If you build a long wall with many gates and your peasants are opening
the gates for your enemies you can block the gates:
--just click on the gate and then clic on tthe icon
that appears in the left corner so it will be closed
untill you will open'it again. If you close all gates not even your
allies can get resources from your land.

Its like this in a three player game when you become
an ally with one player construct 15 batterring rams
and take them to the ally's kingdom and place them
near the important buildings like town center etc.
then take a mangonel and select attack ground and
rightclick the allys building he will become mad at
you and he will become an enemy then use all your
battering rams to destroy the ally.

This tip will make an attack without 'attack'. This
is the condition - If you play against computer, you
have a neutral tribe, you have an ally that currently
on a war with that neutral tribe. If ye want to help
your ally do this. Create a group of five villager,
upgrade the Loon tech., create university, advance the
Fortified Wall, and gather stones as much as possible.
Send the Villagers to the ally base and create Fortified
wall nearby the Neutral's building, create 5 or 3 is
recommended! If your 'just made' wall is attacked it's
the main purpose! The next door building will be affect
as well. While they're attacking their own building,
create some more Fortified Wall beside the another
building, eg. Monastery, or even Town Center! -NoCheAt-

New resource menu - [Ctrl] + T
Speed construction - [Ctrl] + Q
View ending - [Ctrl] + C
Fast resources:
---------------
Use the following trick to rapidly enter the cheat codes
and get resources quickly. For wood, press [Enter], type
lumberjack, highlight the word, then press [Ctrl] + C to
copy it. Press [Enter] to activate the cheat.
Press [Enter] again, then press [Ctrl] + V to paste the
word on the screen for activation. Repeat to get resources
quickly. This may be used with the rock on, robin hood,
and cheese stack jimmy's codes.
Hint: More bases advantage:
---------------------------
To have a better chance of winning, you might want to build
more than one base. Enlarge the base you start out with,
making it completely fortified with at least two castles.
Then, send a scout cavalry, or some other fast moving unit,
to the opposite side of the map from your base. After you
have checked the area and confirmed that it is safe, send a
villager to build a castle at that location and fortify that
base. This is very helpful if your enemy knows where one of
your bases are located, especially during online play.
Free ally:
----------
When you build a market, there is a chance that a rival
tribe will ask you to send them a certain amount of wood,
stone, gold, and food. When they do, click on "Diplomacy"
or press [Alt] + D and click "Ally" on the name of that
tribe. They will become an ally free of charge. However,
when you do this you will no longer be able to align
yourself with any other tribes. This is helpful if there
are four tribes in the game.
Save resources:
---------------
When you are allies with others, do not build a market to
avoid giving them resources.
GameTip:
--------
Press "qwerty" on the keyboard at the same time and you can
edit the colours of the buildings and people

Hide Behind The Tower:
----------------------
Here is a Tip for a great idea!
Build any type of TOWER you know. Put some of your military
units behind the TOWER so the other players you are playing
with cannot see. So then when they attack the tower your
units come out and kill your oppents!
For Larger Enemies:
-------------------
Hit enter in the Imperial Age and type in "bigger baddies"
exactly the way I did and you're enemies should get huge.
They won't be harder though. This is a cool cheat, but has
no effect. Submitted by Hank Grungey
If You Are Playing A Map With Plenty Of Water:
-----------------------------------------------
Stay(walk) near shore or on the shallow, use heavy demo ship
to bomb them! One heavy demo ship can take out at least 20
infantry, monks, archers or light cavalry with it, or sevaral
scorpions and onagers. Two can take out Knights, camels and
trebuchets. Three can take out rams. Do not use them to bomb
elephant, it is to costly unless you have too many resources.
