Everyone considers this common knowledge but I almoest never see this you people just deskribe numbers in how many "K" (thousand) usually.

What to come out of beginner protection with

6k archers

2k warriors

100 swordsmen

100 pikemen

2k scouts

What to use as your main army

100k - 150k Warriors

75k – 95k Archers

20k – 50k Scouts

20k+ Ballista

10k – 15k Cavalry

5k Worker, Pikemen, Swordsman

10k Transporter

1^st develop construction- it will decrease your construction time allowing you to build more rapidly and I the quickest way to allow you to improve your economy.

2^nd archery and informatics- archery will boost the effectiveness of your most important troops in the game, archers and ballista.  And the Informatics will allow you to scout for information and to receive information about those who attack you or scout you.

3^rd metal casting, military tradition, military science, iron working, medicine- these boost the effectiveness of your troops and their endurance.

4^th lumbering and mining- you should only build sawmills and iron mines as iron and wood sell for 4-5g a piece and u can get food for .7-.9g a piece and stone for .2-.7 a piece so it is more economical to do a 50/50 split with wood and iron.

5^th logistics, compass, horseback riding- these will make your troops faster and capable of carrying more.

6^th engineering and machinery- these boost your defensive capabilities.

7^th well the last things are stockpiling, privateering, masonry, and agriculture and they are all equally sucky.

1x Forge Lvl 9 (can be demolished once all technologies requireing it are done)
1x Stable Lvl 9
1x Workshop Lvl 9 (can be demolished once all technologies requireing it are done)
1x Academy Lvl 9 *
1x Beacon Tower Lvl 10
1x Relief Station Lvl 9
1x Inn Lvl 2
1x Market Lvl 4
1x Feasting Hall Lvl 9
1x Rally Spot Lvl 9
1x Embassy lvl 5
1x Warehouse Built for quest only, then demolished
15x Cottages Lvl 9
6x Barracks Lvl 9 (1 Lvl 10)
1x Town hall Lvl10

All should be built to Lvl nine but this should give you an estimate of how to advance.

50% sawmills Lvl9

50% iron mines Lvl9

Its much easier to start off right from the begining rather than have to go back and fix it.

1^st Town Hall

2^nd Wall

3^rd Rally spot

4^th feasting hall

5^th barracks

6^th beacon tower

All the rest-town hall, wall, or rally spot depending on how you game

Attack- Troop effectiveness and build rate.

Politics- Production of resources and building/upgrading time

Intelligence- amount of info acquired from scouting and attacking + technology research speed.

Tax rate affects your loyalty inversely.  When you have a 0% tax rate your loyalty rate will rise to 100% and If you have a 100% tax rate your loyalty rate will drop to 0%.  Most people keep a 50% tax rate but I use a 25% tax rate to prevent my city from being taken easily.

This is easy, make 50 of everything and leave the rest as Archers Towers.
