Here are what I feel are some important tips: when I spend my civilization points, especially when playing a random map, I always boost my wood and stone gathering, and max out everything that has to do with walls, towers, and buildings. Then, I start building walls and towers as quickly as I can, and try to gain enough resources to get to the next epoch as quickly as possible. I usually ignore any military, besides building a barracks and whatnot, and let the walls and towers take the brunt of the attacks. Setting up a kill zone of towers is always a goal I have, because walls, while good, are passive, so they eventually get beaten down. Towers do too, but at least they take some of the attackers with them. After I get firmly established, which I can tell by how successfully my fortifications hold off attacks, then I start building a military. I find it's worthwhile to max out your units, because quality, to me, is better than quantity. Another good thing to do it to try to get a hero as soon as possible, and let him do much of the fighting at first.</p></blockquote><p></p>
