User blog:Elijahhee/Fuck it... why should I cross the lake and build my base - La Noche Triste (Montezuma level 4)

Please raise your hand if any of you ever experienced headache in playing the La Noche Triste scenario of the Montezuma campaign :P

Cortéz immediately starts building a wonder in Tenochtitlan, and you must destroy it before the time runs out. You are to gather troops along the shores of Lake Texcoco, and you are told to sail across and set up your base, and you are asked to go to Tenochtitlan to convert some villagers for this purpose!

When I was being so 'obedient' and try to do whatever being told, I ended up being fucked up for being unable to defend myself, leave alone destroying the wonder. So I gave up.

I decided to try skipping the "setting up my base part" and just proceed to destroying the wonder as I reached the Tenochtitlan port. I killed the two Conquistadores there and destroyed the Conquered Aztec's gate, and quickly rushed into the wonder's site. I still have my onager. So I killed the builder and began attacking the incomplete wonder, with my onager and whatever troops I had. And I succeed! Yay!

I wonder how did the game designer(s) play this scenario... :-/
