3 Scouts → Fast Castle
SitauxProduce exactly three Scouts from the Stable and combine them with the starting Scout. Stop there by default: every extra Scout costs 80 food and pushes the Castle timing back.
Keep the group alive, force Spearmen and walls, deny scouting and protect your own closure. Do not dive Town Centers or trade into Spears merely to justify the investment.
A generic civilization should target Castle Age around 19–20 minutes. Map food, civilization bonuses and clean execution can improve it; defensive Feudal production must delay it when the opponent commits.
