house is 20 pop, 2500 hp (or2000hp) if i recall correctly, so 2 houses is 5000 (or4000hp). You had the TC down to like 1500 = 5000hp, but not all. This means you could have killed those 2 houses, WHILE harassing him, and WHILE attacking the 2nd you wouldnt be in TC fire all the time. THen he has no pop (first house wasnt a problem i agree) but after the second he couldnt send more army units or make more. And also he has to build new houses and cant make baracks that fast then or units, meaning you have some more time to get the aeana/kanya combo going
