ECO MISSION 2 "An evil congregation" GUIDE 1 Year, 6 Months ago  
I'm making this post to help all those who may have trouble with this mission. I see many people saying how the wolves are so tough.

Mission start: "get er done"
Place your stockpile and granary. Next place 2 woodcutters and 3 wheat farms. Make sure to leave the taxes alone so you can start to get some gold to slowly trickle in. Now forget you even have a base.

Part 2: "like lambs to the slaughter" END THIS WAR WITH WOLVES BEFORE IT EVEN STARTS!!
Do this part as QUICKLY as you can. Select the archers press CTRL 1 to make them group 1. Make your spearmen group 2. Take the archers and place them close enough to the closest wolf den (It's NorthEast of your keep) so they fire on the wolves but DO NOT make them attack back. There should be about 2 to 3 wolves hanging out there. Once they are swiss cheese run the spears in to destroy the den. Work your way slowly(but still quickly) NorthWest toward the ruins killing wolves with arrows along the way. There are 2 more wolf dens near the ruins one is kinda hidden, destroy them. NOW ALL 3 dens are toast. During this time you may get the event that say wolves are about giving you -15 happiness. Also a small group of wolves make a mad dash for your town. If your army is still up north doing the ruins about this time it will be up to your lord to take these wolves out he should defeat them easily and take not much dmg himself (the wolves may get a couple villagers for lunch but no big deal) If you do this quickly there should now be no more wolves left and if done well you will not lose one single soldier.

Part 3: "this house is clean"
Now back to the town, with 2 woodcamps and the wheat farms you should have some stockpiles of each. Also you are probably just about completely out of food !!! Put one woodcutter to sleep and build a mill AND build the vineyard(this building is slow to produce the wine so you need it early). Place the market and use the gold you been building up to buy food (you won't get much, but hopefully it will buy you the time to get your own bread in the ovens). Next build some bakeries about 4 to start if you have the wood and you should if you are on track. Eventually 6 to 8 bakeries and 1 more mill and a total of 5 wheat farms will win this mission.(you will need to put one mill to sleep here and there when the flour stocks are pilled up enough, the goal is to not let wheat sit in your stockpile make it flour so the bakeries can work 24/7). Around this time you will need housing try to build the one that gives you 10 more beds so build it close to your keep This should be ALL you need. I see so many people saying they have trouble feeding their town of course you will when you have 50 or more villagers. You should be able to turn the rations to 1/2 making the bread pile up and everytime you have 60 gold buy food this will make them eat less bread and the bread will build up a tiny bit more.

Part 4: "well now isn't that special"
While you are waiting for the bread and wine to reach the goal make sure you use your army to finish off the ruins. I was able to beat this the first time on day 77 and the next try when I knew what to do I did it on day 36, I am positive it can be done even faster.

Sound strategy.

You would be the kind of person who would be perfect to make a walkthrough of the game. I mean an actual walkthrough, like a tutorial for every mission.

I like how you organize it and seem to have a building plan. Did this just come to you or did you plan it out?

If anything I say sounds stupid, it is because:
1: It is 5:00 in the morning
2: I am very stupid.

Them wolves are fierce, woooo, wooooo.

Spoiler alert here:

hope this doesn't continue, I think walkthroughs are not good for satisfieing game play.

I would also,

Be sure and place the stock pile and granary next to keep and to the side away from wolves,
And
Then put the three archers on top the keep, guard them with king on top too. Try and the add the three new archers as bows are in the armory for this.
add more archers and fence the paths coming from high land first and try and surround compond, you can almost to completion unless you remove trees too and then the fence should also go right to edge of map on forest side.
OR

after first waves of wolves and archers placed send the king off to destroy den/dens.Bring king back to kill strays.
