Tips
- Pick the buildings by opponent: against a Knight civilization, a Stable and an Archery Range, or a Stable and a Barracks.
- Vizier Points are earned by producing units: five military buildings running non-stop move the Imperial Council forward fast.
- Wood stays at 12 villagers from 5:50 to 8:00 to pay for buildings and production, then rises to 15; only 2 villagers are on gold until 8:30.
- The Mill on the deer at 8:00 takes food from 12 to 14 villagers: the game animals pay for production.
