YUK!!

I know I've got to get the Guards to hit the orb, but I cannot for the life of me work out how to use the Decoys.

Any help welcome.

Cheers
Chris

the "intended solution" is to place eat decoy as you get that far west. the first one should pull about 5 guards over the first wall, leaving 2 who won't go south because they'd stab their friends.

the second one should pull 2 guards over the second wall, one being above the arrows, one being allowed below to hit the orb.

the third decoy should pull the last guard over the last wall.

Thanks Silver - another hour and I finally achieved it. I managed four guards with the first Decoy.
