It's okay to use your own name if you prefer. However, you might want to choose a name you really like, such as your favorite actor's name. Alternatively, you could use a name that works for any gender. For example, names like "Alex," "Andy," "Asher, or even "Cyrus are great names that work for any gender. Girls typically have higher-pitched voices than boys, but this isn't always the case. For example, Scarlett Johansson is known for her deep voice. Play around with your voice to see how you want to sound while you're wearing your disguise. It's helpful to practice your voice with someone you trust who can give you an opinion about how you sound. To help you change your voice, look up videos online that offer tips on how to sound more like a boy or girl, depending on your disguise. Additionally, take shorter strides and try to keep your knees close together and your elbows pressed in toward your body. Girls typically shrink to take up less space, so keep that in mind as you move around. Walk slowly when you're getting used to walking more like a girl. If you're wearing heels, be careful that you don't fall or stomp around. Give yourself time to get used to them. Squat slightly to make your spread-leg stance appear more natural. Additionally, hunch your shoulders forward slightly. To avoid using your hands too much, put them in your pockets or carry something you can play with, such as your phone. Boys don't use their hands as much when they talk. Additionally, they usually keep their hands occupied. It can also help to keep your movements more stiff. Society often teaches girls to be more modest, so it's common for them to sit with their legs together or with one leg crossed over the other. Adopting either of these poses while you're sitting will help you appear more like a girl. This is especially important if you decided to wear a dress. If you don't keep your legs together, people are going to see up your skirt. Males often feel more comfortable when they spread their legs and arms when sitting. This is because of the way their body is constructed. Some people call this tendency to spread out "manspreading." If you want people to think you're a boy, sitting with your knees apart and your arms stretched out around you can help. Don't worry about taking up too much space when you're "manspreading." Remember, there's no one way to be a boy or a girl, so what you want to talk about will depend on your own preferences. Think about the type of boy or girl you would like to be, then pick topics that seem like they fit with your desired self-image. For example, both boys and girls can like sports.

Summary: Pick a new name to use while in disguise, if you'd like. Alter the tone of your voice to make it higher or lower. Swivel your hips and rotate your shoulders to walk like a girl. Take long strides and walk with your legs apart to look like a boy. Sit with your legs crossed or your knees together if you're pretending to be a girl. Spread out when you sit if you're pretending to be a boy. Talk like the type of girl or boy you want to be.

Measure all of the spices into a large, nonmetal bowl. Add 1 cup (120 ml) of water to the bowl, then whisk the mixture thoroughly to incorporate the ingredients. You don't have to mix the seasonings and water, but it is recommended. Mixing the seasonings with water first makes it much easier to evenly distribute the spices throughout the meat. Ground beef and ground chuck are both great choices for summer sausage. If your ground beef is frozen, defrost it first. Unwrap the meat and place it into the seasoned water in the bowl. You may want to put on plastic gloves first, since you'll be handling a lot of meat in this recipe. If you choose not to wear gloves, always wash your hands thoroughly after handling the meat. This is very similar to kneading dough. Stick your hands into the bowl and press down into the meat. Squish the meat between your fingers, pull it apart, move it around, and so on until the spice mixture gets evenly distributed into the meat. Stop once everything is thoroughly combined. Don't over mix the meat! This will make it tough. Only manipulate the meat enough to evenly season it. If your bowl has a lid, snap that on. If it doesn't, you can cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Place the covered meat in the fridge and chill it until the next day. It's totally fine if there's still some seasoned water in the bowl with the meat. It will get soaked up while the meat cures.

Summary: Mix the seasonings and water in a nonmetal bowl. Add the ground beef to the bowl. Use your hands to thoroughly combine the seasonings and beef. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the meat for 24 hours.

However, as the game progresses, it becomes harder and harder to give advice. As an example, if your opponent builds three stables you should make a lot of pikemen to counter cavalry. But the number of strategies you can use at this point is so large that it's impossible to say that something is wrong to do. The later units become more gold-demanding (especially artillery), so an extra plantation is a good idea. Also, you should be exhausted for natural resources at this point, so if you still have villagers hunting half-across the map, pull them back and build a mill instead. If you're low on wood, consider some extra gold and use the market to buy wood. But it's not cost-effective, so only buy wood when you need it badly (for buildings or ships). With units, you should be able to find an alternative without a wood-cost. Be offensive with the placement of your fortress, but don't overreach yourself. If you can't back up your fortress with forces at a few moments notice you risk losing it. Remember that units not fighting are a waste and that upgrading units is more effective when you already have them. Likewise, don't upgrade units if you don't have any. Beyond the Fortress Age, the idea of the game is to basically keep producing troops and tech-ing up. Cards are your friends. Your card shipments are incredibly useful. Somethings such as forts and military units have to wait for there are many more useful shipments. Increasing your speed time of infantry and cavalry is very useful and needed. Make a deck that suits you but have many essential cards such as crates of wood, food, or coin or many improvements to give you an advantage against your opponent.
Summary: Try to respond to your opponents' building and counter his units. Try to macro up regardless. Get your fortress up as soon as possible. Do not feel limited by a population cap of 200.
