Easy way of completing AI Challanges

If any of the new players are struggling to beat any of the AIs, this is how you can beat them easily. Try this for achievement only as it will not help you get good at game.

Settings: Map: Arabia (smallest map size), Resources: Infinite Resources, Visibility: All Visible, Victory: Conquest, Game Speed: Fast.

Strategy from Easiest to Hard AI

1. Pick Huns as your civ and give AI a civ like Mayan.

As game starts, use 2 vills to build a lumbercamp and one vill to build a mill. Build right where your vills spawn. Click on Feudal age as soon as both buildings are complete.

1. As you research Feudal walk your vills towards enemy base which you can easily see due to All Visible map setting.

2. Start building Barracks near his base but out of his Line of Sight, you dont have to be too near, keep a safe distance from him.

3. You will be in Feudal Age by now so start pumping out man at arms and send them to his barracks. Make a stable and Archery Range right next to your Barracks and click on Castle Age. As you are researching Castle Age build more stables. Once you hit Castle Age now pump out knights out of your stables and overwhelm the enemy while your villagers make a university and a monastry. Once complete Click on imperial age and build a Blacksmith if you wish but wont matter.

4. Game should be over by now, if it is still going on get Cavalier upgrade and kill any enemy unit/building left.

The key is to constantly pump out army from your military buildings and overwhelm the AI.

You can pick Khmer instead of Huns to age up faster ( or the civ that gives faster age up ) but don't get housed due to infinite resources unit flood that you will be doing.

Extreme AI:

Same settings except now the map is Islands. You pick Khmer, give AI Mayan or any non-naval civ.

As soon as the game starts you click on Feudal Age research. 2 of your vills make docks constantly and the 3rd vill makes houses, lots and lots of houses. As soon as you arrive in feudal age, click on castle age reseaech and start pumping out Galleys and send them to enemy docks. Keep your docks constantly producing. Gettings complete control of the seas is your aim.

Once in Castle Age get the Galley upgrade and keep spamming navy. Make 2 vills in your TC and click on Imperial Age research. You must have lots of docks by now, make a transport ship and send 4 vills ( dock making ones and 2 newly created) to enemy island. Protect them with your Navy. Make a castle on his island then a few stables make war elephants and trebs. Wipe his off and get the achievement.

This is just one way to unlock the achievement, be creative and try new unique ways. Hopefully once your master the basics you will be able to beat Extreme AI on normal settings.
