If you encounter an enemy scout army, try to deal as much damage as possible. Aim for regular troops rather than heroes as they can always revive them.

By knocking out your opponent's troops, you are essentially slowing down their production as they have to build a second army of scouts from scratch.

The key to victory is to keep building and collecting as you explore the map. Keep poking enemy troops and peasants to slow down their economy. As you upgrade your troops, structures, and hero units, you'll soon have an army strong enough for a siege.
