Second to last Eastern Overlord campaign mission.
Generals used: The 4 free ones plus Kutuzov and Bolivar.
On turn 1 you have to do a good bit of micro.
First, demolish the stable and build a factory in its place.
Second, upgrade your city to level 5.
Third, use the military tactic Promotion on your rocket artillery.
Fourth, build a Ship of the Line and put Falsen on it.
Fifth, research Forced March in the academy. Very useful.
Sixth, build Elite Infantry for Bolivar.
I'll provide a picture in my next post of how your position should look after all of this. Make sure you build rocket artillery on round 2 for Jourdan.
Advance along the coast, using your navy to kill the enemy ships and making sure you kill enemy artillery units. After capturing the first city, you'll get a wave of enemy units. Leave Wittgenstein behind with Bolivar to kill them. You can spam pretty good in this mission once you take Istanbul, which is what your Rocket artillery will be doing.
After taking Istanbul, advance past the fortress and take the next objective. Don't bother wasting time destroying it, it doesn't hurt too much. Your artillery should have full health at this point so don't be scared to put them in range for the sake of attacking the city. Now after you take that objective, advance towards the last one while ignoring the cities on either side. No time for that.
The Ottoman general in the West will be attacking your ally the entire mission but generally he will have trouble gaining ground. I killed him and his units with militia so he's harmless.
I'll be posting pics of the mission in my next post.
