I'm playing this mission on hard. I'm the first to admit I'm not a particularly good player, only ever playing against the AI, but this mission is something else. From the start you are assailed by not one, not two, but three enemies, all of which are in imperial age, whilst you start out in castle age. The game lures you into attacking the Burgundian town but this is an obvious trap. You will soon have so many rams and trebuchets rammed up your hole you can't move. I employed an unorthodox strategy of ignoring Burgundy, who in turn are ignoring me, and settling on the eastern side of the river. Whilst this is definitely easier, Shrewsbury seems to have gone into overdrive. He's sending CONSTANT cavaliers at me, constantly disrupting my economy. I've walled off the rover fords, but his rams and trebuchets knock them down in seconds. There's only so long I can hold off imperial age aggression with castle age pikes and horseman.
I expect a challenge when I play on hard, but this is crazy. It reminds me of the final Sundjata mission on release. Are there any tips for this mission?
