My strategy in AOE is to start with a good economy and build that economy.I dont build an army initially and therefore concentrate on buliding up as much resources as i can .Once im comfortable on the resoures side i then start buliding the army.
However if the game is set to tough then i lose because the PC attacks very fast and at that point of time im just buliding my resources.
The longest strech i have played is 8 hrs
I havent tried playing on a network.

despite huge flow of cash into the coutry and leadership in IT, is the literacy rate really rising? I suspest in 20 years it will still be very low, and no one will be laughing.
India is essentially an upper caste of intellectuals living on the backs of their countrymen.
I suspect that India root's in a caste system underlies the lack of desire to really improve the lives of everyone.
outsouring jobs to a nation that is cheaper by the vitue that they do not attend to their social ills.

India Literacy
In year 2000, literacy in India was below 60%. You've got a conundrum. Once these people are educated, they are going to demand better wages and compete with you for resources. That will be good for your society, but will price you out of many IT jobs that are shipped to India solely because of cost savings.

I do not believe the problem is entirely economic -- I suspect that India root's in a caste system underlies the lack of desire to really improve the lives of everyone. This is conjecture however.
