Age of Empires 2: The Conquerors Walkthrough Montezuma Part 5 - The Triple Alliance Part 2

Difficulty Level: Hard (Hardest Level on Conquerors Disk)
Once again, I employ my traditional time-lapse strategy of doing much mundane activities off-screen. Those activities here in part 5 include walling off my chunk of land, organizing my resource gatherers, "teching" up where necessary, and walling off Texcoco's unit producers. As far as the video you see, I use some trusty Petard raids to raise all 4 of the Tlaxcalan Town Centers. I also prepare for the betrayals of both Tlacopan and Texcoco by building Castles in their towns and placing Petards to destroy the main structures in their base.

Petards again! I wish ensemble studios didn't put petards into the game or at least put some requirements on them. Move them to imperial age, chemistry research, and increase cost 100 food and 100 gold. This way people will stop using the all the time and will start thinking more strategically. But because of their easy availability it reduces game strategic value and challenge almost to 0. They just make the game too easy even on hard. I played this game many times and almost never used them.

@vga267137 I definitely see where you're coming from, and I do agree with you. I'm going to have to say you're a better man than me then, as I have found myself lured into using "strategyless" Petard.

I think that transport that you were using was the one that spawned at the beginning of the scenario, which is why Careening didn't register on it. Your other transport had Careening registered.

@JairCrawford It's how the designers wanted it.

amazing video keep up the good work

[qballcc7]

@hell24681 Hey thanks man.

[TheBaconStar]

you missed the temple where you can upgrade ten of your jaguar warriors into beasty jaguar with 450 pts of health

[YahiroYamaha]

I like that strategy. Not counting the drawbacks, the scenario could be finished in about an hour or so.

[qballcc7]

@TehCybernerd Okay, I'll try it.

[qballcc7]

@MegaBobbery Yeah, I'm aware of it. It's not worth it as I have no need to produce any infantry and then use any infantry in this scenario, void of a few Eagle Warriors to scout.

[qballcc7]

@TheBaconStar Yeah, I know. I'm into infantry in this scenario though. They're utterly worthless in this scenario.

@TheBaconStar Wut?
