This campaign spans the history of the most infamous trading association of the Middle Ages: the Hanseatic League. From the early days of the German trading settlements, to the 1227 war for independance against Denmark, to the legendary trading expeditions to Novgorod, to the Hanseatic League's involvement in the 30 Years' War, this campaign details the treachery and intrigue of the organisation that led to the rise of the European merchant class.
The campaign has four scenarios, all of which are B&D (don't be scared off! I've made it as streamlined and fast-paced as possible, so you're not sitting on your ass building stuff for 3 hours) with elements of other styles.
As with Wanton Destruction, cutscenes and exposition are kept to a minimum. There are multiple custom AI files ensuring realistic computer opponents and allies.
One of the things I like about AoK is it isn't just about decimating everything in your path. You can trade, and build wonders, and collect relics, and negotiate alliances with other players. This is a side of the game I feel is often neglected, and I always wanted to make a campaign that emphasised it. Well...here it is.

Another Problem: Since you didn't mention that a monastery must survive, I let it be destroyed by the enemy and I have no place to keep the relic which my monk picked up. I Used the auto-win code to get to level 2. Second scenario is good too, with a good map design. I chose to defy the Denmark king and they crushed one of my allies with tons of paladins. Raiders have their stance set to ally to player 1. Is that a bug? [Edited on 01/23/08 @ 02:54 AM]

"Raiders have their stance set to ally to player 1. Is that a bug?"
No, it's a feature. The AI wouldn't work properly any other way. If they are set to enemy they just gang up on player 1 and don't bother attacking your allies like they're supposed to. I figured that it makes sense that an band of raiders wouldn't attack an army, but WOULD attack unarmed villagers, so I set their stance to player 1 to ally. |
