Control animals
In single-player random map mode, worship the Egyptian god Set; use the code "Set Ascendant," which shows you all animals on the map. This will cause the lions, deer or crocodiles to fall under your control. It doesn't work for chickens, goats, or pigs.
Disappearing animals
Any time you see villagers starting to hunt an animal(deer, aurochs, etc.), immediately build a house directly nextto it when the animal drops dead on the land. That animal willbe disappear from existence. This causes your opponent to notget all of the food. Keep doing this repeatedly as villagers huntdown more and more animals, so as to waste your opponent's food.Delete your previously-created house in order to save your wood(except for when you play the Egyptians) and keep on buildinghouses over an already dead hunted animal. Note: This is veryuseful in multi-player Supremacy mode games, and can cause youropponent's civilization to fall apart rapidly if they initiallyresearched "Hunting Dogs" and/or if it is a hunting-typemap.
Double Pharaoh
Play as Egyptians. When you get to the Mythic Age, choose Osiris as the Minor God. When you get the improvements and god power, click on the "New Kingdom" improvement. Wait for the second Pharaoh to be generated,then use Son of Osiris god power on the second Pharaoh. You will getanother Pharaoh in a few moments and you will then have one Son of Osiris and two Pharaohs.

Easy duplicates
If you want to get more duplicates enable the Divine Intervention code and pause game play. Then, activate theGod Power. Note: This works more effectively on flaming weapons,etc.
Easy map seeing
First just press the button that is on top of the capital letter button, not the shift the other one, the map will appear in all the screen, just that it will pause the game.
Easy resources
At first you will have three to five villagers. Find some animals that you can hunt, but have one villager build houses. Use all your meat to buy more villagers. When you have at least twenty five villagers, divide them into three groups. One group will gather the food, the other gold, and the last group wood.
Easy win
- Use the following trick for an easy victory on any random map and some campaign maps. Enable the PANDORAS BOX code random god power until you get a Plenty Vault.Then enable the DIVINE INTERVENTION code until you have four or five. If you have not already done so, enable the L33T SUPA H4X0R code to accelerate building construction and unit production. Use some villagers or Ulfarsks to build a military production building (i.e. barracks); then select a desired unit for production and choose the "Repeat" button. This will pump your enemy's base full of your units continuously and ensure a complete victory.
- To win very easily on a 1 vs. 1 supremacy match against a Titan opponent, use Loki. You will need to do a rush attack on the CPU in the Archaic Age. To do this, just keep sending about five Ulfsarks near the CPU's Town Center. Then, circulate your units around his Town Center by using waypoints, patrol, and the "Stand Ground" stance close to his usual temple-building location, like the gold mine. Each and every time you catch a unit building any Temple, immediately try to kill that builder. Stay away from the Town Center's range as soon as you attack him. He will have to destroy the foundation, attack back, or run away. This causes him to waste his resources, thus advancing at a later time. Build a few houses or your own temple around his Town Center for a nice line of sight view of the "temple builder", then try to concentrate on gathering resources and researching improvements. Remember to cast "Spy" on a villager as well, and surround his Town Center with your Ulfsarks while staying at a far enough distance from arrow attacks. This will allow you to gain control of the enemy's land. If the temple builder attacks you, simply attack back from a safe distance, lure him into the darkness, or use some of your other reinforcements to team up against him. Watch out for newly created temple builders, and hunt down more temple foundations around his town center. You may want to also build some walls around his land to "confuse" the AI (block him off from going any further or near to resources). Note: If you allow a Titan player to build the Temple with success, you are almost always doomed. An exception is when you have military buildings, units, walls, and watch towers surrounding him already in the Classical Age, so it does not matter if he advances. Save regularly if you cannot multitask efficiently. Watch the CPU's temple builder and advance to the next age quickly. This concept applies for the Egyptians and Greeks as well. The only thing that you will now need is five villagers, your obelisk-casting priests, mercenaries, and scouts for some additional line of sight of the builder instead. Note: You are not supposed to be able defeat a Titan player on a Supremacy-type random map game; only in Campaign or Deathmatch modes.
