Song Jin – Invaders from the North
For fifty years, China has been in disarray, with no kingdom or leader strong enough to earn the Mandate of Heaven and restore the glory of the shattered Tang dynasty. Are you up to the task of reuniting China and founding the Song dynasty? If so, a period of great advances in art, literature and higher learning await. However even a Golden Age such as this will pass eventually, for dark storm clouds continue to arise from the northern steppes. How long can these marauding riders be kept at bay?
The Song-Jin campaign is the last in the regular Emperor missions. It contains 7 missions, 4 from the Northern Song dynasty then 3 from the Southern Song dynasty. This is generally considered the most difficult campaign, and it has the most military content.
I played this campaign at normal, at higher difficulty levels it could play quite differently.
