Introduction: Arkantos reaches Troy in time to reinforce the Greek armies. Now
he must break through Troy's outer defenses.
The first thing to do is lead all your soldiers east, to the settlement. Build
a Town Centre there.
After building, you are told to destroy the heavily guarded Trojan docks. Take
your time, and build up an army, consisting of mainly archers and ships. Make
sure you advance to the Classical Age, by building a temple. Also note that
after destroying one dock, you will recive reinforcements, meaning you should
attack the docks one at a time and harm them, not do a two pronged attack.
The eastern dock is easy to destroy. Draw the soldiers out with Ajax/Arkantos,
then bring the rest of your troops and destroy the gate, TC, and dock.
Agamemmnon lands with a large army, so you can go and attack the other dock
straight away(if you want). But be warned, when his army lands, your base will
be attacked, so you should proably defend before you attack.
Also be warned that you'll be regularly attacked from now on, so be prepared to
ring the town bell.
