This page covers The Great Battle in the console and PC version of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
The Great Battle is the payoff chapter for a lot of the campaign's quieter systems. The spectacle is the obvious draw, but the level feels best when you understand that your earlier statue cleanup and your ability to read battlefield quotas still matter just as much as the chaos on screen.
Before you push forward
- Spend your statues before starting if you can. The auxiliary support is one of the fun rewards for paying attention earlier.
- Stay objective-first. This chapter is still quota-driven, even if it looks like a full battlefield free-for-all.
Route and objective breakdown
- Go into the battle with your support options sorted so you are not leaving the earlier statue work on the table.
- Follow the active enemy requirements instead of trying to clear every body in sight.
- Use the reinforcements and support effects when the stage offers them, especially when the crowd starts to stack around heavier targets.
- Keep your battlefield readable. The stage gets much uglier when you let spectacle pull your attention away from the objective list.
Common stuck points
- Fight feels messy? Re-check the current quota target and stop free-fighting the crowd.
- Support feeling weak? Make sure you actually used the unlocked battle options instead of saving them forever.
Completion and cleanup notes
The Great Battle improves a lot on replay because it stops feeling like pure noise. Once you understand which systems are cashing out here, the whole chapter feels like a reward instead of a storm you are barely surviving.
Bonus tip
If a replay ever feels flat, it is usually because you skipped too much statue cleanup before reaching this point.
