[h3]New! Limited-time Scenario: The Siege[/h3]
Introducing The Siege, a new multiplayer limited-time scenario! Play 2v2, co-op vs AI, or solo vs AI as the Turks or Byzantines at the epic 1453 Siege of Constantinople.
Turks must build up their army to take the Monument before time runs out. Byzantines have defenses but limited resources to hold on as long as they can. Both sides do battle over the massive and historically-inspired city of Constantinople.
Play against other players, team up against the AI, or play solo as either side of the battle.
And if you love The Siege, the new Victors and Vanquished expansion includes two solo scenarios that expand on the battle with voice acting, more objectives, scripted events, and more!

[h2]Hotfix 60305[/h2]
[h3]Gameplay[/h3]
- Fixed an issue where using the "Drop Off" command under certain circumstances could cause villagers to "hunt" trees down and gather food from them.
- Hunters will no longer turn into Lumberjacks after dropping off food manually by right-clicking the Town Center.
- After depleting a Boar, Hunters will no longer automatically hunt another live Boar if the "Drop Off" resources command was used.
- After depleting a Sheep, Shepherds will automatically go to another Sheep even if "Drop Off" command was used.
- After using the "Drop Off" or "Back to Work" commands, villagers will go back to the same target they were previously working on, instead of picking a new one. If villagers were previously standing idle, they will go back to that location consistently.
[h3]Achievements[/h3]
- Return of Rome achievements should be triggering once again.
