Tips for Romans

Use the double build queue all the time, raid with Equites Imperatoris, attack with Imperians, and enjoy the strongest wall.

What works best

Always keep one field and one building under construction.
Early: Legionnaires can raid and defend. Later: Imperians attack, Praetorians defend.
Equites Imperatoris carry 100 and move at 14: very good raiders.
City Wall gives +81% at level 20.
Horse Drinking Trough cuts cavalry crop from level 10.
Senators lower loyalty 20-30%, the most of all chiefs.
