Depends who are you playing to this would function.
In multiplayer the speed is essential, first tip F11 (this will show you a clock in top left corner) at 11 min. you MUST be passing to Feudal Age, at the beggining your villagers may hunt, it doesn't cost anything, and also its fast, don't forget also the wood, because in feaudal age you would needed, also if you have a good quantity of villagers, you could get stone, for the Towers.) Now, when you are at Feudal age, you go with 2,3,4 ... villagers to your enemy base, (stay near, so he/she couldn't realize that you are there, for more accuracy of the attack.) you build a barrack, and also an archery range and in the middle of this two a Tower try to put the tower near some buildings of your enemy so it would star attacking, make some soldiers to defend your base (the one near your enemy) if you have more stone continue building towers, this would distract your opponent and you gain time to improve your civilization.
An other tactic, is to make Castles and near an other one, so they would defend each other. Gain strategic points first, and make two castles as I say before, with that that point is yours for ever.
Relics are fundamental for gold, try to get all you can quickly, ( I recommend to make more than 1 monk, I would make like 20.) remember that your relics are fundamental for your civilization economy, specially if you are playing a long war, the gold would be consumed, and the relics is the only one who provides you gold, then when you send your troops to attack, also send the 20 monks, so you cure your troops and all stuff of monks, specially if you are the Aztecs , monks are fundamental, make like 50 and you would become undestructable.
Try to combine troops, cavalry with infantry and archers supports and that, manage yourself as you wish.
Catapults also are a thing to take care off. But they aren't fundamental, so don't worry if you don't make them. What is more I would prefer to spend the gold and wood in others things, but well, 15 scorpions together in a massive attack are fatal.
If you have allies, the merchants to make gold also, don't forget that.
Try always to have a good economy, with that you can make what ever you want, never stop making villagers, if you have 100 villagers don't worry, your economy sure it won't be a problem for you jejeje.
Now, If you play against Britons or Spanish you must use Goths, because of there shields against arrows, you would destroy castles, kills archers like nothing, or if you are an other civilization, make sure you build walls, and enough castles (without soldiers you can win)
The Byzantines are very good, their special units are very strong, so if you play against Byzantines use the Japanese, because their special units have bonifications against other Special unit (in this case against Byzantines special unit.)
The Persians have their elephants, so if you play against them, you may choose the Byzantines, because their infantry are the cheaper, and infantry have bonifications against elephants.
The Aztecs have very good infantry and monks, so be careful of these, but they doesn't have Stables, so you can play with britons, so you kill them from a long distance and you wouldn't get heart, (the infantry of the aztecs have little life.)
Well I hope this is helpful to you, and sorry for my English, I'm a Spanish speaker.
