As you can see from the
map above, the passage is now closed. Since you are
starting off with a solid infrastructure, you will only have to work on gearing up your
economy.
There is very little raw materials in the main part of your colony
(except fish). For this reason it would be wise to set up a trade route early on to the
land mass in the northwest.
You should also get an early start on building a tool smith's
works and send the goods produced to the new colony there where you can set up mining
facilities. Of course, it is also a good idea to build a couple fisherman's huts there.
You should secure the passage to
your opponent early, ideally using large towers.
As soon as your defenses are stong
enough, you should destroy the castles of the Amazons with your cannons. Don't forget to
reload.
In this way you can lure your opponent into
bringing his troops into the trap (your well protected fortress) and you won't have to
battle against a huge army later.
All of your soldiers should have the highest rank and should also
have a fighting strength of at least 70%. This will make it easier to defeat the Amazons.
It is possible for you to land at the narrow place (in the north
of the Amazon territory) with transport ships and then capture the large and small towers
there, choking off your opponent's supplies of coal and iron ore.
You can then launch a second attack in the south and cripple the
production of iron bars there. There should then be no further problems taking control of
the rest of the enemy territory. Make use of your cannons to shorten the process of
capturing the remaining towers.
