Battle of Vienna - 1683

Description
Autumn 1683. City of Vienna.
The Ottoman Empire under Grand Vizier Merzifonlu Kara is encamped around Vienna in a siege that is approaching the end of it's second month.
The garrison of Vienna, comanded by General Starhemberg, is on it's last legs, suffering from hunger and fatigue as a relief force of 80,000 men from Poland and the Holy Roman Empire, under Jan III Sobieski, King of Poland, approaches to relieve the city from the Ottoman army of over 100,000 men.
What ensues is one of the great turning points in the decline of the Ottoman Empire.
This is my first proper scenario created so feedback would be great! I have also made this as historically accurate as I could while still keeping the gameplay entertaining. To download either hit the green subscribe button or follow the link at the bottom. Enjoy :)

I just want to point out someone actually asked for them to add another faction to the map, despite it being years old. Smart people.

1) To open the palisade gates of vienna, you need to bring King Jan Sobieski III near it.
2) Graf Starhemberg is a cavalier unit. Once the palisade gates are opened, the green vienna defenders tend to pour out of it and wander eastward. I found Starhemberg therefore in the dock district in the east.
3) You will probably lose most of your units during the assault on the ottoman castle due to the sheer number of turkish unit counters (royal janissaries, imperial camels etc behind walls). So make sure to keep your 2 monks (1 missionary you start with, and 1 monk you liberate in the northern part of the map) ALIVE so that they can convert turkish units in the eastern countryside to help build up your army. Particularly, there is a barracks in the south east with lots of turkish units that can be individually lured out via conversion, just beware of the many hand cannoneers that make short work of converted infantry.

Probably not as the scenario is 5 years old now.
