Overview
A Chronicles battle plan for Puru in Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition, built around its distinctive economy, roster, and technologies.
Opening and economic choice
Stone mining also provides food, letting a defendable quarry support an earlier Fort plan without completely starving the army. Oyster gathering can shape the opening on suitable maps. From the Classical Age, cavalry can recover health out of combat, so pull damaged units away and return them rather than spending them in one poor exchange.
Army composition and map decisions
Pattiyodha Longbowmen give a ranged core that needs protection, while Sannāhyas reward a controlled close fight. Use Vedic Teachings when Academy research will benefit enough working Villagers; emplacements from Skandhavaras should serve the actual defensive or offensive position. On water, improved Lemboi can protect resource access if production keeps pace.
When to change course
A quarry or Fort that cannot be defended will not pay back its economic or tactical investment. Scout the approach before moving workers.
