Specialized Build Order: 21 Pop Scouts with Britons

Why is it special?

Briton shepherds are as efficient (slightly more) with 5 shepherds as opposed to the usual 6 of every other civilization. Only needing 5 on sheep at the beginning of the Dark Age allows the player to effectively cut out a villager from the 22 population scouts build while sacrificing virtually no economy to do so.

Dark Age:
5 on sheep (6)
3 on wood (9)
1 lure first board (10)
2 to boar (12)
1 to build two houses, then to berries (13)
1 to build mill, then to berries (14)
2 to berries (16)
Lure 2nd boar with villager under town center as 1st runs out
2 to boar, build farms with boar villagers as lumber becomes available (18)
3 to wood, 2 more to current lumber camp (5 total) and 1 to build new lumber camp. (21)
TRANSITION: After boar runs out, 4 villagers need to immediately transition to collecting on a nearby sheep (1 sheep at a time)
4 leftover villagers that were previously on boar need to transition to the new lumber camp (5 total)
Loom
Feudal Age
Build barracks and house with one berry villager on the way up to Feudal

Feudal Age:
Build stable with 3 berry villagers
Research double bit ax
Research Horsecollar
Continuous villager production
Scout production
Build farms with villagers around the TC as soon as wood is available. All sheep workers should transition to farming.
Once food economy reaches ~16 workers, scout and villager production will be able to continue as long as needed.
Transition as desired.
