Mission 07

My favourite one of all time, though conversely, one that always seem to be bugged, in this mission you actually get an allied town that attacks the enemy. Sounds great!
Except for the fact that the AI sucks at path finding, leading to swarms of militia attacking in single file. Woo hoo.

The village to your north churns out militia quite fast, use them to your advantage.













The enemy is about to swarm across the bridge at
you. You should be able to beat them with a few fighting men left over. Anything more than 0 left will do.









Get rid of their garrison by baiting them straight into your ally's hoards of militia. There are 2 groups of pikemen, 1 of swordsmen and 1 of crossbowmen.








A battle with armourned soldiers versus militia is surprisingly one sided. To the militia (thanks to your archers).











Burn the usual buildings down once your archers have destroyed the watch towers.














There are more to them on top of the mountain. Hopefully your ally whittles them down a few. Support their first attack with your left over troops. Together you should be able to wipe out the crossbowmen.








Build a big town. You have lots of space and resources so it should be pretty easy. You don't need to go overboard with weapons and armour, only about 40 or so men can take the rest of the blue base out.




Use pikemen/lancers supported by crossbowmen
, who are the most damaging unit in the game, according to my manual. Strange, I would have thought the Knights were the best.
