Crusade: The Fourth Crusade
Scenario Briefing: Historical - This scenario depicts the final stage of the siege of Galata. The town has been breached and the Crusader forces are pouring into the area with the intent of breaking the chain that blocks the Venetian fleet from entering the Golden Horn. Its breakage will allow for the siege of Constantinople to begin. And with its capture, the Crusaders hope to begin their journey to the Holy Land for the recapture of Jerusalem. This being the intended purpose of the Crusade from its inception. To achieve victory as the Crusader, you must not only clear out the city of Galata, but must drive toward the exit hex and remove as many friendly units from the map as possible. The exit hex is located at hex {0, 23}.
Recommended Rules: [Default]
Intended to be played as the Anti-Crusader alliance against the Crusader Alliance AI or Head-to-Head.
