Complete walkthrough for Part 19 of Age of Empires III, including objectives, strategies, and tips for defending Fort Oloma and securing victory.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Build a trading post at the site to the south.
  2. 2
    Send your Heroes due south of your town center to the bottom of the map to find the Boots of El Pollo Guapo (boosts Hero speed by 25%).
  3. 3
    North and then west of your town is a free outpost wagon, guarded by enemies.
  4. 4
    When building your base, keep all buildings to the north, north-west, behind the ones you start with. Enemies attack from the south-east.
  5. 5
    Build three or four outpost towers south-west of your base for defense.
  6. 6
    Ensure peasants are being produced from houses, not the town center, for cost efficiency.
  7. 7
    Advance quickly and chop lumber in the south, near where you found the Boots.
  8. 8
    Position four or five falconets (upgrade to field guns later) behind your towers. Support them with musketeers, railwaymen, and priests.
  9. 9
    When heading into the Industrial Age, choose the Factory Wagon to build your first factory. A fort is also good for defense.
  10. 10
    Upgrade trading wagons to trains at the trading posts. Keep your falconets and other units healthy.
  11. 11
    Advancing past the Industrial Age is unnecessary and gives Americans time to build Congreve rockets.
  12. 12
    You can ally with Natives. One site is west of your base, another north-west of the southernmost trading post.
  13. 13
    Once your base is established and resources are flowing, build two or three mortars or rockets and send them south to the first American trading post.
  14. 14
    Send dragoons along with your mortars to deal with any guards, then destroy the tower and buildings.
  15. 15
    Build your own trading post in the ruins.
  16. 16
    West of this location is the fourth site, which should be lightly guarded or unguarded.
  17. 17
    Build a fourth blue trading post to win the level.
  18. 18
    To gain experience points, wipe out the red base from the south; it is standard and lacks towers.
