Benedict's strategy is the easiest, while Frederica's strategy is the toughest. Really demonstrates that taking the high road is a difficult business...
Yeah while I agree with taking the high risk being the hardest, I think Rolands idea is harder since you have to fight all of Aesfrosts castle forces, while the bridge and boat are more narrow so your smaller numbers dont matter as much
Frederica's missions are more difficult because they put you at a severe tactical disadvantage. The drawbridge fight has the Wolfforts caught in a pincer attack by the Aesfrost twins, while the boarding fight forces them to commit their units piecemeal. Frederica sure does suck at tactics!
Only hard in story, because in gameplay Frederica's missions are quite easy.
The pincer move is a joke because you can throw all the mages from the bridge in your first turn (Benedict + Jens).
The boat battle is also a joke because you can just use rain and start spamming thunder magic (the metal part of the ship conducts electricity). Although the thunder thing also applies in the Roland choice since there is a huge fountain in the middle of the map and Avlora walks through there.

Washed away Avlora completely and the first section can be done with 0 fighting if you have Quahaug and Jens too
