• 1 Wood Villager Delhi -> Repair:
• - Barracks vs cavalry civs ( Fre, Jeanne d, Rus, etc.)
• - Archery Range vs Spearman + Archer pushes ( Eng Council Hall, Hol, etc.)
• - 2nd Blacksmith vs greedy openers (Fast Age 3, 2 Town Center, Mal )
• Move Scholar from inside Stable to Barracks / Archery Range; or to Mosque to accelerate research speed.
• If you build Archery Range, you will need at least 12 Villager on Wood

0000

• Use Ghazi Raider to raid while you get a decent group of Spearman / Archer in your base.
• Use Spearman / Archer to build Palisade Wall around your base and to escort Scholar while they capture Sacred Sites

0000

• Move Scholar to capture Sacred Sites a few seconds before Sanctity finishes.
• Don't fight too hard for Sacred Sites. Use them as a distraction, forcing the enemies to move out of their base and creating more opportunitites to raid. Obviously the extra Gold is nice, but don't take bad fights to defend them.
