Map
The most important points of interest during the Rebuilding Moscow mission are marked on the map below.
- (1) Resource chests,
- (2) Hunting Cabins.
Rebuilding Moscow
Once the mission begins immediately start extinguishing burning buildings and fortifications. In the meantime your army must drive the invaders away from the settlement.
Then rebuild the destroyed wooden walls and send your Villagers to cut down trees in the nearby forest marked on the minimap.
The woods nearby are full of wolves. Send some warriors to protect your workers and Villagers from the wild animals.
The Rus Civilization has a special Bounty system which rewards you with gold and points for every wild animal you kill. Accumulating enough points rewards you with bonuses. You'll learn more about this faction, the Bounty system and said bonuses on a separate page of the guide: Rus - civilization.
After reaching the forest set up a Lumber Camp and start collecting wood. Employ the remaining workers on the farms.
Send a Scout to explore the area around the settlement, you may find some resource chests and some Villagers who escaped Moscow during the enemy invasion. Find all remaining four Hunting Cabins and hire the workers to collect resources.
New mission objectives will appear after you collect 700 wood. Build a Landmark in the designated area. Then build the Market and the Archery Range.
Defending Moscow
Place three defensive buildings in the designated areas and immediately start producing military units. There's a timer in the upper-left corner which shows you how long you have until the enemy attacks.
Send a few warriors to defend the nearby farms, as some enemy units may already be spawning there.
The attack will start when time runs out. The waves of enemies consist of small squads of cavalry and spearmen. Position your army at the gates and send some Archers to the Wooden Fortresses.
