Feudal Age

The key thing to remember for the start of this map is: Try to have more units at the middle to receive the bonus resources and be in a position to have archers on the small middle hill at 5 minutes game time so you get the attack and hp bonus.

Try to have a mix of two units, such as scout cavalry and archers, or spearmen and skirmishers.

Use your starting resources to upgrade your units.

Use your market to buy resources if you need to but don’t overuse it as it will get too expensive.

Castle Age

In the castle age most people make samurai, huskarls and plumed archers.

Research fortified walls as soon as you can since people can attack your base early in this map.

Imperial Age

Imperial depends on your civilisation.

At 500 kills you will receive your unique unit, if you have a poor elite unit you will probably upgrade to cavalier/paladin.

Remember that you can use all unique units but only your own will be elite.

Rushing

Rushing means attacking your enemy fast to kill him.

A rush that takes too long is not very useful.

You need to be using fast units such as tarkans, knights or even woad raiders.

Don’t be fancy, just get in his base and kill his dome to finish him off.

Too many people make the mistake of trying to keep getting kills when they could have won the game by just attacking a dome.

You can upgrade to siege rams in your workshop to help you rush with some civs.

Defending

To defend in WoA you need to know how to use the store.

You can panic (tent) every 4 minutes at a cost of 500food and 500 gold.

You can buy 4 bombard towers in your base for 500food and 500 gold.

You can buy villagers for 1000 food and 1000 gold each.

You can buy a one off +2000hp for your dome and the towers around your dome for 500 food and 500 gold.

The rest is down to how well you block you base and how fast you can kill enemy units.

If you are being attacked by two or more enemies, your allies need to rush them while you hold on as long as you can.

Heroes

You need Kills and Razings to get Heroes in WoA.

Erik the Red, Frankish Paladin, Siegfried, and War Elephant: 800 kills and 5 razings
Black Prince, Tamerlane and Hrolf the Ganger : 1000 kills and 10 razings
William Wallace: 1200 kills and 15 razings
