Age of Empires III Part 14 walkthrough: strategies for the northern and southern bases, unit deployment, and defeating British attacks.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    As soon as you have the wood, build more units in the north; this also completes a secondary objective.
  2. 2
    In the north, group all units around the tower and manually manage each battle.
  3. 3
    Let the British approach the tower, then pull your units out from behind it to engage them one by one.
  4. 4
    Prevent the British from focusing solely on the tower; ensure they target your units while staying within the tower's range.
  5. 5
    Research Iroquois Morning Wars and Iroquois Lacrosse from the trading post when affordable.
  6. 6
    In the Fortress Age, research Iroquois Warrior Societies.
  7. 7
    By the Industrial Age, have thirty-seven units, including Nonahkee, positioned by the tower in Defend mode.
  8. 8
    Heal and replace units after each battle and watch for incoming enemy units.
  9. 9
    Repair the two crucial buildings and upgrade the tower when possible.
  10. 10
    Once Nonahkee is safe, build up an army in the south, aiming for the Industrial Age before attacking.
  11. 11
    A suggested southern army includes three mortars and about thirty other upgraded units.
  12. 12
    Consider using the Fort card to build a fort just south of the red gates.
  13. 13
    Use mortars to attack the gates and towers, drawing the British army out and causing them to prioritize your southern base.
  14. 14
    Send Nonahkee's army south to meet your main army near the British base.
  15. 15
    Upon meeting, a new objective may appear: DESTROY ALL THE BRITISH BUILDINGS TO UNITE KANYENKE AND NONAHKEE.
  16. 16
    With the entire map revealed, destroy all British buildings.
Tips
  • Max out all unit upgrades except healers in the north.
  • Nonahkee can heal companions by herself.
  • Mortars and a fort south of the red gates significantly disadvantage the British.
Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Help the French defeat the British by destroying British units on your side of the river.
  2. 2
    Build units and towers to protect your allies' base from early attacks.
  3. 3
    For attacking, use a mass brawl strategy with howitzers dealing damage.
  4. 4
    Eliminate all red units with your starting army, prioritizing falconets.
  5. 5
    After clearing initial units, you receive coureurs (peasants), a base, and new objectives: FIND AND DESTROY THE BRITISH FORT COMMAND BUILDING and FIND AND CONTROL THE ONLY TRADE ROUTE (300 XP).
  6. 6
    Build and develop your base.
  7. 7
    Assist your allies by defending against British units crossing the southern river.
  8. 8
    Advance to the Industrial Age as soon as possible, as there is limited mining and you need a plantation.
  9. 9
    Build many units, as British attacks across the southern river are frequent and numerous.
  10. 10
    Erect towers at the southern crossing for defense.
  11. 11
    Use the Fort card to build a fort, along with towers and falconets, for permanent defense.
  12. 12
    Ship in a falconet if possible to defend against early attacks and use towers until your army is ready.
  13. 13
    Bring in military units from your Home City.
  14. 14
    Once your plantation is up and town improvements are bought, things will become easier.
  15. 15
    Monitor your allies' town (yellow town) and quickly shift your army if a large British force attacks their base via the north crossing.
  16. 16
    Use howitzers, grenadiers, and halberdiers to attack the British base.
  17. 17
    After defeating another British attack, use mortars or howitzers to destroy the two towers at the far end of the southern crossing.
  18. 18
    Your allies may also send units across the southern crossing while you attack the towers.
  19. 19
    Beyond the towers are the town buildings (mills, houses, town center), a tower to the west, and more dangerous towers north behind walls.
  20. 20
    Use mortars to take out these towers while your main army engages elsewhere.
Tips
  • Hoard lumber.
  • Falconets are a priority target early on.
  • Towers at the southern crossing can help defend against frequent British attacks.
  • A fort, a few towers, and a trio of falconets provide strong defense.
  • Let your allies help defend.
  • Howitzers are highly effective in large battles.
  • Your allies might send units across the southern crossing while you attack the towers.
