Do you even need the Trojan Horse? 

Thank you for carrying the AOM community lmao

Troy clearly made it up with the horse story. They couldn`t say: We lost to a pack of dinos and a guy fisting our towers

My father used to always bypass building the horse in this mission when he let me watch as a kid. I was really surprised that it was such a lesser known strategy when I started engaging with the community. It's nice that the game allows you the option to take a completely different path from the intended route like this.

I have some mental problems with AOM missions : I need to clear EVERYTHING. Trees, animals, destroy all the ennemy buildings... A mission that would take 25 mins at most ends up taking 2 hours 🤣 This mission was a pain, not being able to build siege towers to get those towers took quiet a time. Great vid !

24:53 there's the guilty Villager!

This brought back some fun memories 😂thank you for making this video!

I discovered this when fooling around with the Wrath of the Gods cheats.

On the topic of diverting from campaign objectives, in the scenario before this one (the one where you rescue Ajax and join forces with him), you can technically destroy the enemy town center before building your own. The AI isn't aggressive until you build your town center and I think they have limited production until then (but still make some units), and have only comparatively few workers gathering resources. There's a path to enter their base with your starting army by taking down just a fence and a tower, which you can do with almost no permanent damage thanks to heroes, and with some micro you can take down some of their production and their town center and still get away with Arkantos and some units. It makes for a fun alternative approach, feels like doing a surprise attack instead of taking the time to rally more troop. (There's an exploitable trigger in the mission before that one as well, where the AI is passive until you build a town center, but you can delay that, make a port and some storehouses, and collect resources and build to your heart's content. But that's just an exploit rather than a challenge)

Man congratz for this effort and never giving up even when u "fail" when a random vill built the trojan horse 😅 ur the best. Keep going with the content! 😉👍

The lone builder of the horse is the real villan of the story jajajajajaj

Hey man! AoM was a game I played a lot in my childhood, and your videos bring back very good nostalgic memories for me. A hug from Brazil

farming hydra heads brought back some memories :D

Ah, this video inspired me to try this challenge myself! I did it on EE so Im not sure if the difficult is different but this was my approach: Since these Trojan snobs dont make heros at all (only the ones already present in the map) I simply went full Manticore + Minotaur (food, wood and favour army you dont even need gold). With enough waves you'll quickly tear through their defenses (use minotaurs to target production buildings). The hardest part for me was realising my human units were just wasting population space.

Get pegasus get underworld passage get some Zeus hoplites GG maybe work?

aom on top.Great gameplay man ,I mean its hella hard to do that in the first place

do it in retold on titan difficulty

You should of walled them in

I'm wondering, if the helepolis would be there aswell, so you could make the last part a bit easier

I know tthis video is a bit older but there are a few mechanics / hints I would recommend for doing this, or well, how I managed to do it. 1. Use the Manticor god and mix them in as ranged units while you are tanking with minotaurs 2. Use the counter archers for thr toxotes or else hippicons because both are not countered at all once you are within troy 3. Micro the heroes and especially Odysseus (no path finding needed) on the Lions because they do a lot damage 4. For weakened units you are able to use the healing temple tech. I would also recommend going for the other gate first because you will be able to take out all the barracks, temples, etc. First without getting the aggro of the main army at the front gate :)

I never knew you could win like this

I guess, Apollo-Manticore ( healing from temple) + minotaur might be better to defend the small area

I would add using a Market to balance your eco from raids from the north gate and your vils forward building

Insane! Iam love you work❤

awesome video, love the editing

Great effort man! What a grind.

In on of the dwarf level you can destroy the tataros gate yourself after destroying the ramm

how do we change the interface? Looks cooler that way

I used to beat this level with o canada

Make a tutorial for Set god

i had a go at doing it before watching your video. but the problem is they don't let you go to the 4th age, and you can't build siege. which makes it nearly impossible

Troy cheats by having Forest Fire and Hetairoi with Thundering Hooves.

Answer no bit yes

On cd version when i got it ages ago i was messing with cheats, and it basically skipped mission or two. This waa good as everytime i played AOM and those few missions come i always hated those few missions

restoration heals way faster on units that arent attacking btw

In the animation the gates are no longer there
