The Battle of Panipat twenty-five-minute boom

Overview
The Battle of Panipat gives twenty-five minutes to prepare. Avoid early raids, expand with several Town Centers, and reach a strong population before moving on the gunpowder carts and enemy leaders.
Plan and execution
Send Villagers to gather resources and establish three or four Town Centers. Keep the starting army home until the population and economy are ready, then destroy the four towers around the gunpowder carts. Build a force of upgraded Imperial Camel Riders and Monks for the side objectives, adding Hand Cannoneers to support attacks on Alam and Daulat. Use Monks to convert key heroes while the army handles their guards.
Risks and adaptation
An early offensive can leave the base short of the force needed later. Protect the Monks from enemy units and keep enough Camel Riders to screen Hand Cannoneers and siege.
