![]() ![]() IIRC correctly, you need Code of Laws> Monarchy >Chivalry, so you might as well get Code and enter Republic for your settler spam. It will not be possible to build Knights fast enough with just one or two cities, so you will need to spam settlers first. Otherwise just research Chivalry as fast as possible. This approach might work as a follow up to the Horse Rush strategy above, but only if you are really quick with it or if you pick up the Knights Templar artifact (IIRC that is the one which upgrades your horses to knights). Try to get to Chivalry as fast as possible and get your knights out to attack. you fail to take enemy cities) will usually mean defeat for you unless the game is single player on a low difficulty setting.Ģ. On the other hand, a failed horse rush (i.e. If you know when to stop and switch to settler spam, it can be followed up by very rapid expansion which can form the basis for any type of victory. also, the horse rush has the advantage of putting you on the offensive and other on the defensive early in the game. This approach will rarely get you more than one capital, but one enemy cap in the early BC era is a massive advantage. However, you will need a spy from a village because you will not have time to research HBR, Alphabet and Writing while pumping out horses, so that is a limited option. You might be able to root them out by using a spy to break their defenses. Once they get an archer army dug in in their capitol your horsies cannot win, even with infiltration. ![]() Most civs will research Bronze Working (BW) early and start building archers. This will only work if you move really, really fast. You can research Horseback Riding (HBR) right away, hit a couple of barbarians, get upgraded, look for an enemy capitol, form an army and attack right away. So you get basically three windows to attack.ġ. The key to domination is to aim to get one of the offensive techs soon enough that the units can reach the enemy and attack before the opposing civ invents the relevant defensive tech. Knight armies can beat archer armies (absent walls or really powerful upgrades like engineering) but cannot beat Pikeman armies. Horse/legion armies can conquer a city defendant by warriors or single archers, but not archer armies. The only way to take a heavily defended city is to have superior units. If you want an easier domination victory, select the Aztecs or Arabs, tech horseback riding and horserush the other civs.Īx, even if you are going for Domination, remember that you have to get ahead in Tech. That's not going to come easy, but once you learn how to do it, the games will become so much easier and you'll never lose to Deity. ![]() More cities= more power.Įventually, the goal we like to set out for players is to learn how to have 10 cities by 0AD, or 40 turns. Learn how to do this well, and you'll play this game to its highest level. Once you get to Code of Laws, you should try to create a lot more settlers. You should first target getting your 100 gold, and then start build settlers after that. You should look to build more settlers too. You should be selecting what tiles you want to work on in every city. You need to learn how to custom manange your workers in a your cities. When you get Iron Working, those elite warriors will change into elite legions, when you get Feudalism, those elite legions will change into elite knights, and when you get Combustion, those elite knights will change into elite tanks.įor Warlord difficulty, you get +50% attack as well, so this will make things easier, you could finish the game off with legions if you wanted, or horsemen.īut, you should probably focus on playing the game a little better. So, make a bunch of warriors in a city with barracks, and then start teching up. German warriors start out vetern, so a barracks will make them elite units. How you do this is to build a barracks in a city and start producing warriors. There's many ways to do it, with their most powerful way being upgrading their elite units into advanced units. The Germans are pretty good for a domination victory. I recommend looking at the strategy articles on this forum, there are plenty of good ones that should show you how to set up your civ for any type of victory.
