Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Form Militias in the first stages of a new civilization.
  2. 2
    Note that Militias are not strong enough to defend cities against units like chariots (4 attack) and catapults (6 attack).
  3. 3
    Focus your early research on better units.
  4. 4
    Avoid using Militias for attack unless a barbarian leader stops nearby.
Tips
  • Militias are best used only in the rarest situations for offense, such as intercepting a nearby barbarian leader.
  • Prioritize researching technologies that unlock stronger military units.
