El Cid 6 - Reconquista (Hard) | Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition

Even in death, I still serve! Wait, wrong franchise...  Holy, what a badass couple! And of course, what a good, loyal boy Bavieca was! This part of the story is most likely not real, but it is still a cool story nevertheless As for the scenario, where on earth is our Wonder?!?! Is it... because we struck Berenguer in the previous map instead of waiting for the Wonder to be fully constructed??? Nah, jk. Of course, it has no correlation, but it is still kinda funny how the whole Wonder is just gone in this scenario.  We get tons of gold though, and just like the previous scenario, we should expand outside our walls as soon as possible. Not before we take down the Black Guards Army though. Luckily, they are not that much of a threat. North of our base, they have some Archery Ranges and Rams ready, and on the east, they have a Castle and a few sieges. Rush their northern base immediately. From what I've seen, they don't really train new units, so once you wipe their starting army, your Rams can flatten them out. The east side poses more of a challenge. We want to bait their sieges outside of their Castle range before we snipe them out. Once that is done, our Trebuchets can do the remaining job.  Before we strike south toward the Black Guards Navy though, we want to make sure our shorelines are well-defended from the upcoming Yusuf transport ships. Produce some naval units and be ready to interfere the second you see Yusuf's transport ships coming. Even if you miss them, it is not that big of a deal honestly, but being able to take them down before they land will help a lot.  As for the Black Guards Navy, they don't really have any way to take down our Trebuchets besides sending all of their remaining army straight into our faces. Just protect your Trebuchets well while they take down their Castle and Town Center. Don't forget to explore the map, snipe any of their unprotected villagers, and once they are defeated, we get a whole half of the map all to ourselves, baby!  Yusuf is kinda hard to take down right away. Their shores are well-defended with extremely long-range towers. Because of that, we want to mass up some navy before taking Yusuf down. In the meantime, your navy can also sink every single transport ship he sends to our shore. Once you take down their towers, your navy can wipe everything out near the shoreline, and then you can just send one or two transport ships with a bunch of units as a cleanup party. Pretty easy!  Honestly, I kinda dislike the fact that we didn't really get to play all six scenarios as the Spanish, but the sheer badassery and loyalty between El Cid and Ximena completely makes up for it honestly  Oh... now that I think about it, we are about to play against the Spanish next, aren't we..?  Uhm.. I have sent the traditional shield, arrows, and cloaks to our enemies. Prepare your jaguar and eagle banners, because tomorrow we are marching out into the forests in the name of the Aztec Empire. The Montezuma campaign begins tomorrow! 🐆🦅 💡 Tip of the day: Use your warships as a meatshield to protect your Cannon Galleons from the towers! Yusuf's towers on this map have an insane range that can easily take down your Cannon Galleons. Since the AI always target the very first ship it sees, send in a few Galleys or Fire Ships first to take the tower aggro. Then you can safely bring in your Cannon Galleons to flatten the towers from a distance!  🇮🇩 Short, heavily edited videos are coming soon in Bahasa Indonesia on the main channel.
