Scourge of the Levant Town Center and Relic start
Scourge of the Levant begins with an army and Fishing Ships but no settled economy. Capture the Gaia Town Center immediately, protect its Villagers, and use the scenario’s building rewards to replace spent resources.
Overview
Scourge of the Levant begins with an army and Fishing Ships but no settled economy. Capture the Gaia Town Center immediately, protect its Villagers, and use the scenario’s building rewards to replace spent resources.
Plan and execution
Send one Light Cavalry to claim the Gaia Town Center and put Fishing Ships on food. Protect the new workers as enemy attacks begin, then train a Transport Ship to move a Monk to the western island Relic. Use another Light Cavalry to locate the Mining Camp and its Relic. Raid exposed Markets, Docks, Town Centers, or Monasteries when the army can withdraw safely to gain resources for reinforcements.
Risks and adaptation
The captured Villagers are vulnerable as soon as the Town Center changes sides. Do not transport the Monk without naval cover, and avoid raiding a fortified building with an army too small to escape.
