Victory!
Well it took about a week but today I got my first ranked win!! I have been playing English. I rushed my first age up into abbey and made a King, immediately entering age 2 I made 2nd TC and stables. Made horsemen started raiding him a bit trying to kill outside villagers. Sending troops back individually to the abbey if they got low hp. I rushed into white tower and as this was being constructed I built a monastery and trading post, made 3 monks in queue, and placed the spawn point to relics, as each monk spawned I changed to a different relic so they would go collect it on spawn. Secured 3 spammed some traders. Made trebuchets from the white tower and siege production, once I had 5 and a pretty sizeable army of some spearmen, knights, horsemen, trebuchets and King I went on attack. I placed trebuchets at max range of his landmarks with the foot army on hold position and just won the game. Seemed so easy. I feel like a kid on Christmas!
