Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales

- Equip Longsword (+4 Power, +1 Armor to unit of choice)
- Equip Lyrian Banner (Reduce Meve's cooldown by 1)
- Stack deck with Lyrian Scytheman+ (Loyal: +7 Power) and Regiment Drummer+ (Order: Draw the top unit from your deck; if a Blitz unit, draw another)
- Complete deck with whatever damage dealing supplements you prefer to make sure the enemy doesn't whittle you down


Once you've followed the above steps, begin combat with an encounter of your choice, and begin with multiple Drummers and Scythemen. Play the Drummers to draw more Scythemen, buff them as many times as possible with Longsword, and you can hit 400-500 score as long as the enemy isn't damage focused.

Pro-tip: If you have them, include Mahakam Shieldbreakers and Alchemist+. I did it with all the mentioned cards and broke 600 before using up all their Order abilities.

There are multiple ways of obtaining this achievement. The first two can be obtained earlier while the last one is much later but a sure thing.

1 5x Sythemen, 5x Regiment Drummer, Meves Ornamental Sword, Banner trophy

Obtainable earliest. Find a fight that wont be inflicting a lot of damage on you. Fill your deck to the max with Sythemen and the Drummer. Swap cards in the beginning to get what you need. Start with a Sythemen during first turn so you can use Meves ability on him immediately. Play drummer on next round. Use his order on round three to start summoning Blitz cards, hopefully finding the rest of your drummers or Sythemen. Keep playing till all of your Sythemen are out and using Meves order ability to power them up. Even if it's round one and the enemy passes keep playing cards and abilities till you go over 300. You can always restart the match.

Bonus cards that help- By the time you get to the bonus cards, you should be adopting newer, easier strategies.


2 Use Eyck, the Manticore trophy, and 5x Alchemist.

If you are going into a fight where you know you are going to be taking a lot of damage (Scoiatel or Monsters primarily) make sure Eyck is in your first round hand, and aim for as many alchemists as you can. Spend the first round as normal, wasting as few alchemists as possible, but still aim to win. Second round can be outright forfeit, or waste a card or two for extra damage. During the final round, throw out some cards to draw fire, then lay out all of your alchemists on one row, leaving at least one for Eyck. Throw Eyck on the far right of that row, activate the Alchemist two cards over to power up the alchemist to the right of Eyck. Continue down the line till the last alchemist powers up the first card.

Bonus cards that can help- Give Meve her Ornamental Sword to give some characters an extra boost. Isbel before her power up works amazingly as well if her healing power is used after all of the alchemists use their orders, just make sure she is played second to last round and her order is done as the final move of the game.


3 5x Sytheman, 1-3 Aretuza Adept, Reinforcements, Ornamental Sword, Banner Trophy

Once I obtained all of these cards, there was nothing that could stop me in this game unless strategy dictated I needed to damage the opponent. When round 1 starts, make sure you have 1 Sytheman, 1 Aretuza, and the reinforcements card in your hand.

If your cards are safe from attack, use the Sytheman and power him up with Meve; if your cards are at risk of being damaged/destroyed, start with the Aretuza, use her ability to choose the Sytheman card. This gives you two more in your deck for a total of 7, and it gives them a +2 bonus. Next round play the Aretuza/Sytheman; if you still have it, only use Meves ability if your Sytheman is in imminent danger of being destroyed, your going to want it for what happens next. Next round, play the reinforcements card and choose the Sythemen. You now have 7 Sythemen on the field that you can continuously power up every 3 rounds. The points you obtain are remarkable.

Bonus cards that can help- None. This is a 100% full proof strategy to get the points needed. Unless your opponent has cards that reduce your bonus points in fell swoops, you can always do this again against other opponents. If you have the Lyrian Blacksmith adn the to get your Reinforcements back, you can use it to summon all of another set of cards you have that can wreck your opponent w/damage. 5x Reinforced Ballistas (7 if you had another Adept) later and the second round is almost a sure thing as well.

Hello guys!

First I seen all the solutions here but none of them were very specific which encounter you have to attempt to get this achievement.

I played on the easiest setting which is Adventurer I think.
First map.
I did with the Forktail (or Wyvern) its east from the temple behind a closed gate. The quest name Behind the Wall.
First you have to do some preparation, before the fight. I solved the cow puzzle to get the Decoy card. Then you have to go to the wedding and save the bride from the bandits. The mission called For Better or Worse.
You get here the Lyrian Merlot which is the key in this solution.

After this two quest head back to the Wyvern and start the fight. Here you need very specific cards in your hand at the start so it might take couple of tries.
The cards you need:
Lyrian Merlot
Decoy
Lyrian Scytheman - at least 3 or 4
Regiment Drummer - at least 2
Reynard Odo

You need Meve basic Longsword which boost allies power by 4 and armor by 1. Also need the Lyrian Banner to reduce the cooldown on this ability.

Now we have everything needed to get at least 300 point in a round.
The reason why I chose this battle because is more focused on buffing than attacking. You don't need to worry about Forktails because they consume their own cards on the battlefield and buffs themselfs. Sometimes other cards attack but it only took 1-2 damage for me (adventurer difficulty).
So you start with Lyrian Scytheman in ranged row and use Meve ability on it. Then second turn place another Scytheman and continue to do so until you have them. Every second turn use Meve's ability. But there is a catch: use it on the same Scytheman as you did it first time! (So when you have no more room to place your cards, you will use Lyrian Merlot to buff one of your card with the Scytheman power.)
So back were we was. If you placed your last Scytheman place your Drummers. In the next turn place another drummer and activate to other. Continue to do this until you run out of Drummers. Then place Reynald Odo to reactivate the Drummers ability and use it to draw another cards. Hopefully you got lucky and have all Scytheman in your hand. If not use Decoy on Odo to pick up and next turn place it again to activate Drummers again.
Very important not to forget to use Meve's ability whenever is possible and always on the same Scytheman.
Lastly your buffed Scytheman should be 40-50 or even more power level. Now use Lyrian Merlot to buff the weakest ally with that power level.

When I finished my turn I had 354 point in one turn. I know you need some luck but this is how I get this.

The easiest way to unlock it is probably to finish the game first.
Then reload the very last location (after the final battle, where you have to short battles - the epilogue). Go for the first battle against the Nifgaard and you should be fine.
At this point you'll have all the units you need, build a 25 cards deck :

I used the leader ability that allows you to put a card on the top of your deck and boost it by 3 ; and the Lyrian Banner.
As trickets I used all the powerfull boost / heals, and Decoy and the one to summon 2 blitz units.
The units you want :
° Lyrian Scytheman x 5 or so ;
° Regiment Drummer x 4 or so ;
° The Alchemist x2 ;
° Lyrian Blacksmith
° The Grey Rider
You can add Reynard.

Play the Scythemans left to a weaker unit, boost them with Loyal and Trinckets. Play the Trinckets twice with the Blacksmith and as soon as the Scytheman are +50, use the Alchemist to boost adjacent weaker units. Play on both rows to maximize the Grey Rider and use the Drummer to summon the max amount of units.
Very easy to get 300 points at this point.
Good luck.
