Just beat the game in 27 weeks!!! For the first couple days only upgrade resources then move to army once the other city does. Don't go for the spirit units because they glitched and I couldn't get them even when I had the option to train them in the army menu. Give this a thumbs up if you found it helpful!
If you want to get rid of the people you currently have save the game then refresh the page. When you select the save slot your game was in from the load menu, your progress will be the same but you won't have the workers.
