It leverages a strong economy built on fishing ships to transition into Castle Age, allowing for rapid development and the ability to overpower opponents later in the game.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>When to Use:<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This strategy is most effective on maps with water where you have a safe fish resource and your land is either secure or distant from your opponent. It\u2019s particularly useful when your water access is not in direct competition with your enemy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Ideal Civilizations:<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Italians, Portuguese, Dravidians, Japanese, Persians<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Key Considerations:<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ensure houses are built promptly, especially during the Dark Age when producing both fishing ships and villagers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid Town Center idle time.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Focus on gathering food from sheep, boars, berries, deers, and farms (deer hunting is crucial\u2014if you can\u2019t lure them to your TC, send villagers to hunt them long-distance).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exact resource allocation isn\u2019t critical; flexibility is key.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regularly spend your resources to avoid delays in advancing through the ages.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Execution<\/b><\/h2>\n<h3><b>Dark Age:<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assign 6 villagers to food (sheep, boars, berries).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Send 5 villagers to wood, and have one of them build a house.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next villager constructs a dock to gather shore fish.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Add 3 more villagers to wood, totaling 8 on wood.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Produce 6 fishing ships and gather shore fish.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Focus the remaining villagers on food collection until you have 25 villagers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Research Loom and advance to the Feudal Age.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Feudal Transition:<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assign 4 villagers to berries.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Increase your wood gathering to 10 villagers (using two lumber camps, switching some to a second lumber camp as needed).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have 4 villagers to gold and 6 villagers to food under the TC.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have 1 villager on shore fish near your dock.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Construct a second dock to expand your fishing capacity.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Feudal Age:<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Queue 2 villagers and send them to gold.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Build a market and a blacksmith as soon as possible.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Transition to the Castle Age as soon as you have the resources.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Research the wood upgrade.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reassign all food-gathering villagers to wood.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If needed, create fire ships to protect your fishing ships from enemy naval threats.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Castle Age:<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Upgrade to the second wood gathering upgrade.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Add additional Town Centers (TCs) to further bolster your economy.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re engaging in
