    As a child, I played Age of Empires in single player mode, focusing on research and waiting until I reached the Imperial Age to start building an army.

    I stopped playing until a friend introduced me to the Definitive Edition a few months ago, and now I am addicted to playing multiplayer.

    Although I initially struggled and dropped to a rank of 750, I have steadily improved and recently reached a rank of over 1000 due to a four-game winning streak.

    Although I am still a new player compared to others, I feel good about my progress.

    In addition to general game tactics such as keeping my Town Centre running and minimizing idle time for my villagers, I have found that following u/SurvivalistAoE’s advice on spending wood has been particularly helpful.

    Specifically, I focus on quickly building farms in early Feudal Age and aim to have 14-15 farms by the 14-15 minute mark, allowing me to reach the Castle Age with Wheelbarrow technology around the 20-minute mark and start training double stable Knights.

    Another strategy that has been successful for me is attacking with a small force of 2-3 scouts in early Feudal, and then reinforcing with additional army by setting a gather point forward.

    Once I have a slightly larger force, I usually split it into two groups.

    One group that I heavily micro to distract and harass enemy defensive units, and another group that I send to a known eco area such as a woodline or gold mine.

    This two-pronged attack is super stressful for the opponent and often results in a quick surrender.

    This is cool!

    I started a week ago after a 20 yr absence and I’m surprised at how shit I am.

    I’ve fallen to 670 ELO..

    bottom 8% in the world.

    I remember 20 yrs ago smashing my friends and thinking how good I am at the game…

    This week has been a big wake up call!

    My castle times are super slow..

    about 20mins.

    And everyone rushes these days where I was used to being the only rusher back in my day.

    So much to learn…

    But so much fun.

    I usually only spend enough time in Feudal to build a stable/range + market + castle research time.

    If it’s a closed map 2-3 minutes.
