How to Play Incas
Ideal opening (Dark → Castle): Lean on the cheaper food economy to mix Eagle Warriors with a Skirmisher-heavy Archery Range — Eagles pressure the enemy and pick off vulnerable units while Skirmishers shred any archer response. A defensive Skirmisher-plus-Spearman setup is a solid alternative when you simply need to hold ground before transitioning into the Castle Age.
Ideal late-game composition: Pair Kamayuks (or Elite Eagle Warriors) as your gold-and-melee core with mass Skirmishers as the cheap trash backbone, then add Trebuchets — or Caltrop-laced siege — to crack buildings and break stalemates.
Deathball composition (closed maps / team games): Stack Kamayuks for their reach against cavalry and stacked formations, support them with Monks for relics and conversions, and roll Trebuchets forward to demolish fortified positions.
Recommended build: Eagle + Range (Feudal)
