THOR or sometimes I play eggie...
for Thor :
age old BO .. 'cast drawven mine' . first 2 dwarves to mine
5-6 villies and OX cart to food. If high hunt get pig sticker.
meanwhile Ulf is scouting.
next 2 villes+ox to wood
1 Dwarf to gold.
2 viles to food.
2 villes to wood.
1 more ox + dwarves to new mine
meanwhile around 3:20 Ulf makes the temple.
and one more house.
depending on the situation. villies to food(prefer.) or wood. and dwarves to gold.
when I have around 25 pop I advance.
produce hersir ( 1 or 2 or 3) from temple and if I wanna do FH. while advancing I build armory.
then either go straight to Heroic or do classical fighting, depending on the situation. Still I love HF units so I'd prefer to go to heroic and make Jarls...
for Eggies
1 ville and pharoh to monument and 2nd to food.
Priest to scouting .
next 5-6 villes to food while pharoh empowering the granary.
next 3 to gold. and priest exploring with obelisks.
12th villie to house and then temple.
next couple of villes to food and gold.
a few(2-3) to wood.
next 3 to food.
next 3 to gold.
when I have around 30 pop. advance.
never stay in classical for long. straight to heroic. and build migdol.
Anyways just have a mind set for what you want. and then have your own BO. I don't follow it to the point. I can't play it mechanically that's why I loss . but stil i enjoy it, so .....
