World Map Strategy (RM)
This Strategy is best used on a map with water (and fish). RLF_RAMSES wrote this based on "World Map". This has already helped members alot.
The following strategy is based on any World Map game.
Here is a basic strat to help ya boom quickly.
The key is to gather resourses quickly to enable
a qucik transisition through the ages. The more villagers
the richer + stronger your armies.
There are two methods
1, quick feudal then attack early as you step to castle.
2, slow feudal instant castle & attack as you
step to imperial.
I will cover stratagy 2, here & this depends
on the map as some vary the amount of resourses you
get at the start.
On landing at your chosen spot 2 villagers build 2
docks 2 villagers build 2 houses
when both docks are built dock builders build town
centre by wood.
Churn out the number of fishing boats remaining wood
allows normally 3 or 4
Instantly churn out villagers on wood every 75 wood
build a fishing boat.
Remember to constanly build houses. 1 villager can
be used for this & he can be used as a land scout.
( transport boat = sea scout ) number it so you can
easily find it without looking.
Build a mill & lumber camp (mill allows quicker
castle transition )
you need 500 food to feudal so before 500 stop queing
villies & hit feudal.
Instantly at feudal build a blacksmith & market
& hit castle.
At this point build galleys to go attack any enemy
fishing spots you have found.
& build a barracks to attack land forces.
The aim is to slow down enemy economy not all out
war as this can slow you to imperial.
On castle build 3 more town centres by gold / food
/ wood .
As this allows a real boom you can really expand in
castle & at the same time your enemy is fighting
off your early attacks & cannot progress.
Build 2 building to advance = university / church
then advance to imperial ( remember to research at
black smith the technologies of the units you are
using so that they are stronger against oponents.
Very simple stratagy but as those who have played
me at this it's very effective.
You are in Imperial while your oponent is not even
in castle.
