I noticed a huge improvement sending out cavalry for food, what a big difference this made, I actually won for the first time. The button (.) for idle workers is great, but for some reason it cycles through my army too who are not doing anything, is it possible that it only checks for the female workers?

Thanks for those suggestions, I think I build the barracks way too late, I was continuously spawning military from the civic center. I have also never used cavalry to hunt so will try that out when I start my next game. I was wondering one other thing when I played earlier, I noticed after a while I had 6 workers all doing nothing, not sure how long it was for, is there any sort of way to be alerted if a worker is standing idle?

So basically I have been playing 2 player games. me v random computer opponent with the settings as very easy. I start out by getting about 20 women and assign them to wood, stone, food etc, and have one build houses to increase population. I then focus on the army, and I usually can deal with the first wave of attacks, but then as I am rebuilding army as most are dead another wave attack comes and that is me defeated. Not sure what I am doing wrong. Any tips?
