1 & 2 ville go build granary with pharoah empowerment and hunting dogs immediately.
3 ville go for gold with Priest empowerment
- after the first drop the gold miner makes I take the priest to scout near the place where hunting is going on with oblisk so that i can find the next hunting ground next he goes scouting( I scout half the map with the priest and get him back to empower gold when it has 4 ville on it.)
next ville goes to granary until I have 8 on food
then one to build 1 house temple and build the rest of the house.
next 3 ville on gold.
one on wood.
then the rest on food.
During transition I use the 8 on hunting on a gold near to a settlement with pharoah empowerment and priest and six other ville to hunting if any or countinue with herdables.
I also get 3 priest out of the temple to empower resources(Gold,town center,wood) and during transition i get hands pharoah to pic relics that i have found.
But as far as I have seen people always go about scouting with pharoah and use the first priest to empower food and later bring the paroah to empower gold later on. Why is it so, does this not reduce the pace at which u reach classical, what am I missing?
PS : Other races bring out their heros by early classical or during end of transition so still the priest can pic up early enough.
