| Kick butt and take
names! Stay alive! That's the name of the game. Sounds
easy, but when up against some of the most strategic
minds on the Zone, you'll need to arm yourself with some
of these game tips. Here are some tips:
The Camel Rider has an attack bonus against all
cavalry, chariots, and horse archers.
Camel Riders travel faster than cavalry, so
they're an excellent way to sniff out your
opponents.
Fire Galleys can easily torch your opponents'
boats and shore structures.
Combine your Fire Galleys with your Triremes for
an effective attack.
The Scythe Chariots are expensive to upgrade
(1200 wood, 800 gold) but they're well worth it,
especially against priests. The Scythe Chariots
have a high resistance to conversion and have a
double attack against priests. So if you see a
bunch of priests just waltzing about, send your
Scythe Chariot in for the kill.
The Scythe Chariot wheels can damage adjacent
enemies.
If you're playing Romans, try building a couple
of towers in your opponents' back yards or near
their gold mines. The towers are 50% cheaper!
Need to double your population without going over
the limit? Then go to your Government Center and
upgrade the Logistics. With this upgrade, each
barrack unit counts as only half a unit!
Build walls and allow only one entrance for your
opponent to find you. This protects your village
and narrows your opponents to one fighting area.
ALWAYS look for two ways to enter your opponent's
village.
Sneak a couple of your villagers into your
opponent's territory and secretly build up a
couple of military units, such as Cavalry or
Archers.
When you've reached the Iron Age, don't build
Storage Pits; build Town Centers! You can crank
out more villagers!
ALWAYS know where your two closest gold pits are!
Don't just mine one gold pit, because once the
gold is all mined out, you'll waste time looking
for another one!
Have the shortcut keys memorized! They save you
tons of precious time.
Hit F4 to view all player scores. Keep in mind
that if a player's score is higher in the Stone
or Tool Age, it probably means they're doing a
lot of exploring.
