Well cheating is one way, but most gamers would rather win by accomplishing
the objectives. All you have to do is build a Town Center and 2 Guard Towers
on the center island. Of course you know that Guard Towers are an Iron Age
Building, so if you do not know how to get to the Iron Age, I guess it is
easier to type "home run".

Personally though, if you are unable to get to the Iron Age, best stay off
the Multi-player sites.
