"It is very important that you do not waste you army while you are
creating your economy send them away(1 or 2) in order to explore the map and
find your enemies and future sources for you civilization.
and very important do not create wall until you had seen the map around your
future home" - Ismael de Blois
"If you have a hard time beating the computer at hard level, feudal
rushing is the key. First build a house and a mill near berries. Put first
6 villagers on sheep, next 9 on berries, and another 5 on wood on nearby trees.
The trick is to continuously produce vils at town center. Send your scout out
for the boars and the enemy. (Shift right click to make waypoints) As soon as
you find boars deliver them to your berrymen , and when you have 100 wood build
a lumbercamp. Hopefully you'll have 500 food, 20 vils at the same time. Press
feudal, put all your villagers on wood, except 2-3 on berries, and send 2 vils
out to your enemy's town outskirts. Build a barracks, and archery range as soon
as you feudal. Back home put some vils on gold and stone, taking some from wood.
You should be able to feudal around 10:30-11:00 mins. Pump a few spearmen, and
at least 5 archers and attack his wood. Have your two forward vils build a tower
near his wood. Keep your economy well back in town, and don't worry if he
castles. Keep building towers protecting each other, and keep your archers
between them, attacking his wood. (Put the archers on stand ground stance) Build
a smith and research fletching, so that your archers and towers can attack
further. His economy will soon devastate, and you'll castle and imperial at your
leisure and collapse his civilization easily. Have fun!" - tolga
"I advise that you build helms deep, where you have many layers of walls and
if they bring down one layer, you retreat back. Make sure you have at least four
watch towers that shoot arrows. If they are attacking you with catipults, get an
army of horsemen and take them out." - Theoden
"think of wut your doing thats the best tip i can give and build early
defense like walls which is very useful in a typical deathmatch game like
BF(black forest)cause most players have the urge to rush" - Dark-Trooper
"Split you villagers 2/3 gathering food and 1/3 gathering wood until Feudal
age" - Stratos
