Battle of Kaesong (936)

Description
[This scenario is an update of an earlier version. Dialogues have been updated and a proper custom campaign map has beed added. I also want to update the AIs, the difficulties and the voice acting but that will be for later.]

In the 10th century, Korea was once again divided into Three Kingdoms like it had been before. Taejo Wang Geon, ruler of Goguryeo, reunified Korea during The War of the Later Three Kingdoms and founded the Goryeo Dynasty which would rule over Korea for hundreds of years to come.
Kaesong is a build & destroy scenario set in medieval Korea. It can be played on standard, moderate, hard and hardest, with each difficulty being more challenging than the previous one. WARNING: This scenario is way more challenging than the official campaigns so don't try a high difficulty in your first attempt unless you're really good at the game.

Nice scenario, thanks for uploading to the workshop. Do you plan to port it over to AoE 2 DE (Definitive Edition)? I copied over the files and was able to play through without problems, however some adjustments are needed, ex. intro slide show, voice acting, outro...

It's part of a larger conflict.

I tried googling this battle and couldn't find it for some reason.

A difficult but good scenario, I enjoyed the challenge at the start as many scenarios lack that tense atmosphere. I made video on it here

 This scenario is quite difficult, but (therefore?) I really enjoyed playing it… until I save my game as I was near to win, and when I tried to load… the game crashed! :–/
 I do not know why: I tried to begin a new game, save it and load it: it did not crash. So this is not because of the scenario itself.

 However, as I said, I liked this scenario. :-)

I loved the beginning of it and the pressure starting off which is lacking in a lot of scenarios. It makes you have to be optimal with decision making which was great. I would say it is quite grinding play towards the later parts of the game. Great scenario overall tho. Good job and thank you for taking the time to make this.

Forgot to note this:
Don't transition to the imperial age early. I think it will trigger green and red to transition to the same age. Then, you are more likely get into the situation in which your bases are easily wiped out with floods of tribs and onager, accompanying incessant war wagons and knights from green side and arbalests and light cavalries from the red one. And I also found that you can just load some tribs and War wagons with a transportation ships and drop in the area where the wonder /is being built/has been built. Then You can destroy them in a comparatively easy manner in comparison with,you know, attacking overland.

I replayed this one again on hard mode recently and finished it again.
There are some challenging points:
-The first few waves until you fortify your bases with two tower, with each containing 5 archers
And Stone walls behind the wood ones.
- scanty stone : It is a extremely decisive one to me since you can't defense enemy with a building.
- And the time pressure, arising from a wonder. Once you destroy the wonder, then you can clear it anyways, even though it takes several more hours.

The way AIs countered our units building was a kind of annoying, but I'd say it was fun to me. This scenario is actually not as hard as pre-nerfed Dracula 5, Sforza 5 and Sundjata 5 or even Langsan Jang.

It does worth playing on hard-mode once.
