Ever since I ve been playing this game I have always had a problem of gathering fewer resources than my opponent. other than market upgrades, what might i be doing? sometimes i have WAY more villagers, yet an equal number of resources, and it is really annoying. I always stay on hunt/gold mines too. I heard that it isnt worth it to build a market until 8 min or so.
tips? |

Hmm well harass enemy eco, dont allow him to get nearby mines and hunts. Get all market ups BEFORE 14 mins..it least try to. Never stop villager production, and you should be good.

If you have al market upgrades, and never stop making villagers, you will do okay.
And, if you have more vills than him, you will have more resources. Ususally |

Be sure to hit his villagers every now and then with your military, I usually find it better to bypass the enemy military for a sweet spot of villagers, then after you have taken a few out duke the rest out with your opponents army.

Ya, also, Always remember to raid. Try to take your opponents of of hunts and mines, and on to farms and plantations early in the game. That will hurt there economy.

Remember map control = good
I never leave my army idle if I'm on the offensive, constantly have your army circling the enemy base and around the map to make sure there are no pesky enemy villagers that your enemy has stuck away on a gold mine or something. Too bad this isn't like AoEII where you could just put a tower up over every gold mine and cut off most of the resources on the map. Feel free to try, but it doesn't work (at least not that I know of). |

Can someone take a look for me? I had more market ups, less idle/garrisoned time, constant villager production and twice as many villagers yet STILL had almost same amount of resources as opponent!! Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

Hi,
I checked your replay. You did a pretty good job and never had big problems. You could have built your market a min sooner maybe but for the rest I don't see really big flaws. The score is actually pretty much the same as your opponent except for the first minute. Don't know why, maybe someone from the expert community knows the answer. GG anyway |
