hey everyone. who has completed the Montecito campaign mission? I seem to be stuck on it. I defended each village for the time i was told and at the end when the clock counted down, nothing happened.... then game just went on forever. i even controlled every piece of land on the map with the red prince not even present anymore. Anyone know whats going on?

It seems to happen if you beat Crimson Sabbat before the game trigger fires up. The one when your main city is attacked. Your city needs to be attacked before you defeat him. But you can fend of your villages and take over the walled outposts. Also i think you need to save all 3 villages to complete the level. But havent tasted of loosing one or two.

all 3 villages where saved. my main city was never attacked tho

best thing i did for this mission take both outposts south left and right and then north but never take over the north west one which is actually the reds encampment. You only attack this when the timer has run out cos then u need to destroy the storehouse. Just build a wall which will prevent him sending troops and once timer is gone head over there and take him out.

alright man thanks for the advice. ill try to re-do the mission and this time not destroy his base while the clock is still going. hopefully this time the game does not keep going like last time. that mission went on for hours and like a fool i sat there....so ill just wait for the timer to run out, then attack?
