20 Eagles in 20 minutes
The reason I chose Aztecs was because they are one of
two civilisations that can create eagle warriors and that is basically it hehe.
About this strategy...
Mainly aimed for team games. It's not very useful in
duels as a flush will kill this with ease. But if you were in the pocket of a
3v3, this strategy is very ful (similar to my mass knight rush). The eagle
warriors get both armor upgrades, forging and tracking, which makes them nearly
invincible against arrows with 4 pierce armor.
- Villagers 1-6)
Sheep
- Villager 7)
House, and then lumber camp
- Villagers 8-11)
Wood
- Villager 12)
Sheep
- Build House with
anyone.
- Villager 13) Lure
boar
- Once boar is
dead, all shepherds move to boar, but if theres still sheep, keep 1 villager on
the sheep.
- Villager 14) Boar
- Villager 15) Lure
second boar
- Villager 16 goes
to build mill near deer.
- Build House with
anyone
- Villager 16-18)
Goes to hunt deer
- Villager 19)
Sheep or Boar
- Villager 20) Wood
- Build House.
- Villager 21)
Build mill near berries
- Villager 22) Wood
- If theres too
much crowd in the town centre, use some shepherds to make some farms around the
town centre.
- Villager 23) Wood
- Villager 24) Wood
- Villager 25)
Build mining camp near gold
- After all sheep
has been consumed, send the shepherds to gold - use 1 to make a farm.
- Villager 26) Gold
- Villager 27) Farm
- Villager 28) Wood
~ Click Feudal ~
Recap on what we have so far:
* 10 lumberjacks
* 4 foragers
* 5 farmers
* 6 miners
* 3 hunters (on deer)
- Make a barracks
and a house.
~ During Feudal ~
- As soon as you
hit feudal, queue 3 villagers and use 2 lumberjacks to make an archery, and 1 to make a blacksmith.
- Villager 29) Wood
- Villager 30) Wood
- Make a farm with
one of the builders.
~ Click Castle ~
- Once the deer
hunters have finished, send them to mine gold.
- Use the 2
builders to make more barracks.
Recap again:
* 6 farmers
* 2 foragers
* 12 lumberjacks
* 9 miners
* 2 builders
Research scale mail armor.
Build more houses.
~ During Castle ~
Queue as much eagle warriors as possible from each
barrack. Research chain mail armor. Research forging. Once you are running low
on gold and can\'t make any more eagles, research tracking. After you have your
25 upgraded eagles in 20 minutes, go kill the enemy (obviously).
After you sent them, keep making a few eagles and make villagers,
research economy technologies, whatever.

sheeps don't last that much, so when they ran out i replaced them with berries, and then farms. got 46 eagles fully upgraded in those 20 mins, and i think i can get some more |

i dont think Narse is telling the truth when he said he got 46 eagles fully upgraded in 20 mins. This is impossible unless one starts with extra resources. |

Aztecs are my favourite civ! AZTECS RULE! the eagle warriors own, then later backed up with jaguars.....also eagle and jaguars are opposites(40F 60G for eagle and 60F 40G for jaguar)(my numbers may be incorrect) so when ytou have a high of one resource build the right troop |

About the 20 minutes, do you mean 20 minutes in the way the game measures it?
(in the top left corner of the screen), which is 2 seconds roughly a second? Or in real time? |

Right. This all depends on what starting recourses you have and what gamespeed you heave. So please state this. And please consider this before you say that someone is bragging. What if Sir Whiteheart tried this with "Very High Recourses" and "Fast" gamespeed, then its possible to make around 50... The question is what HC_Shanks__ (author) used. Now, I don't remember if its normal to run with "Fast" or "Normal" gamespeed, but its mostly normal to run with "Standard" resources. Its a long, long time since I played hardcore, but at that time I could prolly get around 25 upped EW in around 20 min (RL) on "Fast" with "Standard". But I never played the Aztec/Mayan while I was hardcore, played mainly Chinese, but then again, I remember getting pwnd utterly by an Aztec/Mayan guy since the EW are good against CKN.... |

On a note to the Boarquestion raised by "briton sucks": No, the boar don't die on its own. The clue is that you use 1 villager to attack the boar 2 times, then run back home with that villager. When the boar reaches your other foodgathering villagers you use them to kill the boar. Now you have 340/350 (don't remember) food right next to your base. Thats good for 2 and a half sheep! So, if you are the world champion of micromanagement you can keep on luring boars to your base and get fast and free food. |

Would be nice if you could find a fast "lvl" guide, where you get as fast as possible to Imperial Age with a nice econ up and running. I think you can get around 18-20 minutes if you use the same start as here... |

I know this is very old, but nevertheless. I like the aztecs, and I was going to try this tactic, in a standard game against 2 computer opponents on hard. But, to begin with, I only start with housing for 5 units, not 10. So the first thing I have to do all the time is build a house, which of course takes time and wood resources. Do you usually start with housing for 10 units? What type of game is that? Thanks in advance for all the tips and advice, is very helpful, love this game after all this years :) |

Does the host/creater of this website still be around? I'd like to contribute more strat articles...the one's on here from me i wrote almost 3 years ago :) Things have changed, i'd also be interested in providing some players like Ruso, Dreams, Patin, Dogao, all the top 1v1/Team players at the minute for interviews to add to Zuppi's one. |

Nice tactic, works great. But I wonder if it would work on a pro player though? |
