Hausa mechanics

Hausa has a very very potent semi ff timing.

BO
All 5 vils on first cow until you gather enough for first villager que. Then transition to herd and build granary. Convert first cow for wood to build a house once your 10th vil is in que (for about 180wood+). Save the excess wood for cow upgrade FIRST NOT granary upgrade first

( 25% on a age 1 .52 food fattening/sec is stronger than 5% on a base .84 hunting food/s.)

Age up 12-13 villagers… you will be slow at a 3:13 to 3:34 click up to transition to age2. In transition complete your cow upgrade and wood upgrade first followed by the granary. Then collect 250 wood (2 houses and 50 to help batch 10 fulani archers). Collect 380+ food (que 2 villagers and enough food to start queuing 2 fulani archers).

Build the houses in transition as you get enough wood because on age up you’ll have a lot to micro…

At age 2 que a builder from the tc for 200 influence and along with your free builder build 2 war camps (defensively or offensively depending on matchup). Send 1 villager to collect the 300 wood crates. Send 4 villagers to kill a 300+ food cow. The rest stay on hunt. Send 7 fulani archers as your first age 2 card. Once the fulani archers come in transition the 4 cow villagers to regular hunts and put the 7 fulani archers on eating 300f cows.

After you batch your first 10 fulani archers you’ll at least be at 32/40 pop (17 fulani archers!!!). You’ll convert a cow for 300+ wood and another cow for about 300 coin and macro to batch a set of 10 javelin riders (or 10 raiders or 5 and 5 whatever you need!!)

With optimal macro you should be ready to push at 6min 20 secs which about the time most FF would have just click up to age 3, so their unit defenses should be low and you should have about 100 seconds of harassment time before you have to pull back due to age up units and TC pops.

Meanwhile as you push if you intend to follow up to age 3 send 700coin as your 2nd age 2 card if instead you wanna be aggressive then send a unit shipment.
