First Serbian Uprising

First Serbian Uprising is a map based on a historical event. It is a single player map where you get role of Uprising Serbia.
History:
After yanissaries returned to Belgrade they started getting revenge on Serbs and even some Turks in Belgrade. In 1801 they killed Belgrade pasha Hadži-Mustafa and continued killing innocent Serbs. Serbian knezes (local dukes) started making plans of making an uprise.
When Turkish dahias (yanissaries) found out about those plans they ordered all Serbian knezes to be slaughtered in order to prevent uprise. Some of rare knezes that survived "Slaughter of knezes" were even more motivated to start an uprise know.
Very fast they organized assembly at Orasac and declared The Uprise. Djordje Petrovic was chosen for Vozd, something like leader with apsolute power. Very soon after Serbian Uprising army won a few battles Turks started calling Djordje, Karadjordje. That means Black Djordje.
During the Uprise Serbs liberated most of towns and villages in central Serbia including Belgrade in 1809. Uprise was supressed in 1813, mostly because of interior problems and quarrels.

Gameplay:
Army
Goal of the map is to liberate all Serbian cities under Ottoman Empire. To succeed in that you need a strong army, and Serbian peasants are ready to join army and liberate their country after 500 years of Turkish occupation.
You start in village of Orasac and you also control village of Topola which provides you some income. Before you can attack any other village and increase income you need to get army.
Many Serbian peasants are working outside of villages. Woodcutters are most often found. You can encourage them to join The Uprise by arming them. If peasant doesn't know how to use rifle then he will be sent to serve as cavalry.
Every Uprise needs to be well organized to succeed, so you have to get ammunition for your riflemen. If not, he is very likely going to be killed, with empty gun. Ammunition is very expensive in Serbia, for the same money you can get much better ammunition somewhere else.
Cannons are only siege weapons you can get. They are very expensive but Karadjordje together with his army can capture turkish cannons. As ammunition, they are overpriced in Serbia and can be found cheaper somewhere else.

Places
There are three kinds of places:
-Villages
-Monasteries
-Towns and Cities
Villages are small places that provide minor gold income. They are defended only with a few soldiers and can be captured relatively easy. After liberating villages, peasants of that village will join you.
Monasteries are rare on the map and they provide moderate gold income. Monastery complex consist of one or two buildings but they are well defended with a few cannons and soldiers.
Towns and cities are heavy defended with bomb towers, many soldiers and cannons. They provide major gold income and they also consist useful buildings inside them.
