''The Hundred Years War'' campaign consists of 8 missions, you can play at any difficulty to unlock the achievement. The hardest missions for me was ''The Siege Of Paris'' and ''The Siege Of Orléans'' because the enemy harassement is endless and includes a lot of siege units, powerful knights and archers. I included videos for every mission of this campaign on hard difficulty to give you an idea how to beat them quickly and effectively. For your information, the best units with the french civilization are the ''Crossbowmen'' and the ''Royal Knights'' mixed with ''Mangonels'' or ''Cannons'' (for the last 2 mission). Using these units mixed with some good micros is key to win.
