Aoe2 HD: Tutorial: Fast Castle Age, Knight Rush, Economic Boom

This is my tutorial video on how to execute a Fast Castle Age strategy "Fast Castle" and then transition into a Knight Rush "Crush." While Knight Rushing, I also simultaneously execute an Economic Boom "Booming" strategy, in which I build multiple town centers to quickly produce villagers. In this video I go over my build order as I play the Saracens on the map Arabia. The most important part of using any Rush strategy, is to not neglect your economy while you are building up an early military.
