2) How do you do early expansion without a strong bless? I can expand with about 14 jaguar warriors and a priest to bless (fire 9, water 9, blood 4) them as Mictlan but can't seem to do quite as well without the bless or with a weaker bless. I mean, i guess i could take an awake pretender and use that but i want to see what other options there are.

I think you need to practice and find a way with each nation. There are some general tactical tips and tricks of course, one thing is to understand what beats what. Archers do well against barbarians but gets crushed by heavy cavalry etc etc. If you are expanding without bless you might need to work out a few different squads to take different kinds of indies.

3) Are mercenaries worth it? there are a few i like- like hannibal's elephants- they are useful as shock troops- but the pirates seem useless.
|
Can be, I usually forget they exist so can´t say. Don´t plan your strategy around them in any case, there´s always a chance you don´t get the good ones.

4) Should i switch to using the CPM (acronym is probably completely wrong- i am referring to the mod that most people use for MP play) when playing SP so as to get used to it?
|
The CPM(celebral pharesis mod) don´t see much use, even though it adds some great content, because of the bug it causes with the mouse cursor twitching back and forth all over the screen.
(
yeah play CBM, it rocks!)
