Dark Ages - Night 6 is the sixth level of Dark Ages in Plants vs. Zombies 2. It is a Last Stand level. The player is given 2000 sun and four Plant Food to set up a defense. When this level is finished for the first time, the player unlocks the Sun Bean.

Difficulty

The player is only given 2000 sun to defend against many Conehead and Buckethead Peasants, as well as some Jester Zombies. The biggest threat in this level, however, are the necromancy ambushes. These will bring many Imp Monk Zombies deep into defenses, resulting in a bad time for the player's plants. Therefore, the player will have to quickly get rid of the tombstones. This can be challenging, since Grave Buster cannot be used in this level, as well as the scattered positions of the tombstones. Extra precaution should be taken early, as there are two Necromancy ambushes that appear very quickly. Do not bring along any plants that use projectiles, the Jester Zombie will fling them back.

Waves

The small number next to the zombie icon means that zombie will always appear in that lane, with 1 being the topmost lane and 5 being the bottommost one.

Waves	Non-dynamic zombies	Ambush zombies	Note(s)
1	² ⁴ ¹ ³ ⁵	None
2	² ⁴		Necromancy!
3	¹ ⁵	None
4		None	Five normal tombstones are spawned
5			Five normal tombstones are spawned, Necromancy!
6		None
7	² ⁴	None
8	² ⁴ ¹ ³ ⁵	None	Five normal tombstones are spawned
9			Necromancy!
10	¹ ² ³ ⁴ ⁵	None	Final flag

Strategies

Strategy 1

Required plants:
Plant two columns of Fume-shrooms and one column of Wall-nuts. You would only have 500 sun now, so save it for surprise attacks or if things are rough.
Remember to destroy the two graves near your house, or you will let the zombies enter your house very easily. You can plant another Fume-shroom behind the graves if you did not plant the other Fume-shrooms on the first or second column.
If the zombies eat your Wall-nuts, replant them.
Use a Cherry Bomb or a Potato Mine if you think the level is too difficult.
The walkthrough and the picture below will explain this strategy.

Strategy 2

Created by Snuffygetlucky

This is an extremely simple strategy. It only needs three seed slots. The only thing that will chew on the defense is the Bucketheads. Anything else will die before they can get there.

Required plants:

Plant your stuff like this:

- F G W - - - -

F F S W - - - - -

F F S G - - - - -

F F G W - - - - -

- F F W - - - - -

F=Fume-shroom
S=Snapdragon
W=Wall-nut

Let's rock!

When the graves indicated have been destroyed, make it like this:

- F F W - - - - -

F F S W - - - - -

- F F W - - - - -

You should have 50 sun left. About in the middle of the level, use that sun to repair the Wall-nut that looks the most damaged. When the final wave comes, use your two Plant Food on the Snapdragons in rows two and four when the zombies get close enough.

Strategy 3

Created by RaidingParty

This strategy can beat the level without Plant Food, premium content, gemium plants, or losing any lawn mowers.

Required plants:
- Tall-nut
- Celery Stalker

The rest is not needed.

Plant Tall-nuts in the first column except for the first and fourth lanes. Instead, plant the Tall-nuts in these lanes directly in front of the nearest tombstones. Fill up every other space with Celery Stalkers except for the tiles in front of or behind the Tall-nuts. They will assassinate the entire zombie force. You can also use Fume-shrooms or Laser Beans instead of Tall-nuts; Laser Beans make a great choice for farming, however, you will have to be more precise in where the Celery Stalkers are planted (ideally behind a tombstone and/or one tile ahead of the Celery Stalker behind it).
