Notes
Pretty standard HRE Aachen opening except you switch to a heavy wood focus to drop an Archery Range and build archers to defend the spearmen/tower Mongol Feudal push. Try to avoid placing the Aachen in the front of your base, and prioritize the woodline. From there you go 2 TC. Bear in mind this was not presented as an official "build order," but was taken from watching his match. As the game progresses he is reacting to the game flow, so plan to do the same. Examples: - In his match, Lucifron builds a RAX around 8:50 to get spearmen to deal with horsemen pressure. - He builds stables around 10:25 to produce knights after Castle Age, and uses those to contest his opponent's trade - He switches to a horsemen/Landsknecht composition later based on his opponents composition
