Ismail

Campaign mission sequence

Protege a Ismail cuando empiece con pocas tropas y reúne aliados antes de desafiar fortificaciones importantes. En las misiones con economía, establece defensas antes de alejar al ejército; algunas posiciones capturadas convierten edificios y recursos cercanos para tu causa. (The Red Hats, bastión, Road to Royalty, unidades, Alexander Safavi, puesto de avanzada, The Fallen Amir, Kan Shaybani, Babur, Khata’i)

• 1. The Red Hats — Guide young Ismail through hostile territory to Erzincan, gathering scattered caballería while avoiding patrols. Once the town is secured, recruit Turkoman allies, prepare for Farrukh Yasar’s return, and take the Shirvan bastión to complete Ismail’s first conquest.
• 2. Road to Royalty — Ismail and the Qizilbash face a larger Aq Qoyunlu force before turning toward Tabriz. Build defenses while preparing the allied army, weaken the city by capturing its nobles, then bring a force of 20 unidades into the marked district to claim it.
• 3. Alexander Safavi — Ismail’s expanding realm is threatened by three powerful neighboring bases. Secure the nearby Ottoman puesto de avanzada for Qizilbash reinforcements, build a strong economía and defenses, then defeat Baghdad and both Aq Qoyunlu positions in whichever order best suits your army.
• 4. The Fallen Amir — Fight through Kan Shaybani’s army to secure Merv, then support Babur and the Qizilbash as the Uzbek threat grows. Recover Herat and Samarkand to strengthen your allies before launching a major assault on the three Uzbek Castles.
• 5. Khata’i — An opening ambush leaves Ismail’s army weakened before the Ottoman advance on Tabriz. Use the preparation period to secure the city, remove nearby threats, and gather support. Capturing Carro de reliquiass can rally Qizilbash forces before the main assault.
