I will not deny, I am have a great time playing Inferno – third installment in Levy & Campaign series. This game is great both for Solitaire and multiplayer sessions; as each every title from that series, is astonishingly beautiful – and I mean this in all aspects like map, cards, cubes or counters. Not to mention great Rulebook and Backgroundbook.
Having such great experiences I thought I will share some of the knowledge I managed to gain during those sessions. Maybe that will be helpful for you in your first sessions in Levy & Campaign word? Hopefully so! Enjoy!

Hi! Which one do you prefer between this one and Almoravid?
Almoravid is not too scripted?
Thank you very much!

That is a good question; Almoravid puts much more emphasis on politics; Inferno is smaller scale where treachery plays key role; are they scripted? Well, the arrival of Almoravids is of course planned as per history and the events unfold more or less historically (Toledo first, Aomoravids later). Inferno usually has Storm of Cortona as a starting point but then can go any way. So it is a choice of what theme appeals to you.

Thank you for your reply 🙂
I’ve read that, in Inferno, it’s more difficult to keep lords on the map than in Almoravid ; I think it’s a good thing. Does your experience confirm that?
I’ve started wargames thank to (or because of!) you, by first buying Paths of Glory! Now I struggle to find another one as good!

Glad to hear I can be of help! Keeping lords in Inferno can be a bit more tricky as Podesta ones require double loot / coin to be kept in the play. But that is the beauty of this installment!

I’ve finally ordered Inferno. It seems a little less scripted, less “fiddly” and more exciting with the treachery system. Even if I think they’re both great, I prefer to play only one but twice the time!
