Normal Build order[]

This build order should work on most maps with some slight variation depending on sea or accesibility to hunting areas.

  • At start send all villagers to gather berry bushes and scout for a hunting area with constant villager production.
  • Whenever you find the hunt send your 4 villagers to build a storage and start hunting, research Hunting Dogs as soon as possible.
  • Have your 5th villager build a storage to start gathering wood, send the next 4 villagers (at this point you should have 5 on wood and 4 on food).
  • Send your 10th villager to hunt.
  • Start building the 3 houses that you will need with your 11th villager.
  • Send your 12th villager to gather wood.
  • Send your 13th villager to help with the houses, after they complete send 1 of them to gather wood or gold, the other villager should be able to start a barracks almost immediately
  • Start a 14th villager and Age II after that, that villlager can be sent to gather resources or to help construct the barracks in case of some sort of early spearman pressure.
  • Once you hit age II your barracks should be complete, you should have enough wood for an archery or a second barracks and you should be able to purchase Apprentice Wood Chopping. Your next focus should be getting an adequate gold income and transfer your hunting villagers to a new locations since the original one should be most likely running out of resources by now.
