If you're a seasoned Age player or a newbie just learning the ropes, one of the most valuable tips anyone can offer is to build up your civilization as FAST AS YOU CAN! Time waits for no man, especially in Age of Kings. The faster you can build up your civilization, the more military units you can crank out, the more technology you can research, and so on and so on. And soon, you'll have yourself a powerful fortress that can withstand enemy attacks!
Here is a list of hotkeys that can help boost you to the next Age!
