First 5 buildings I would make are:
3 barracks
2 siege factories

Once you've got 2 trebs, send all the swords you've got and the trebs to opponent's base, hitting from a strange angle. Use the swords to kill citizens if possible, and distract the opposing trebs so yours can snipe out some buildings. This is *extremely* effective at slowing your opponent down.

In the mean time (i.e. simultaneously and ever since your first 5 buildings finish//your 6th cit comes out), you should still be building up your base, which is the time you go crazy on barracks+archery ranges so that you can pump out a good number of xbows. I'd only make a total of 4-5 siege factories with this strat.
