[edit] Scourge of God
Attila's brother, Bleda the Hun, betrays Attila while out on a Boar hunt, Attila must kill Bleda, allow the boar to do the same, or at least escape the Hun base and start up his own civilization form scratch. To win, you defeat any two of the opponents of the map: Scythians (green), Persians (red) and Western Roman Empire (blue). The Scythians will form an alliance with you if you free their prince from the Roman camp and then deliver them ten horses.
[edit] The Great Ride
Attila's army must collect loot from the six towns and villages around the map by defeating them. These are: Sofia (red, grants Food), Dyrrhachium (cyan, grants soldiers), Thessaloniki (purple, grants villagers), Naissus (green, grants Wood), Scythians (orange, grants petards and trained wolves) and Adrianople (grey, grants Gold and Stone). After that, you defeat the Eastern Roman Empire's (blue) fort in the east. Unlike the other villages, which require conquest, the Scythians will lend you their support in exchange for six villagers.
[edit] Walls of Constantinople
