Notes
The nature of Mongol spawn is highly variable. As such the timings can change due to different versions of bad spawns. The order and time of these steps should be taken as general guidelines. Check asterisks for more information on nuanced steps

*This build relies on minimizing vil walking distance to keep its timings. Prioritize Wood>Gold>Stone>Food (Look up a guide for a more detailed rundown of mongol TC placements.) If your gold is not near your TC I recommend to drop two of your starting sheep at your gold ger to minimize the walk when swapping 3 vils from gold to food in the first minute. (It can also be done with other food near gold.) If you send 2 starting sheep to gold your single sheep under TC will expire by roughly 2:20. Scout a tight circle around base to quickly return sheep before scouting aggressively.

**14-6-4 is the required villager count to sustain constant production of villager, archer, keshik (Extra Wood for buildings and Gold for upgrades). The amount of vils you put on wood and gold respectively diverges at this point if you choose to expand into trade instead.
