Build a house first with two villagers and another house with the other. While the houses are building train villagers and keep training them until you have to go feudal.

Put your first 5 villagers on sheep as soon as you find them... if you don't find them straight away then find the berries and build a mill with all villagers at once, get berries until you have found your sheep, then switch villagers back to sheep. If you are close to the sea or a river, then shore fishing is better than berries, so you may consider building a mill on the coast and shore fishing with a few villys.

Villagers 6 to 10 go on wood.

Villagers 11 to 14 go to wild boar or hunting, shift villagers from sheep to hunting when sheep stock has depleted. If theres more than 3 deer in a group, its worth building a mill near them.

Villagers 15 onwards go on wood.

Its time to build a dock, try to build it near a large patch of water where you have more chance of getting a large fish stock.

Train fishing boats non stop, send one around the water to reveal the patches, then subsequent ones directly to patches.

Send all subsequent villagers to wood until food is enough to advance to Feudal age. (You should have around 45 villagers / Boats).

When the berries /shore fishing is gone put these guys on gold and build a mining camp.

When you get to feudal age, train 2 villagers and build first market, then blacksmith.

When market is finished trade 200 stone for gold (if you need to) and immediately upgrade to castle age.

When hunters are finished put them on farms.

Stop training fishing boats when you have one on each available patch.

Upgrade Gold mining and Double Bit Axe as soon as you have the resources.

Build a stables near to enemy town

Build a town centre near to enemy wood and train villagers and garrison them inside.

Build a barracks, stables and siege workshop within range of the town centre and upgrade fletching and bodkin arrow.

Get some knights and hit choppers / gold miners

Start building farms in main town and upgrade horse collar and heavy plow.

Send in all battering rams and destroy TC.

Because chinese start with three extra villagers and 150 less food, then the strategies can be fairly different from other civilizations.

The main concern early has to be getting food in quickly, otherwise it is not possible to train villagers non stop.

This means that if you find your forage bushes before your sheep then quickly start foraging to get that vital food to be able to train another villager.

Put your first 7villagers on sheep as soon as you find them... if you don't find them straight away then find the berries and build a mill with all villagers at once, get berries until you have found your sheep, then switch villagers back to sheep. If you are close to the sea, then shore fishing is better than berries, so you may consider building a mill on the coast and shore fishing with a few villys.

Villagers 8 to 10 go on wood.

Villagers 11 to 13 get wild boar.
