The aftermath and pre-game history sections are likewise informative and set the time period well. Instructions and Hints are very detailed and useful in regards to tactics applicable in the battle.

Nevertheless, the Teuton camp, the villages, and the forests your troops use to conceal ambushes are well-done and detailed.Ī lot of the fighting takes place in the Polish camp, and the proliferation of bushes there makes HD pathfinding somewhat difficult, but at no point did this become blatantly annoying.ĭespite a few spelling/grammatical errors in the in-game text, the story feels like an epic showdown for the fate of Eastern Europe. Map design is form over function: pretty much everything is there to suit the needs of the battle. The sound-track is fitting, and overall, the scenario isn't like anything you're likely to encounter in vanilla AoK. Scenario does a lot of cool things with triggers to set up a few of the cut-scenes. I've come close a few times, but it took me a while to devise a strategy that allowed me to finally claim a convincing victory. On Moderate, it's possible to master it within a few tries On Standard, the player can brute-force his way through, as allies' strength is boosted and they rely less on your intervention. I must note, that on Hard, the scripted nature of the scenario may get a bit annoying- when you've hit a cutscene for the tenth time in a row the novelty's work off, and you just want to issue your orders- but I found that once you're back in the action, it's so engrossing, these minute irritations are quickly forgotten.īalance is PERFECT. I have not encountered any bugs in over 15 playthroughs. Nevertheless, it is fast-paced and exciting, and although its fairly short, it is very memorable. It's tightly scripted in the beginning, and it takes probably over 5 minutes before the player is actually given control of any units to make meaningful actions. Scenario was tested using HD edition, on all 3 difficulty levels. The genre is best described as FF, although the tactical significance of the player's heroes may make RPS another valid descriptions. The player takes control of select portions of the Polish army in an attempt to defeat the Order. "Tannenberg 1410 AD" is a single-player scenario depicting a major battle between the Teutonic Order and the joint Polish and Lithuanian army.

All characters are based on true historical persons 3 different levels of playing (NORMAL, MODERATE, HARD) A lot of new sounds and music (original medieval soundtracks) More than 400 triggers for a single battle !!!! Comprehensive scenario instructions, hints and objectives Another approach to fixed force scenario (Increased HP extend the life of the unit and postpone the end of the battle, Extra attack value represents the morale of the troops, different events during the battle may change yours or your opponent\'s morale hardly.)
