All Roads Lead to a Besieged City outer-objective route
All Roads Lead to a Besieged City can be completed through objectives outside Rome. Remove the three southern Watch Towers and collect available refugees instead of entering the heavily defended city.
Overview
All Roads Lead to a Besieged City can be completed through objectives outside Rome. Remove the three southern Watch Towers and collect available refugees instead of entering the heavily defended city.
Plan and execution
Move along the east bank to find Gaia refugees and recruit them for the march. Cross the river by the small island south of the bridge rather than using the guarded crossing. Destroy the eastern tower first, then reach the western bank for the other two while avoiding inland Watch Towers and Roman patrols. Keep a small force with the refugees so they can support the objective fights.
Risks and adaptation
Rome’s defenses make a direct entry unnecessary and dangerous. The bridge is not the safe crossing route; use the southern island and keep the army away from tower fire.
