In the era of feudal warfare, it is essential to be cautious when venturing out into enemy territory.

If a meso scout is discovered by a hostile horse scout, it is likely that the meso scout will be defeated.

As such, it is important to assess the risk before leaving one’s base and to only do so when one has the military strength to back them up.

Alternatively, one could take a chance and explore as much as possible, though this carries a greater risk of being discovered.

just take the fight and build a 2nd one.

you want the scouting information.

not pretty, but you get other advantages with the civ.

I’m no expert but I would say, it depends.

If you can, bring it back to your TC or your own vills to sway the advantage, Eagle Scout has more vision than scouts so if you are quick you can keep away.

Also it can heal in the TC.

Couple outside the box thoughts –

1.

Try to keep an elevation advantage when possible

2.

Knowing your eagle is a target, mixing in a single spear and baiting the enemy scout towards it can be viable

3.

You can make an additional eagle but it is slow to train

4.

You being able to heal your scout is helpful, but by the time it takes effect your scouting info is primarily coming from any aggression you’re putting on

5.

Just because the enemy starts to fight you doesn’t mean you NEED to commit to the fight.

You can absolutely run towards the rest of your army.

Scout early in dark age, don’t push deer unless you have a very good reason, then come back to your base around the 20 pop timing (18 if playing Vs Mongols or Lith) and push deer then, or just hang around.

If found, get a couple hits then retreat to TC.

Once in feudal, make a spear, problem solved.
