Tropical Island 2

Description
After your fight with the King you had to flee, again. Sadly, your boat got you stranded on an abandoned island, again. This time it seems more Asian, though. There is just salty water and ruins everywhere. And the worst, you got separated from your main troops, or whats left of it. Luckily you got an ally, the leader of another Assassin cult, to be precise Babylons, to support you

Read the story and tipps, you will get important information!!!

General Tipps:
  • You are not allowed to raise taxes, but you have one miss click which wont kill you
    instantly, but still beware of the consequences
  • Capture as many warlords as possible
  • Look for supply caches!
  • Try to complete the bonus objectives
  • Always save the game! Unless you want to lose because you raised taxes by accident
  • You can build in shallow water, so use it!


Mission 1: Kill Olaf and free your leader

Damn this seems like a Dj vu: You got stranded and stuck again? Thats unlucky! Even more unlucky that Olaf has turned his back on you and blocks the only way for your troops to free you. And only 2 troops survived. You should use them wisely. Fortunately, your ally is willing to support you with more troops if you get far enough behind enemy lines
Tipps: Destroying ruins will get you a head start in the next mission
Use your troops wisely, not all can die
Try to find the caches for the bonus objective
Always look if you got backup, they may still be at the beginning
The ninja Ai sucks, so if they dont go through the gate just send them ontop and then to the other side


Mission 2: Conquer two warlords

After the battle you are left with even less troops, but you did it, you killed Olaf for his treason. Now your troops should go to your keep and free you. But the danger is not over: The rulers of this island have noticed you and want you dead. To withstand them you must build a good economy and conquer their warlords to weak their troops and diminish their power. Your ally will help you to defend and if you do some favors for him, he will pay you in various ways.
Tipps: Dont raise taxes if you dont want to die early
Good economy is key, so look for valuable resources you can use
Try to find resource caches!


Mission 3: Destroy the Kaiser

You stand you position bravely, but its no use. You must kill the enemy lords. Especially the Kaiser is attacking you ally constantly, and he will fall sooner or later. So, he is the first target. Try searching for weak points and make a strategic timed attack for success. But beware: Even If he dies there will still be his men to seek revenge, so do not feel too save.
Tipps: Try to use siege equipment
Wait for an good opportunity to strike


Mission 4: Murder the Inquisitor
You did it, the Kaiser is dead and you feel slightly relieved. Though it seems like the Inquisitor has also noticed. He will hunt you down, so its either him or you. His Castle is huge and well-guarded, with better troops and the high ground, but you will surely find a way to infiltrate it
Tipps: He has strong armored units, your arrows wont to much
Look for multiple ways to sneak in his castle

Mission 5: Leave this Island for good
You did it, you destroyed all enemys that were a threat for you and your ally. Now the cult leader shows you the way to get of this land, its through the ocean through low water. He tells you to prepare, as there is a enemy tribe on this way, that wont be pleased seeing you in their home
Tipps: This is the final mission, so use what you have left

Bonus objectives:
Complete these for bonus resources, troops and other things that will help you
1: Find the 4 hidden caches in the starting areas until day 6(get 100 gold from them) for reinforcements
2: Get rid of the Inquisitors troops guarding the secret shortcut to your ally, for heavy artillery
3: Build 2 stables until day 30 for troops and goods
4: Collect 40 Iron until day 35 for a diplomatic boost
5: After day 30, manage to get 5000 gold, this will unlock a steady number of reinforcements for you and your ally
6: Capture all 5 warlords so your enemys can feel the wrath of God!



Find the clothes:
There are a total of 4 clothes well hidden in tiny caches around the map. If you find one you get unique reinforcements for each and if you find all you get a secret mission and ending. I will post clues about where they are a few weeks after the release.

I had to change some pathing for units as it broke some invasions, so dont worry too much if it is sometimes questionable. Please leave feedback for this map, especially if you notice bugs. Also if you are one of the Map Creating Contest judges, hi :).
