the first thing you should do is just tp create as many villagers as possible, and collect as much wood and food as possible. Build alot of houses, and a barrack. If theres a ocean build a dock and plenty of fishing ships. Just keep doing this for a while, then you advance in age, and quickly create a new set of villagers to mine gold and stone. Upgrade everything that has to do with mining, farming, fishing ect.
Once you've run out of animals to kill you should build a farm, with alot alot of villagers, also make sure you have alot of villagers collecting wood as well, since farming and fishing ships cost alot of wood. After you've sustained a quite good economy, create some more villagers and use them to build archery range, black smith and market, . After they're done with that get everyone of them to gather stone as you'll need them in order build alot of castles. then advance in age to castle age.
When you've reached this age build all the buildings you can, but focus on the castles, as they are a great defence. Just be sure not to place them near the sea (easy targer for cannon ships) and not to close to the town center(use them as a defence around the town instead).
This is when you start building a big army, and be sure to have upgraded alot of stuff in the university and the siege workshop so you can get mounted cannons, cannon towers and cannon ships. Use alot of rescourses to create (the sling shot thingy you get in the castel) and prepare for attack. When you have a large army try to advance in age and upgrade you warriors(befor eyou attack you should have upgraded everything in the blacksmith and the castle)
if your enemy's town is by the sea simply use cannon ships to destroy everthing within reach(start with the docks) and then use the transport ships to get your troops across. Then start the land attack. If he has a large army you should try to get a shot at them witht he cannons ships if this is not possible, just stay by the beach(or any safe location) and try sneak a small force up(some cavelery, the sling shot thingy( at least two)and infantry, and a couple of villagers) from behind and attack the houses in order to lower his population count, use the sling shot thingy to take out castles and other defence like building, guard them with the infantry, while you let the cavelery take out villagers and gold mines ect.
He will surely try to attack this troop, so go in from the other side with your main force and attack his troops. Leave mounted cannons, catapults and a small amount of infantry behind and let the cannons and catapults attack the buildings, start with the castles, houses , towers and town centers. If your cannon ships are out of use, make them blind fire at resources around your opponents base, as this will help damage his economy. Let the villagers build as many towers and castle as possible as this process is going on, and use all of your additional gold, food to create a large attack force. And then try to wipe him out.
