Archaic
Initial 3 Vill: 1st Vill and Pharoah goes out and builds a Dock. 2nd and 3rd Vills go to wood and builds a Lumber Camp.
Dock auto-queues Fishing Ships. (General rule of thumb considering FS: - 9 FS in archaic - 12 FS in advance, if there is no pressure - Classical: 9-12 FS if you fight classical water - Classical: 18-21 FS if you want to boom).
