GUIDE · BATTLE STRATEGY
Preparing for Battle Wallace village takeover
Preparing for Battle teaches the opening through a series of flags. Add units at each stop, destroy the Outpost, rescue William Wallace, then use the captured village to reach Feudal Age and form the attack force.

Overview
Preparing for Battle teaches the opening through a series of flags. Add units at each stop, destroy the Outpost, rescue William Wallace, then use the captured village to reach Feudal Age and form the attack force.
Plan and execution
Move the starting Militia between flags to receive the additional Militia, Knight, and Archers. At the third flag, destroy the English Outpost and continue along the road to free William Wallace. Once the village transfers to you, queue Villagers and establish the economy. Advance to Feudal Age, build a northern Barracks, train three Militia and upgrade them to Men-at-Arms before joining Wallace’s gathered army.
Risks and adaptation
The early route is scripted and the small force should not be wasted in optional fights. Secure the village economy before spending on the Feudal attack.
