- 0:00 — 5 villagers fetch 50 stone, in a single drop-off, then go back to the trees; 1 villager on sheep; rally on food.
- 0:38 — A food villager builds the Military School.
- 0:49 — A House.
- 1:03 — At 50 wood: 3 wood villagers go to the sheep, 2 to gold with a Mining Camp; the rally point stays on food.

Archery Range and Akinji (4:40)
Line up the Archery Range, the Blacksmith and the Military School to produce Akinji non-stop from the first Vizier Point at 6:40.
- 4:40 — Age II: the Military School produces 1 Mehter. 2 wood villagers build the Archery Range as fast as possible, one of them the Blacksmith too; the 4 Medrese villagers keep going to the berries.
- 5:02 — Wheelbarrow, researched at the Twin Minaret Medrese.
- 5:40 — A House, to reach the first Vizier Point.
- 6:10 — 2 wood villagers go to stone and build a Mining Camp.
- 6:40 — First Vizier Point: Akinji System. Akinji non-stop at the Archery Range; Double Broadax and Steeled Arrow; 1 or 2 more Archery Ranges as soon as the wood allows.
- 8:20 — One more Military School as soon as possible, thanks to the stone.
Tips
- The Akinji System gives 1 Akinji and unlocks these units at the Military School and the Archery Range: several of these buildings multiply production.
- Send a Scout to look at the enemy base right from the opening (Beastyqt’s variant).
- Variant: Beastyqt, in his video, builds 2 Archery Ranges and the Blacksmith right in Age II, then more Ranges and Military Schools from 6:40.
- An Akinji costs 80 food and 80 wood: only 2 villagers on gold for the whole build, and the stone goes to the next Military Schools.
