I'm pretty new to games - can get through the other campaigns but I cant get started on this one. I've checked AoEH walkthroughs and Gamespot's too but they dont help as I continue to get wiped out at the end -all the towers have such an effect as well as the armies. I cant destroy the farms, kill the enemy and stop them rebuilding the farms. Can anyone help as I'm sure if I could get past this one I could enjoy the rest of the campaign. And this is at the easiest setting! I've tried saving at times when I'm fully prepared but to no avail. I think I've tried about 50 times. I badly need help!

Actually I tried the walkthrough myself; at moderate I barely made it in over 40 minutes, at hard it's impossible for me or I should let it drag on forever.

Lol, that's one way to make it here.

Centy:
The second part of my earlier post was directed at pretty much everybody in this thread except you and me.

I've recently started playing this game again and although I finished it many years back, I'm seriously frustrated at this particular scenario.
It seems whatever I do, the Dorians always cheat and generate more clubmen, then archers before I can upgrade my town centre.
I keep starting again, move my guys to the east, etc, and then I'm always playing catch up.
I've tried the walkthrough too.
I'll get there, but I don't remember having as many problems before

I remember reading many years back not to upgrade the town centre until I had sufficient food to generate more clubmen, ie don't advance until you're absolutely ready.
I have now managed to get a foothold in this scenario at last by moving my town centre slightly to the north east of the area where the yellow guys were.
The key to this scenario is the archers I think because once I had enough food to upgrade and build an archery range, they took out the Dorian clubmen from a distance and I've now managed to build up a decent army of clubmen and archers to move on the Dorian farms.
