Economy and Build-Order Principles
There is no single build order for every procedural map. A reliable economy is a feedback loop: workers gather, storage shortens travel, food supports growth, and each expansion remains defensible.
Economy and Build-Order Principles
- Wood and food usually unlock the next decisions.
- Housing must arrive before the worker pool stalls.
- Storage placement is a labour decision, not just a capacity decision.
- Stone, Iron, and Gold matter as technology and military needs rise.
