Main target for your horsemen are workers, to slow enemies progress down and force them to make towers, if used well can take all the enemy workers out and force them to either quit or remake all 50. If an enemy has a lot of towers try killing few workers and going to another enemy. It’s better to slow everybody’s progress down by even a bit than to focus a single player down, but in some cases it might me different. 
 

Team Playing

 
If you have a teammate, ask them to light knights or something else that can take medieval town hall’s down, while your teammate is going to take buildings out, your archer horsemen focuse on killing workers or enemy troops. 
 

No Team? No Problem

 
Let’s say you don’t have a teammate but you still want to rekt other players, you could just bring some workers over to the front line and use them as a weapon, how you’d ask? 
You build few rocket canons at the enemy’s base and focuse the town hall while your archer horsemen are killing workers and all the incoming troops

We are going to have: 

• 14 houses 
• 3 warehouses 
• 1 dock 
• 4 boats 
• 5 stables

 
All the Necessary Resources: 

 
Archer horsemen upgrade cost: 
 

Stone Age

First thing you do as soon as you’ve spawned in is — queue up 30 – 35 worker. 
 
You can leave few extra workers in stone age so to farm food quicker 
 
Use 5 workers to make a warehouse close to berries, after they’ve built a warehouse press order them to collect berries or press “X”. 
 
 
You use the first worker which comes out to build houses. 
Build 14 houses, preferably walling off the enemies. 
 
As soon As the warehouse is ready you take 2-5 workers off wood on to berries. 
Get the wood upgrade in the stone age warehouse and berries if you don’t have any cows, deer, boars or fish near your spawn, Take the berries upgrade. 
 
berries upgrade: wood upgrade: 
 
 
 
 
Place an Altar down and start researching asai as soon as you have 30+ workers 
 
 
 

Bronze Age

As soon as you go up to bronze age,upgrade few workers to make a Poultry Farm (asain farm). (10 workers are is enough if you have water) 
 
 
After, Getting Some Workers on food you get the population upgrade. 
 
 
You’ve got some food,upgrade your workers and send them to make a dock, queue up 4 – 6 boats. 
 
 
If you didn’t find any water queue up extra 5-7 workers and send them to woodline and use non upgraded stone age workers for gathering food. (stone age workers have a much higher gathering rate of meat than any pre industrail worker) 
 
 
Place 5 stables down and take the second stable upgrade for archer horseman, it takes 120 seconds to research and 65 seconds to make a single archer horseman so take it as soon as possible. 
 
 
 

Iron Age

Don’t take any stable upgrades, warehouse or dock upgrades, we are not going to stay in iron age for long and you should have a lot of food to upgrade your workers. Most of the times higher Age workers are better in gathering resources than the lower age upgraded workers. 
 
 
 

Medieval

As soon as you’ve reached Medieval, upgrade 1 stable, after it’s done upgrade the archer horsemen to medieval arcehr horseman which should be near the enemies. 
 
 
It’s not the best idea to delete your stables and rush ir, you are going to be low on resourses. It’s better to help your team by continuing to produce even more horsemen for further distruction. 
 
Get the population upgrade and all the vision upgrades, try pushing your enemies with towers not letting them take over the territory. 
 
 
 
To increase Your archer hoursemen effectiveness you can make a shooting range. 
 
 
 
After making a shooting range you need to get the arcehr upgrade increasing your archers basic damage from 14 to 16.
