11/13/2022 0 Comments Anno 1404 scenarios![]() ![]() Remember where these islands are, and where Grand Vizier Al Zahir and the Venetian are.Look for the biggest Oriental island with Spices, Dates and preferably Clay and a lot of green areas.This island should be very near your first. If possible look for a second island, in case you need of bread and beer later in the game.Make sure that either your first island or second island (Occidental or Oriental) has a river with at least 4 to 5 river sites in order to secure the possibility for later production chains of Books, Leather jerkins and Fur coats.Find the biggest Occidental island with Hemp and Cider, and preferably more than one source of Iron and Stone.It is a must to explore the map beforehand.This increases the danger of getting attacked by the beggars. Deny them access to earn a certain amount of gold coins (first time: 5000, then each time more). When the beggars arrive you are probably in dire need of gold.If playing the Venice expansion version, build Bases of Operation to cover your entire settlement because the arson and riot acts of sabotage instigated by enemy henchmen will cripple your economy.Use some of the other tips on this Wikia: Scenario: General and Hard AI guide.Use the production calculator to figure out how many houses you can build/upgrade with your current production.So don't bother harassing the AI early on. The AI is able to call in an auxiliary fleet from the get-go.If the AI does not know you, he is less likely to bother you. This also means finding as little uninhabited islands as possible, since the AI could settle there later. Try to avoid 'finding' the other AI players' settlements.If you settle more, you have a big chance of taking an island the AI wants, which will result in very early war and harassment. Only settle one Oriental and one Occidental island in the early stages of the game.In the early stages it is very important to build up the population and to get the required production chains up and running. So the player will need to steer clear of the AI until going to war is affordable, which is usually not before the Noblemen stage. This often results in an AI player attacking the player's ships and warehouses as soon as he hits Patrician (required for warships), and in Venice he will also aggressively settle the player's islands. Another approach is to quickly capture a lot of islands, in an attempt to deny the AI the best spots. There were a few tricks in the original 1404 that could be used to beat them (date-trick) but these tricks seem to have been fixed in Venice. In the Imperator Scenario there are 3 hard AI players who build very fast, and are very aggressive. ![]()
