These games can be tons of fun. There are a few things I have noticed about games with a 25 pop limit.
1. Tool rushing is almost assured.
2. Towers are a MUST
3. Fishing Boats are less useful, since they can only do one thing, whereas villagers can do many.
4. 90% of the time they end with a Wonder being built.
5. Very defense oriented after Bronze is reached.
6. Healing and repairing actually occurs.
7. TONS of buildings get built to get over the pop cap.
Anyone have any strategies for playing a 25 pop game?
