Overview
Jihad! (co-op) requires the players to defeat two of Ascalon, Tyre, and Tiberias while stopping Ascalon’s Wonder from surviving the full timer. Coordinate the starting economies and share the attack fronts.
Plan and execution
Move Villagers toward the ally’s Market to establish a second Town Center if the starting location is exposed. Use one player to build the economy and pressure a nearby city while the other secures Relics and contests Ascalon’s Wonder threat. Split siege between two reachable targets, maintaining the 120-population cap and keeping a force ready to respond if the Wonder timer becomes urgent.
Risks and adaptation
The players cannot build a Wonder or Elite Cannon Galleons, so do not plan around those options. Ascalon’s timer continues while you fight elsewhere; track it and redirect siege if the deadline approaches.
