Tips & Suggestions

You made cavalry without Bloodlines. This is essential - cavalry die too fast without the +20 HP.

You reached Castle Age without Wheelbarrow. Get it before clicking up or around 22-25 villagers.

You made 35 Skirmishers but your opponent only made 3 archers. Skirms are only cost-effective against archers - consider other units.

You reached Imperial Age without Hand Cart. This significantly slows your economy.
