Now you will be officially helping Poland as an ally. It is an uncomplicated mission in which you will be moving from one destination to another. The game will be always telling you what to do. Don't waste your units in a stupid way and follow the advice. You will be frequently changing leadership of the squads, so don't perform a suicide attacks. First follow the shooters squad to the east from the first fort.
Wait for the marksmen to get on their positions. Now follow the instruction and send a small squad under the castle walls. Once the enemy starts chasing you, move away from the shooters. The enemy will get close and he will be decimated. Take advantage of the situation and send the Cossacks through the open gate. They will enter the fort and take it over.
The Swedish will now send armies to reclaim the fort and stop your armies. Your ally will position himself before the fort, on the hill. Set your registered Cossacks before the ally to defend. Retreat before the fort with your second squad of fast Cossacks. Position them in the small valley above the fort. This will allow you to pass by the main forces and attack the enemy musketeers from behind. Then eliminate another squad and join the battle. This will reduce your losses to minimum. Now you will take command over the marksmen and you will let the ally control the cavalry.
You will join the siege of the city on the right edge of the map. Position yourself according to the advice and look as the situation turns against you. Your ally had fallen and you will learn about a trap set by the Swedish. First thing you should do is to take the marksmen into the old fort. The enemy will waste much time on getting there and their firepower will quickly dispose of the threat. In the meantime you can retreat your cavalry towards the ford or the infantry in order to minimize the losses. These units will soon become very useful.
Now you will help the Polish people in conquering the city. Position your cavalry in front of the Polish troops and order then to assault the palisades. Then clear the first part of the settlement of enemies. Attack the part on the hill. It is easier to attack the gate - a larger gap will be created by doing so. Once the crew is taken down, retreat to your allies. They will want to shoot at the castle on the hill, but the defenders won't give up.
Now it's time for the last part of this mission. Together with the Polish troops you must track down and eliminate the last enemy army in the area. The opponent fortified his positions behind the hill, where the passage is narrow. The Polish people will wait until you try attacking the enemy from behind. If you wait too long, the Hussars will move on the enemy by themselves. You will lose if the Polish cavalry fails. Position your infantry next to the cavalry. Move your cavalry around the lake and reorganize your troops for the attack. Then hit the Swedish. You can also send your infantry from the other side - they should join when you will move the enemy from the hill or when the Polish people will start attacking.
