| - This scenario is different from most scenarios, since the player cannot make economic buildings at all. The player cannot construct Mills, Lumber Camps, Mining Camps and Farms. The player may however build Town Centers. Houses also cannot be constructed, but the player will always stay at the population limit of 125, even without Houses. The player starts with four Villagers which must be protected from attacks, since if they die, the player will have to convert enemy Villagers to get more. The player starts with 300 food, 300 wood, 300 gold and 150 stone and outside a few scattered trees and some stone the player will initially have access to resources only through the Market and by building Feitorias.

| - This scenario is different from most scenarios, since the player cannot make economic buildings at all. The player cannot construct Mills, Lumber Camps, Mining Camps and Farms. The player may however build Town Centers. Houses also cannot be constructed, but the player will always stay at the population limit of 125, even without Houses. The player starts with four Villagers which must be protected from attacks, since if they die, the player will have to convert enemy Villagers to get more. The player starts with 300 food, 300 wood, 300 gold and 150 stone and outside a few scattered trees and some stone the player will initially have access to resources only through the Market and by building Feitorias. Soon after the scenario begins, the player will be attacked by War Elephants from Kolathiri Raja and Cannanore, while Zamorin of Calicut will attack the player from the water with his ships. The ships can be taken care of by the player's own ships or the Bombard Towers near the coast. The War Elephants should be countered by the player's Halberdiers and Hand Cannoneers, or converted by the player's Monks. Once all the enemy units are defeated, the player will get their objective - either to defeat Kolathiri Raja and Zamorin of Calicut or to build a Wonder and defend it for 200 years. Once the objective has been given, there are some things that must be done really quickly. Immediately the player should rebuild the Gate that was destroyed, making sure that the Gate is kept locked. Then use the Bombard Cannon to destroy the nearby houses of Kolathiri Raja from inside the base. Delete the Pavilions inside the base, since they serve no purpose and only take up valuable space. Then make two Fire Ships and two Demolition Ships at the Dock. Soon, Francisco will tell the player to destroy the Zamorin's Cannon Galleon to prevent him from making more. Once the ships are done, take all of the Caravels and Fire Ships toward the Zamorin's Docks to the east of the player's base. Use the Caravels and Fire Ships to attack his ships and draw attention and use the Demolition Ships to go toward the Cannon Galleon and destroy it. Once done, bring all the ships back to the base and let the Bombard Towers sink the following ships. For every building that the player destroys, they will get 75 wood, 80 food, 55 gold and 40 stone. The trick in the initial part is to use this loot and spend it in a wise way so that enough soldiers can be produced to counter the enemy waves. Since all the enemies only make ranged and cavalry units, ONLY Elite Skirmishers and Pikemen should be produced. Whenever the enemy attacks the base, keep the Gate closed and use ranged units, along with the Bombard Cannon to kill them. If Kolathiri Raja attacks with Crossbowmen, protect the Bombard Cannon and use the Skirmishers to take them down. Once every enemy soldier is killed, use the Bombard Cannon to destroy nearby Houses. As soon as enough resources are collected, the player should build a Market, since by now the player will probably have a surplus of unused Stone which can be sold for other more useful resources. The player should also build a Siege Workshop soon to make more Bombard Cannons. After all the nearby buildings are down, the player should come out of the base and bring all of their units. By now, the player should have at least 3 Bombard Cannons and around 6-7 Skirmishers and Pikemen. The two initial Monks are very important to heal injured soldiers so they should be placed near the Bombard Cannons. Use the Bombard Cannons to destroy the Guard Towers while the other units protect it from enemy soldiers. Don't forget to bring all units back to the Monks if they are injured. After destroying enough buildings, see if the amount of Pikemen and Skirmishers will be enough to take on the enemy units. If not, make more Pikemen and Skirmishers. If they are enough for now, make more Bombard Cannons. Repeat till most buildings, including the Castle and other Towers have been destroyed. The player can also build Feitorias if they have the resources. By this point, again, the player will have surplus unused stone but this time, the player should use it to build a Castle outside their base for additional protection. Destroy all of the buildings, even Houses of Kolathiri Raja, and when enough loot has been collected, another Castle can be built for additional protection. By now the player should have around 6-7 Bombard Cannons and 20 Skirmishers and Pikemen. Here, the player should decide which objective to go for - building the Wonder or defeating the two enemies. Putting all four Villagers to work on the Wonder, it will take around 20 minutes to build it, after which the player has to defend it for 200 years (around 15 minutes in the real world), after which the player will be victorious. So if the player can wait for 35 minutes, they should build a Wonder. But if the player wants to defeat Kolathiri Raja and the Zamorin of Calicut, it should be smooth sailing from here on. Half of Kolathiri Raja's base has already been destroyed, the rest of his buildings can easily be destroyed by the Bombard Cannons. His Town Centers and economic buildings are outside the walls so be sure to bring them down. Once enough buildings have been destroyed, Kolathiri Raja will surrender. In order to defeat Zamorin of Calicut, the player will need a navy. A few Caravels should do. Now the player should upgrade their soldiers and get all the relevant Blacksmith upgrades. Now go on to Zamorin's base, destroy his Towers and bring all of the player's units inside. Make the Halberdiers attack the Camels and War Elephants while Skirmishers get the ranged units and use the Caravels to attack him by sea. Once he has been cornered and all of his soldiers are killed, destroy his buildings and kill his Villagers. Once he is down by a lot of units and buildings, he will surrender and the player will be victorious.
