Another fast Huitzilopochtli build order, this time to Heroic

Here's a build order which starts Heroic at 4:47 (6:02 completion) if all goes perfectly. Even with some imperfections, getting under 5 minutes is consistently reproducible.

This BO doesn't rely on any favourable resource placement to share a calpulli. I presume a faster age up is possible if you can share the gold with the chickens, but I'm not interested in such unique scenarios so I didn't try it.

To do this BO you must be able to get hunt under the TC, and you must have some herdables.

1. Starting villagers to gold.
2. Scout to herd hunt under TC.
3. All further villagers out of TC onto food (starting with hunt, and some will go to chickens).
4. At 50 seconds take 2 gold villagers, drop off gold, then get to work on a straggler tree.
5. One gold villager to build temple right next to gold mine. Back onto gold when the temple is complete.
6. One wood villager to build house. Also chop down a second tree as one isn't enough.
7. Now we're aiming to age up with 17 pop (16 villagers + scout). We want 5 villagers on chickens before we start aging up. I usually send the last 3 villagers out of the TC onto the chickens, then add 2 more later. A calpulli is needed for this step.
8. We need to stop wood gathering at exactly the 150 wood needed for a market or armoury, then get the villagers onto food.
9. Classical age up will start at approximately 3:25. There should be 2 villagers on gold, 5 on chickens, and the rest under the TC on hunt and/or herdables.
10. Queue up one more villager at the TC to fill the time between age ups.
11. With roughly 10 seconds to go before the age up is completed, use Blood Pact on the gold villager closest to the temple.
12. When age up is completed, take all 5 chicken villagers, force drop off the food, then build the market/armoury.
13. When the Blood Pact villager has 5 seconds left, force drop off the gold, then sacrifice to the temple.
14. The market/armoury should finish just after the villager comes out of the TC. A force drop off of more food may be needed to get to 800. The age up should be available around 4:47 or so.

It's finicky, and honestly I don't know if it's even that good. I'm not really sure what strategy would be useful. If you sacrifice another villager to the temple you could Blood Pact the Ayotochtli to take down the enemy TC soon after 7 minutes. But even that isn't the most damaging thing a lot of the time.

Also I came prepared with a video this time! https://youtu.be/2iWi9wqMOZc
