It's easy to read this civ and understand on what they are good: on the early game, they lack a consistent bonus but their M@A + tower is very strong as well as their knight rush or scout rush. On castle age you can also try a castle drop, helped with the stone bonus and cheaper Petards.

Once on imperial you have great monks cavalry and monks and some siege.

Historic background:

The theme of the civ is armored units, who is the best way to describe tibetan military on the dark age. The transport cart is here because Tibetans weren't master of the horse but they used them to transport their heavy infantry.
