Objectives

Main Objectives

• Defeat the Northern Rebels.
• Defeat the Eastern Rebels.
• Kill Jayaviravarman and defeat his army.

Secondary Objectives

• Conquer enemy towns by destroying the main fortification of each. Depending on the size of the town, this will either be a tower or the town Castle(s).

Hints

1. Suryavarman I's armies (Cyan and Green) are restricted to the Castle Age and their population limits are 125.
2. Do not neglect your navies. Controlling the Mekong River and its crossings will be vital to quelling the rebellion.
3. Attacks will arrive from all sides - be prepared to defend on multiple fronts.
4. Do not destroy what you can conquer. Enemy towns will surrender when their main fortification falls.
5. The armies of the various rebel groups have varying strengths and weaknesses. Monks are strong against elephant units but weak against Light Cavalry, for example.

Scouts

• The armies of Suryavarman I (Cyan and Green) control the Khmer capital of Angkor and a few minor towns to the west. They are faced with rebellion from multiple directions:
• The Northern Rebels (Red) hold several towns in the north of the map, and threaten Angkor with an army primarily composed of Crossbowmen, Light Cavalry, and Mangonels.
• The Eastern Rebels (Orange) control the rugged eastern portion of the map, employing a force of elephants, Scorpions, and Monks.
• Jayaviravarman's Army (Yellow) holds a cluster of towns straddling the southern reaches of the Mekong River. Droves of infantry units pour north towards Suryavarman's lands.
• Jayaviravarman (Purple) resides in his citadel in the south of the map, surrounded by his elite guard of heavy infantry.
