I just started playing with Thor. I like him allot! I can advance to the Classical age in around 3:30 but I dont know what to do next. I need help on what to build and what to research next, and what would a good time to advance to the Heroic age? A build order would really help after reaching the Classical age, cuz i just dont know what to do after Archaic.

Don't advance that early - your Economy will suck. Try 5:00.

i think if do the dwarven gold mine in the first minute, u should advance around 4:30 with 17 villies(8gatheres,7dwarvs&3oxcarts).
the is good for good timing and economy.

it really depends who you fight, vs norse try and get there before 5mins.
vs greek before 5:30
and eggy 6:00.
this build isnt great, but ill tell you it as it is easy to do.
1) get gold upgrade + make house
2) but 2 dwarfs on gold ( and ox cart)
3) make 3 dwarfs to go to gold
4) put a dwarf on wood near by.
5)same^ unless you have enough wood to make an oxcart then do that, make more dwarfs until you have 5 on wood.
6) make 1 dwarf, one ox cart, then keep on making dwarfs onto food.
7) get hunting dogs and pig sticker when can be afforded.
8) make a temple.
9) around the 4:30 - 5:00 mark begin to advance.
10) get the wood upgrade.
11) make hersirs at temple
12) when advanced make more dwarfs on gold, and make longhouses, and an armoury + houses, and then make raiding cav constantly, and get the horse upgrade and the shields upgrade.
13) raid, and when out of food my TA, save food and advance when possible ( ALSO WHEN YOU GOT ABOUT 14 - 15 DWARFS ON GOLD START CHANGING TO FOOD AND WOOD, ALSO BLEND IN VILLAGERS) good luck and have fun on aom

one more thing.. if you do an all dwarf build remember to eventurly switch to all gatherers on wood and mainly gatherers on food
