Hello. I already solved all the problems with flickering screen a all those technical problems :D Well, I really like all the sieges and conquering castles with my allies. I remember that when I played the game a few years ago, I failed to save Lincoln (maybe Leicester too) from the attack of Sheriff's armies. It means I had to conquer it back. I remember there was fog in that mission, when I was conquering Lincoln back (in case it helps you to remember that too :) ). Well, my problem is that when I play it now, I always manage to save both towns and therefore I cannot access these missions. I'd like to ask, is there any way how could I play these missions again (reconquering Lincoln/Leicester)? Now, I tried all the ways to defend Lincoln and I always succeed but when I played it before, at least one town has fallen to prince John's hands. Thanks for your help. Turon

I failed to defend Derby but I just reloaded. I have been meaning to let the fail stay to see what happens later, now I know this sounds like 'missing missions' that isn't really talked about in walkthroughs.

You need to pick a different mission when 'Defend __' is down to 0!
Now, sometimes there is no other choice, but here's some tips:
Play the missions to earn blazons, those use up turns, to help get the turns down. (Defend Lincoln doesn't have any of these).
Just before hitting the check mark at the end of completing a mission, save the game. When completing a mission is when the game chooses the new missions for you. So after completing a mission if you don't get any other options, reload to end that mission again and try again. Sometimes, though no matter how often I reload I am not given any alternatives, as obviously most story missions can't be skipped and don't have a 'fail' option.
I played again, purposely trying to do ambush missions instead of the story missions to delay them/lose them if possible. Didn't get all the way to the end yet, but I can say this:

Trying to fail defending Lincoln, the countdown reset after completing "Wedding and a Funeral", but nonetheless still able to do it.
If you fail 'Defend Lincoln' this results in the new mission "Free Lincoln" (after Defend Leicester, another simple defend mission where you just acquire blazons. Can't seem to fail this one, and that makes sense as you wouldn't have any castles left to launch allied attacks from if you lose it.)

After you free Lincoln, you'll have to defend it again. So you could repeat these missions multiple times.

If you fail 'Defend Derby' you'll have to repeat 'The Black Castle'.
Thank you, I've never known about the timer before. Now I know what those hourglass mean :)
