What was your fastest time in reaching the Imperial Age?

Than Again I am a noob, trying to improve...
What about yours?

Fast Imperial BOs which are more or less in style of 30+2+2/3 or such, can get Imp times of 20-22min iirc. Never done them myself tho so cannot offer accurate info. After a Fast Castle of ~16min you can Boom and reach Imperial at ~27mins, depending on the amount of economy done before Upping.

Damn dude, that's pretty quick!

What he's saying, you train 30 workers in the Dark Age and then you super speed through Feudal and Castle Age as quickly as possible. It's the fastest way to Imperial, but it's also very risky because you stay in the Dark Age so long and you have no army to defend yourself.

That's not even possiable with Italians , it means FC in 15 minuets and then almost a minute later going imp..

It's more likely with Turks / celts / Byzantines / Italians

You can also use Malay , then maybe 20 is possiable

With a good map you can do 21 minuets.. standard is 22

I usually take 30 - 35 minutes but in Wonder Race, due to the fact I don't need to bother about being attacked, I can reach it before the 25 minute.

Maybe I was wrong then, but I do remember going really fast since I had deer and extra forage in the same place. If it helps I also sold all stone.

[Divine Porcupine!]

my best is 22 min with khmer. not needing to make buildings saves on wood & time.

Italian is great to do fast imp. To me, 30+2+2 is easily reach imp less than 22 min. If produce less villagers , I think its not impossible.
And its gun power units discount is also nice to do this.

I usually finish the game before getting to Imperial. But, I mean, it takes sometimes over 50 mins and I am still at Castle age... I know I'm weird, but I usually never go to imperial... My fastest is I guess around 45th min if gameplay requires it.

my arena with portuguese = 21.45

[theolonghair]

25:13 Saracens on Arabia

[Joker Des]

I started some arena practice, and one of my first times was: 20:25 for Imp, I always forget to put down houses, and after I remembered I did much better!
