canons, 1 Slow Tower, and 1 Mana Tower.

1. Set up 2 canons beside each other at the end of the upper ledge, and 1 Ballista in the middle, just to the upper left of the blue water spot. During, wave 1, I add 1 cannon when I have the points to the small nub in the upper path. Then, upgrade that 3rd canon during wave 2.

2. Add a Slow Tower to the very upper right area before wave 3. After wave 3, add a second Ballista above, and to the right of the first one. After wave 4, upgrade both Ballistas.

3. Add another canon beside the other two, and upgrade it as soon as you can. Before wave 7, add another canon, two spaces below the slow tower, and upgrade it during wave 7. After wave 7, upgrade one of the two original canons for the final upgrade.

4. Before wave 9, upgrade the other original canon to the final level. Upgrade the original Ballista to the final level, add a Mana Tower below the Slow Tower.

During wave 9, add another canon above the 2nd Ballista, and upgrade it right away. You should also have enough gold to upgrade the canon below the Mana Tower.

5. During wave 10, add another canon beside the 2nd Ballista, upgrade it, and do the final upgarde on the 2nd Ballista. During wave 11, do the final upgrade on the canon on the little nub, and keep upgrading anything else you can. You should make it thru wave 11 easily.

[General Questions and Answers] AntwanL:
Anyone have a tip on 4-2? I cant get past wave 3 and 4
[General Questions and Answers] fivetexans:
For 4-2, I use 4 things:

1) Canon

2) Catapult

3) Slow Tower

4) Manna Tower

I'll try and get some screen shots, but for now, here is how I set it up.

1) Before and during wave 1 - I set up 3 canons on the middle strip between the two paths. One at the top of the inside path to the left of the hole, one on the right side of the hole, and one at the end of the path, to the right of the second hole. During that wave, upgrade the second and third canons.

2) During wave 2, add a slow tower to the left of the first canon. Then add a catapult to the left of the second hole. Upgrade the catapult.

3) During wave 3, quickly add a Manna Tower to the left of the catapult as soon as you can... quickly. Should be between the second canon and catapult.

4) Before and during wave 4, add a canon above the stump, at the entrance to the path to the castle. Add another canon on the opposite side of that path. Upgrade the fourth canon, then the fifth.

5) Before and during waves 5 - 10, add a slow tower below the tree (to the right of canons 4 and 5). Add your sixth canon to the left of the fourth canon and upgrade. Upgrade the catapult to level 3. Add a catapult to the left of the fifth canon and upgrade. Add a Manna Tower above the tree. Upgrade the first canon to level 3. Upgrade the fourth canon to level 3. Upgrade the second catapult to level 3. (I cannot remember the exact order of these steps. I will edit this soon).

6) All of that has been a build up to wave 11. Wave 11 requires fast fingers for the four big enemies. As soon as all four enemies clear the lower weapons. Delete them and add catapults to the upper path to the castle. As many as you can as fast as you can. Delete the first slow tower, canons 1, 2, and 3, catapult #1, and the mana tower. Add catapults up above quickly.

This is what I've done and it works every time. There may be a better way besides the canons, deleting weapons on wave 11, etc. But, it works for me for a perfect score.

Screen shots and better details coming soon.

im stuck on 8-2 as well. ive tried everything. cannons,bombard,catapults slows, even the gold consumption (which wipes out ur gold incredibly fast) since the only place u can put it fires on the main lines.

EDIT* finally beat 8-2 after 31 tries (persistence pays off

OK 8-3 finally beat this one too. (Bombard,cannon,gold towers)I used 2 bombard towers. 1 on the top cliff (make sure it has maximum coverage) the 2nd one on the peninsula right in line with thier path (should leave the tip of peninsula open for a cannon) make sure u upgrade the bombard on the peninsula to level 2 right away. then upgrade the upper bombard or drop the cannon on the peninsula. make sure u leave $80 open, drop a gold consumption when the freeze mage comes out. $50 to buy it and $30 to shoot twice and kill the freeze mage. Sell it and let ur bombards and cannon take out the soldiers. same thing for the next wave. i also used it to take out the mega soldier before it ran out of money, then sell it back. then the last cpl waves i hold a gold tower ready down by the castle in case something sneaks thru. THis didnt get me a perfect. but this is the base strategy if u can improve it let me know.

[General Questions and Answers] droiduser01:
for 3-1 I used a ballista in the middle of the first area and a gold consumption in the second area. got a perfect with it too I believe lol. The ballista keeps enough money coming to keep the gold consumption tower killing. Just make sure the gold consumption is back far enough to hit around the corner and just out of range of the ballista's range so that the ballista can get those last shots in.
[General Questions and Answers] droiduser01:
Ok. did this just now. was posted somewhere else in here but works great..

Ballistas... Ballistas... Ballistas... Only thing I took.. I placed one in the center of the bottom right area. Upgrade that one. Then place another ballista in the upper left area in the middle. After wave 1 upgrade that one. I then placed another ballista above the bottom one and then place one below the upper one and upgrade them both. I continue placing ballista's lower then upper and upgrading them until I have a 5 of them in a '+' formation. Add a few more in areas where they can cover the middle part and you will get perfect.
