OK super well basically what u need to do is keep your oracles near home, as soon as you see a priest hero your oracles and kil his priest giving you enough time to upgrade.
It is impossible to SS without LOS from an obelisk or a wadjet (which is also countered by hero oracles) as the priest is picked off by the TC too fast.
He knows he must get LOS all the way to the TC otherwise his mercenaries time out.
if your willing to risk it, make him think hes got line of sight enough to SS in so he spends alot on mercenaries and quickly rid him of his obelisk. It requires precise timing but will waste all his gold if you suceed.
Maybe not worth the risk.
Anyway if he does manage to SS in and start attacking TC, attack his pharoah first and repair TC with vils.
Use prometheans if in classical.
Plan b which is much worse for you long term is upgrade early. In this case expect him too TC boom and/or FH which probably leaves you 4:2 Tcs down and a weaker econ becasue of it and an age behind. Its merely prolonging the agony. Really it is not much of an option.
You must tempt him to continue the villager rush so he does not see the nbigger picture. He'll waste afew priests and brain cells trying to get the LOS that you never give him whnilst you take valuable TC's.
Stop his LOS!
in all cases get to the Tc's and go heroic for behemoths to stop him TC booming (trust me thats what they do when they cant villie rush but have lots of gold- I'm one of them). So take the TC's first and Boom to make behemoths and raiding troops.
Behemoths>
classical egyptians and the only thing that stops thnem is very expensive mercenaries and expensive priests. so cut off his gold with other troops and he's dead.
keep his migdols at bay and remember your TC's generate favour for Behemoths. me (ra) got owned by this earlier.

DragonQ
only really attempt a villie rush on high hunt maps and not fishing maps. TC boom on low hunt maps/fishing or if vs isis, match her with a FH camel spam.
Anyway my BO for villie rush is:
4 food
3 gold
3 food
1 house>monument>houses
Gold miners>temple>food (or even wood if i think the mining upgrade tastes good and i got enough food)
The rest on food till you can upgrade which is about 21 pop.[This message has been edited by Bloodshedder (edited 07-28-2007 @ 05:11 AM).]
