Briefing (summary)
As Pharaoh Ramses II at the fortress town of Qadesh: Hittites under Mutwatalli threaten the land of Amurra. Preplaced charioteer camps. Sumur veterans rejoin when you build infantry/chariot forts (briefing «delay» is narrative — place forts promptly or lose the carry). After victory, revive gems and jewelry trade.
