Pre-Civilization: Bronze Age Walkthrough
Notes
- You can ignore risk for at least most of the first age which means have no guards if you have population space, growth is much more important.
- When someone attack you, the color decides what you should do. If it is Green, choose that option. Red is low odds of success. Yellow is half way. Enemy Army Strength; If it is green and you choose to fight and get 10% bonus to Strength. Enemy Leader Cunning; If it is green and you choose to cheat. There is no bonus or loss most of the time. Lastly, choose Flee if both are red and you can't afford to lose people.
- At the start you actually want to be attacked. That way you get to fight and get the +10% strength from battle experience over and over while you're still in the first age. That added strength lets you keep people off guard duty in the later ages so winning becomes much easier.
- Cheat dumb enemies when you can, as it results in no loss, which is quite precious in the later dynasty.
- Despite the above tip, its actually pretty safe to have risk up to around 25-35%.
- The strength of your guards has nothing to do with neither the stats of enemies, nor your odds of winning a fight against enemies.
- Don't bother getting fishing. I'm not sure if it gets better than farming for a per worker rate, but you can grow fast enough without fishing. However especially useful until after you've beaten the game.
- Other than that, victory rides heavily on luck, so one of the only ways to get victory is keep trying and hope for better luck.

Strategy
The first tech you should get is the Primitive Animal Breeding. After some experimentation, focusing exclusively on animal farming seems to work best. I suggest you best is to gnore the fishing and farming routes. Farming is only useful when you need to earn extra food and to unlock the pyramid upgrade & the city planning upgrade. While fishing gives the most food per person, focusing on it gives you a slow start, and its max workers increases too slowly.

The next most important thing to population growth is cultural growth for technology, but you don't unlock the Monotheism, so you'll have to make due with getting Mudbrick Construction next for a higher population cap. Continue to focus on breeding, put all your man onto animal breeding. Build Mudbrick houses as soon as possible. Once you going to hit around 4000 years B.C., unlock Advance Stone Tools and Mining quickly! This will allow you have a smooth transition to the next dynasty, becuase you will need Brickstone Construction to increase your population. Wisely investing your points into Bread and Trade whenever you can.

Trade adds 20% to culture and production growth and the ability to build marketplace. Marketplace also add another 20% to culture and production growth which is absolutely helping because you will soon going to focus on production growth. Starting production early can be the difference between victory and failure, but do not overdo it. By the time you reach the final age, you have enough population to start mega-focusing on production. Switch your massive population into production and whip out the pyramid in a matter of turns.
