You start off with a small base, protected by Slingers and Bowmen, and two small gathering bases near the center of the map - one Granary with Berry Bushes, and one Storage Pit with Gold and Stone Mines. The Persians (red) have two bases, both somewhat large. Your Composite Bowmen, plus some Stone Throwers or Ballistas, will be enough to take down the enemy if you act quickly. Make sure the first base is destroyed before moving on to the next, and victory will be yours.
