0 A.D. Guide, Chapter I: Game Objectives, Rules and User Interface Basics.

In a nutshell, in 0 A.D., you start out with three things:

    Buildings, such as civic centers,
    Units, such as female citizens and male soldiers, that you can move around the map and use to gather resources, build or fight, and
    Some initial amounts of four resources: Food, Wood, Stone and Metal.

In 0 A.D., you need to gather more of these four resources, and then use them to train (create) various units at your buildings. In turn, you will need to put some of the new units to work gathering more resources and building more types of buildings. In this way, you build a strong economy with a constant income stream of all four resources, and prepare for building a strong military.

 

0 A.D. Guide, Chapter I: Game Objectives, Rules and User Interface Basics.

As soon as possible, you need to train a large, powerful army, that can even include siege weapons and war ships. Training each of these military units costs the resources you gathered.

Game Objectives and Rules.

Ultimately, you will send off your army to battle in an attempt to destroy all your enemies’ structures that can generate units, and all units that can construct buildings. The first player that achieves this goal, wins.

 User Interface Basics.

The following inputs affect what happens on screen:

    Selecting objects: Left-click to select an object, such as a building or a unit. (Notice an outline appears on the ground at the base of the selected object.) You can select many objects at once by dragging the mouse.
    Tasks: If you right-click when a unit is selected, you tell it to do something. If you right-click an empty piece of ground: the unit will move there; right-click an enemy unit: it will attack it; right-click a tree, it will chop it to gather wood, etc.
    Moving the camera: Move the mouse towards an edge of the screen to move the camera in that direction and see more of the game world. Also: You can press the arrow keys (or the w, a, s or d keys) to move the camera.
    Rotate map: Either with Shift + Mouse wheel rotation, or with the Q and E keys.
