You will assume control of Austrian forces, fighting mainly against Turks.
Here, the difficulty level is very uneven.
Walkthrough for all missions can be found below.
You’ll begin this mission with a small fortress, containing only your production buildings.
Move your cuirassier to your commander, and begin training units.
You have a number of resources to spare, so set the continuous unit training.
One barracks should construct only pikemen, while the second one only musketeers.
Stables are up to you, but light cavalry (Croatians) should be the best choice.
The enemy employs mainly cavalry; he will also send horse archers to harass you.
Your task is to conquer and destroy 5 Turkish fortresses, found on the map.
Turks will begin to run south, to the port.
There is a group of peasants to the right from the village, who will join your ranks.
The port contains new enemy units, but they still shouldn’t pose any difficulties.
When you take over the port, you’ll receive transport ships and free the peasants.
If it’s necessary, research few technologies.
Create more troops, as you will need them to attack the first fortress(2).
Only then you’re able to take on the fortress in the upper right corner(3).
When you gather the necessary amount of soldiers, mount an assault on the fortresses.
As a result, the enemy will detonate the remaining buildings.
Use the ships to transfer your troops out of the fortress.
Place your troops near the entrance to the gorge which leads to the fortress.
Send your hero to be able to recruit them.
You should get them, as they have a lot of firepower.
Now you’re able to destroy the northern fort, which has only a skeleton crew.
Constant harassment from the horse archers is probably unbearable by now.
Turks train them in the south-western fort.
This should be your next target.
Assume positions before the fort, and prepare your bombards.
The enemy constantly trains new forces there, and this is the only active enemy building in this mission.
Additionally, shrapnel will kill some of the soldiers.
Then, use all your cannons, and create a breach in the wall.
Watch for the towers' range; remember to place your cannons in some distance from each other.
Shrapnel and shards should deal extra, albeit small damage.
When the path is ready, use howitzers to attack the janissaries.
Then, send your infantry and cavalry.
The fortress is yours.
Now, the last fortress shouldn’t pose a problem.
Then, move all your artillery and destroy the walls.
All is left to do is to send the final order to storm the fortress.
