Resumen
Basil Boioannes fortifies Troia as rival powers ataque across southern Italia. Strengthen its single Castillo, use alliances and raids to reduce pressure, and choose whether to hold the fortaleza or defeat the two main armies. (ataque, Italia, Castillo, fortaleza)
Player approach
The mission includes a scripted ally switch, and the defense is shaped by river crossings and walls. Prepare for Capua’s betrayal before investing in a broad field army: a small force of Petards can answer the change, while carefully placed walls reduce the number of fronts the single Castillo must cover.
Step-by-step plan
On difficulties where Capua becomes hostile, train Petards in advance and fortaleza them sheltered so they can strike its Castillo when the switch occurs. Use a few Villagers to wall the narrow northern approach and cerrar unnecessary entradas while leaving one route under your control. Contest the river with Galleons that can pressure towers from beyond their range; use Dromons or Buque de demolicións against clustered crossings or asedio. Fortaleza a ground reserve near the open route, then reclaim the Castillo and hire mercenaries as soon as the scenario allows. (Castillo, Fortaleza, Castillo, desencadenador)
Risks and adjustments
Capua’s betrayal conditions vary by difficulty, so do not spend every resource on Petards without checking the current scenario state. Sealing every opening can alter enemy movement or trap your own troops. Prioritize hostile asedio at the river crossing and maintain enough tierra defense in case the fleet must leave. (recursos, acuartelar, fortaleza)
Focused strategy página
Prepare a response to the ally switch, use walls to channel tierra attacks, and control the river with a compact fleet. Fortaleza a ground reserve at the deliberate opening and use the captured Castillo and mercenaries to decide whether to continue holding Troia or move toward defeating the main armies.
