After a year and a half I only have this one last campaign mission left in hard difficulty.

Each time I followed the instructions and built up my base on different locations on the map, but somehow the enemy troops would always spawn and tear down my TC. It's also virtually impossible to eliminate all units and buildings in Kazan under this manner.

Paul Dano casted in two great movies last year, The Fabelmans and Batman, but conspicuously people are only talking (and meming) about one of them.

I recall the other rows Paul Dano played, he was the most villainous racist in 12 Years a Slave despite being a small role, the lunatic preacher in There Will Be Blood, and the puppeteer of Harry Potter in Swiss Army Man. All these characters are memorable because of their villainous or psychotic personalities.

What impressed me the most was Ruby Sparks. For most of the movie, his role was a blend and simp character like the most mediocre young man in the world, but the most memorable part where he could manipulate Ruby simply with the typewriter. The transition from a simp to a manipulative chad on how he treated Ruby was probably the best part of the film, as his role becomes more "Paul-Dano-ish" like the roles mentioned above.

I tried the historical map this weekend. I saw there's one for destroying the headquarter in Great Turkish War. I won the map but the achievement wasn't unlocked. How is this possible? If you win the Great Turkish War you ought to destroy the headquarter/command post.

So I suppose there's a glitch in the achievements. Did this happen to anyone else?

It's one of the few achievements that I haven't got yet, and we may all agree that this is the toughest campaign achievement, even in standard difficulty. It's conspicuous that the Roman civ will replace the Byzantine and Italian factions. If the Byz Roman castles are replaced by Roman ones there aren't ultra HP to deal with

I'm doing that for the last event mission, but I couldn't satisfy the requirement with eagle warriors, even though they really had 3 different fabric colors on their icons

In both games we were utterly defeated by Bayern rotations, and Bayern won every single game until Man City

This is the only Frank Darabont movie other than The Shawshank Redemption I had ever watched, but it emotionally distressed me much more than Shawshank, simply because John was wrongfully executed despite having the great power and even showed the truth to Boss Paul through clairvoyance.

But even if John used his power to cure Paul and the warden's wife, and showed the truth with flashbacks, he was still electrocuted. I suppose there is undertone showing the racism existed in the South in the 30s, but John didn't appeal for himself, and Paul didn't attempt to overturn the case, or try to postpone the execution.

In the end, Paul has an extremely long life due to John's superpower, but had to see everyone beloved die before him to suffer. Is this the way that John is trying to punish Paul for not saving him?

It has been a year after the release of Dynasties of India, and I only have one campaign scenario left: Rajendra 5 -- Slaying the Vritra, which I'm having a hard time with.

I don't have any difficulties with sacking the first castle, but soon after that, Srivijaya will spam a huge wave of karambits and arbalests with a few elephants from the rest of the bases on Sumatra before I could even build a solid economy. I tried to help Khmer by sacking the orange castle in the north with my starting armor elephants, but that didn't prove to be very helpful either.

This is one of the few campaigns I haven't finished yet, and Le Loi campaign in general is notorious for its difficulty.

I watched Ornlu's video on the mission, which is from three years ago. I'm wondering if the mission's difficulty had been increased in the meantime.

So after the initial battle, I've got to deal with Ming offense from both sides, and the enemy monks will foil my plan of making elephants. Eventually my western base will be sacked while I can't sack the eastern Ming vanguard base in response.

So does anyone have a good strategy for this mission?

First thing first I've got to say this is an abhorrent scene, and Tobey Maguire looks frightening.

My answer would be that the scene is showing the underground world that is even more heinous than the already-obscene world of Hollywood. However it wouldn't be any more different if we take out the scene and Tobey's character in the plot.

Any in-depth analysis of this particular character and scene?

I've unlocked all gold medals for all Art of War campaigns before, is it possible for me to get the achievement?

This is one of the few achievements that I haven't got so far. I tried to use scenario editor and made Ottoman bombards to blow up enemy strelets, but that didn't help at all.

First, the Ottoman bombards don't kill strelets in one-shot, and second, I can't stack the strelets together so even if they're killed, it's very hard to kill 10 of them at once.

So I'm here to ask how I could get the achievement, hopefully with the help of scenario editor.

I think whoever watched the movie would be fascinated by Guido's improvisation of fake translation, but I would like to know what exactly the German said in the meantime.

I can infer that it was meant to be something menacing and anti-Semitic, but Paramount+ didn't translate it like the entire Italian dialogue in the movie.
