Hey, glad to hear your feedback! In this scenario you don't repair barracks. You want them to live as much as possible, but one day you inevitably have to lose them. And even more, you will have to fight for every single piece of wall across the whole perimeter when the Umbrella Corps come ^^)

The idea behind nightmare general is to kite him with a single unit while all the archers focusing him.

The path to rescue Claire is well considered in design. Density of zombies on one of the streets is just about for her to cross through. Take a closer look or just wait for zombies to destroy some of the nearest buildings around her.

Great concept, but I must be missing something because unless I deconstruct walls and such I can't get stone, therefore I can't repair the barracks or town hall.

Also, even gathering every bit of resources I could manage and training probably nearly 50 archers, you just don't have the firepower to stop the enormous hordes of zombies and then add a nightmare general on top?

Again, loved the idea (though getting Claire out of the initial spawn is borderline impossible, requiring a dozen restarts...) but balance is way off.
