'''The easy way'''
Have your 4 monks immediately get on the transport ship and bring your horse knight with you. Then sail southeast down the river, research fervor, Redemption and Sanctity. Ignore the enemy galleys and quickly get to the end of the river and get 4 monks off the transport ship.
Now all you have to do is wait for the enemy villager to exit through the castle gate which will open, or create a distraction by having your knight attack the castle wall which will cause the swordsman to exit through the castle gate, quickly use this opportunity to sneak 4 monks inside the fort and quickly head over to the cathedral and quickly convert the cathedral with 4 monks before the catapult can attack you and you should win the campaign.
'''The challenging way'''


Start by scouting aggressively on land with all scouting assets. Monks are actually decent scouts, except that they are slow and vulnerable. Guard the monks with your ground troops. The ships are at present your weakest link, and they should hide.
