Quest Giver Dialog[]

Trade Dock Foreman (Nubia)
In some areas of the Nile, the fishing is great. However, the best area has two problems. One, every enemy we have knows about it. Two, the area is so rocky that farming is useless, and you can't find other animals to hunt.


I need you to go there and get control over that part of the Nile. You should be able to bring back a large quantity of Food if you control the water.
Trade Dock Foreman (Nubia)
Get a move on, or that area will be fished out.
Trade Dock Foreman (Nubia)
Fish for dinner!

Strategy[]

This is one of the more difficult repeatable quests available. A number of key structures have been disabled on this quest.

Fisherman Finnbar is a must here. His fishing conservation, cheaper boats make the optional possible. You should build immediately one fishing boat and with your villagers, build a temple to advance to next age. Then, gather resources and start filling the water with Trirremes, because your enemy will soon unload troops on your shores. Destroy all docks nearby until there is none on the map. You can try to build some towers near the beach to help you fend off the enemy elite triremes, only your ships won't be enough (i recommend playing elite only if you have very good gear to tank it). It's doable but is an ache to build everytime a storehouse near any oasis to lumber wood.

Trivia[]

  • There are 5 bandit camps guarding treasure camps.
  • The layout of this map slight resembles Battle of Kadesh, a scenario from Hittite campaign on Age of Empires 1 trial version.
