How to Use Tumerok
Players who pick Tumerok typically commit to a focused military strategy from the opening, since the advisor's bonus (pezhetairos master can be trained at the fortress) compounds with every related upgrade and tech research.
Against most matchups, the bonus pairs naturally with civilizations that already incentivize military. Stacking is multiplicative with researched technologies.
Used correctly, Tumerok is one of the cleaner rare options for players moving from casual to competitive play.
