Tips & Suggestions

You didn't research Double-Bit Axe. This is one of the most important early eco upgrades - get it in early Feudal Age.

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

You didn't research Horse Collar. Your farms produce less food without it.

You didn't research Bow Saw in Castle Age. Wood income is critical for military production.

You made melee units without Forging (+1 attack). Blacksmith upgrades matter.

Tips & Suggestions

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

You reached Imperial but never used your unique unit (Longbowman). Longbowmen have insane range. Keep them behind walls or trebs.
