Crow's Bridge
This is a great level. You have a small force of 10 Warriors, 4 Archers and a Dwarf and you need to protect the Village from being over-run by a mob of Thrall and Soulless while a pack of Ghols run around wreaking havoc.  
A perfect example of Rock, Paper, Scissors; Use the Dwarf to keep Warriors alive by killing Thrall, use Archers to keep Dwarf alive by killing Soulless, use Warriors to keep the Archers alive by killing Ghols. The best place to do this is in town where you can use the buildings as cover and to funnel the enemy into a killing zone. But be very careful, if the enemy enters the town the game's over.

Hints:

  • Don't lose your Dwarf trying to kill everything. If you've weakened the enemy, you've done good. Let the Warriors mop up and get the Dwarf ready for the next batch of Thrall.
  • A line of satchels works better than a group of satchels.
  • Use a #3 line for Archers. This keeps them from catching stray javelins meant for the guy next to them, and allows enough room for the Warriors to get through in a hurry.
  • Don't waste your time killing Villagers. They attract the Ghols attention away from you. And I've played too many games where someone killed their Dwarf with a bad bottle bounce trying to kill a Villager.
    Here's the film.
