This is not an optimized build, as you need an IO for that, but you can do fairly well with this build.

Get a blacksmith and get both armors first, then damage and go attack with castle units Get food and gold upgrades first then wood, wheelbarrow until castle IMOĬontinue continous villager enough resources mins get barracks and archery mins csatle clickup with 15f, 9w, 10g, 0s into Imperial Palace ~imperial academy mins for Song vill bonusĬontinue continous villager mins castle clickup with 15f, 7w, 8g, 5s into Imperial Palace, get your second TC ~clickup to feudal with Barbicade of the Sun on your gold + berries if possible with 3 wood villsġ wood > landmark for 20 w you need for mill I’d suggest not managing an IO at the early game, as it’s a 150f investment that can only pay off if you use the optimized chinese build, which is as micro intensive as getting the rus hunts bounty. O and i throw in a tax official once the food income is fast enough to support 150 food (3villagers) usually around the time i got gold mine wood bldg and mill While doing all that keep your scout bringing in the sheep-.Īnd then” villagers to wood heavy cause ur gonna need to build boom something fierce to get ready for their first wave… usually a scout will of given u an idea of what your facing… i would have half my walls up, and that first defensive structure if u placed it well in conjunction with tc you wont have amy problems with rushs… but keep an eye for ramsĪfter that is where i fall apart still… i need more practise late game and proper counter delivery techniques If u want to be first to feudal and castleįeudal (best for the defensive structure) eta 3min? Never timed itģ-5to wood just focus on wheelbarrow upgrade amd food- with 3-4 vill on goldīuild a market to correct any balances of stone or excess woodĪnd castle age boom within a couple more min…Īny down time spend on wood heavy or gold heavy buildings and upgrades but food is the biggest cost to it all
