“A Long Awaited Drinking Party” secret level:

Send a dwarf up to blow them to pieces with a Molotov cocktail. Walk south to Tallow and complete the level. This will unlock the “A Long Awaited Drinking Party” secret level.
“Limbs, Heads, and Smoking Craters” secret level:
Plat the “A Murder of Crows” level, where you have to escape from the prison camp. Instead of following the Deceiver south after defeating Soulblighter, follow the archer’s advice when he said “hey, we saw a wagon go north a few days ago”. Exit the level north of Soulblighter’s camp to unlock the secret level, “Limbs, Heads, and Smoking Craters”.
Getting past castles:
When getting past castles, have your troops hug the wall until they are propelled to climb stairs and take down the enemy archers themselves. If your troops hug the wall on the way in, the defenders will hit their own structure.
Aiming grenades:
Use [Ctrl] to make your dwarves throw grenades in front of faster-moving enemy units instead of directly at them.
Switching groups:
Switching from one group to another in the heat of battle is important. Do not forget to map your archers, dwarves, and skirmishers to hot keys. Use [F1] to slow down the action when it heats up.
