El Cid 2 - The Enemy of my Enemy (Hard) | Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition

This scenario is basically just a matter of attacking quickly before the enemy has a chance to mass an army The Spanish rebel side on the west is well-defended with towers, so I highly recommend taking a detour to the undefended Moorish rebel Town Center instead. You can technically skip building your own Town Center entirely and just gather enough raw resources to make Rams, Monks, or Missionaries, but I personally prefer to drop a Town Center just to be completely safe.  Another massive benefit of striking the Moorish Town Center first is that we basically inherit a bunch of free farms, a great woodline, and a strategic entry point into Toledo. By utilizing the southern gate, your forces will immediately arrive right next to their main military production buildings, allowing you to take them down as fast as possible before they can even mass an army to fight back.  This path is also super close to the last relic located at the bottom of the map, which is guarded by a Castle. You can take another detour and use the bridge to reach the relic, but it is heavily defended by a bunch of towers, so just take the much easier option by building a dock and using a transport ship instead. Before you actually deliver the relics to the Imam, don't forget to take down some of the towers sitting across the river. Also, make sure to deliver all four relics simultaneously. Otherwise, you will have to deal with the Moorish warships 💡 Tip of the day: Since the Last Chieftains update, Missionaries can also pick up relics, so use Missionaries instead of regular Monks to carry relics across the map! Missionaries have better base movement speed, which allows them to snipe relics quickly and navigate across vast distances faster than regular Monks.  🇮🇩 Short, heavily edited videos are coming soon in Bahasa Indonesia on the main channel.
