Overview

The Burmese Tigers gives you three durable heroes and asks you to defeat the Mon King, with an optional five-minute target. Use the Arambai and Villagers to create a controlled lure rather than sending the heroes into the whole enemy camp.

Plan and execution

Scout the route to Takayutpi’s camp and watch the King’s trigger: he flees only when military units approach. Use Villagers and Arambai to draw him toward a position where the army can focus him, then preserve Bayinnaung and the other heroes for the continuing objectives. Collect the regenerative Toungoo Warrior heroes near the southeast when the opening pressure is contained, and wall the western or eastern resource approaches before expanding.

Risks and adaptation

The early King objective can draw the whole army away from the base if pursued carelessly. Keep the heroes alive for later fights and avoid sacrificing Villagers to the camp’s defenders when the optional timer is no longer achievable.
