As long as you don't run into catapults you are basically untouchable. Or a very big cavalry group. Something along those lines. But even then you need a lot to truly punish them and when they are protected, good luck getting to them. I also like to supplement them with Scythe Chariots when possible, they can quickly cut down enemy catapults

Pathfinding is horrible, I agree. But the missions were designed around a pop limit of 50, increasing it to 100 would make them much easier. And you can increase it past 50 in random map games.

@@vanle3 idk man, 50 just doesn't seem to be enough sometimes, for a decent economy you need around 20 villagers, then for missions like this you need a good amount of triremes (you had like a dozen or so in the last mission? I think that's a good number across all naval missions tbh), for the most part a good army (except for things like the last mission where it's not necessary), all that together you are pretty much right on the line, and if there's a contingency it would be rough. Even if 100's too much 75 still makes a good alternative

I don't know, I probably forgot?

@@vanle3 NEXT TIME UPGRADE YOUR STORAGE PIT,MARKETS IMPROVEMENT FASTER TO PLAY FASTER,TO HAVE MORE POWER QUICKLY,I ADVICED TO ALL

@@TheFirstGoomba Oh I agree and that is correct. I think what sometimes keeps me from playing the campaign efficiently is the paranoia of 3 minute attacks where you have nothing to defend yourself because you spent it on your economy. That being said, sometimes I just forget or didn't pay the attention I should have.

dude i did the same thing in the definitive edition without knowing it was an old strategy from the original, took me 2 minutes to beat the scenario.
