TSK 9 tip for an easier win

I tried searching, but TSK 9 was to common.
I also looked through all 3 pages of topics, but nothing on this tip.

So, if you want an easier win at TSK 9 there is something you can do at the start of the game.

As you can see in the screenshot, at the start the towers don't have ammo.
So you can just walk behind them and destroy their storage building and other things.
Eventually they starve to death.

Then you only have to deal with half the purples forces and the other color that is building in the right down corner.
You can also build all the way up there and get the resources, they haven't been drained far if you go right at the start.

Note: I do remember the towers having ammo at the start of the original, but that was easily undone by charging 3 guys past it. a few might die but eventually they didn't have ammo and you could just walk past them

Yeah that´s nothing special though. I did that hundred of times in the original game. Right now like Disco said, the stones can be placed from the beginning, so that shouldn´t be a problem/way to cheat :D

I remember doing this when I first made it to this mission except I destroyed the storehouse and that usually killed them.

i was referring to ai auto attack, which means that if he tries to sneak in the ai attacks him;)

Filling towers at the start of the campaign missions would be fine by me, at least on maps where it's possible to rush the AI base.

That the AI attacks when you attack it's city is mandatory if it's going to be changed.

Like I said, with charging the barbarians you can still empty the tower and kill them.
not when they attack.

Which version of the Remake? I played this game a few versions before and it worked well, maybe the ai has too few serfs so there is no serfs avaible, that can bring food?!

Then it´s rather not possible what Killer wrote. WIthout any attack the ai shouldn´t die by hunger ;)
