Battle vs. Chess

You must earn a gold rating in all campaign missions (15 Order and 15 Chaos). Note that you can win by checkmating the opposing king even if that is not stated as the objective. A chess simulator can be used to help in many of the missions. While playing the campaign missions, both the undo and hint features are disabled.

Each mission is listed below with victory conditions, any special rules, and how many turns for a gold medal. I then have a link to YouTube videos from Xboxitude beating each misison with a gold medal. The videos are generally good for high level advice, but because the AI does not make the same move every time, skill will significantly reduce the number of replays you have to do. The audio on most of the videos is at such a low level that it is unintelligible, but if you are stuck then they can definitely be good for some general advice.
