2 TCs · Fort — Tughlaq Dynasty AoE4
Dome of the Faith, then stone (0:00–4:32)
Age up at 2:05 with 2 villagers on the Dome of the Faith, then load up on stone for the Fort and the Town Center: Age II at 4:32 with 19 villagers, 9 of them on stone.
- 0:00 — 4 villagers on berries with the Worker Elephant, 2 on sheep. A second Worker Elephant collects the sheep around the base, then goes to gold.
- 0:20 — The next 2 villagers go to gold; the first builds a House on the gold, then goes back to mining.
- 1:00 — Rally on sheep until the age-up.
- 2:05 — Age up with the Dome of the Faith: 2 sheep villagers build it.
- 2:10 — The 2 gold villagers and the Worker Elephant go to stone; 4 sheep villagers chop the 3 straggler trees (make sure all 3 are there).
- — Rally on stone until you can build the Tughlaqabad Fort and the Town Center.
Fort between the two Town Centers (4:32)
Put the Fort up at 4:32, then the second Town Center at 5:15 as you leave the stone vein; afterwards scout the opponent to choose between units and Castle.
- 4:32 — Age II: the 2 Dome builders build the Tughlaqabad Fort between the second Town Center spot and the main Town Center, 8 tiles from each.
- 5:15 — When 470 stone remain out of 1,200 in the vein, every stone villager walks to the gold and builds the second Town Center there.
- — Then scout the opponent and produce units, or go to Castle if he is booming too.
Tips
- Place the Fort between the second Town Center spot and the main Town Center, 8 tiles from each: the author shows the placement in his video.
- The Tughlaqabad Fort (400 stone) is a heavily garrisoned position that accepts a Governor: it protects the second Town Center placed beside it.
- Leave the stone vein as soon as 470 stone remain out of 1,200: every miner goes to place the Town Center, without waiting for the vein to run dry.
- After the second Town Center: scout the opponent and produce units, or go to Castle if he is booming too.
- Variant: one copy of the build sends 5 sheep villagers to the straggler trees instead of 4.
