The following list of hotkeys is the ones that come by default with the game.
Go to commands:
CTRL + Q = mill (easy to access, economic building near other non-military buildings (blacksmith and university)
CTRL + W = blacksmith (the following 3 are ordered according their availability through the ages);
CTRL + E = market
CTRL + R = university
CTRL + T = monastery (monastery comes after university as I feel it’s slightly less used)
CTRL + G = mining camp (default, easy to access)
CTRL + Z = lumber camp (default, easy to access)
A = archery (it needed to be only 1 click for extra efficiency when making units;it’s easy to access)
S = stable (same as archery)
D = barracks (same as archery)
H = town center (default and fits with the rest of the setup, it’s easily accessible)
X = siege workshop (same as archery)
V = castle (same as archery)
ç = dock (if you don’t have this key use the one at the right side of L)
Military commands:
= patrol (very easy to access, very commonly used)
Q = aggressive stance (easy to access, logic sequence when looking at the buttons)
W = defensive stance (easy to access, logic sequence when looking at the buttons)
E = stand ground stance (easy to access, logic sequence when looking at the buttons)
R = no attack stance (easy to access, logic sequence when looking at the buttons)
ALT + A = line formation (easy to access, doesn’t need to be pressed multiple times quickly in succession, and if you’re looking at the army then you can keep the ALT key pressed and alternate between A and F when dodging enemy projectiles)
ALT + S = box formation (though not frequently used, it maintains a logical sequence for the other keys)
ALT + D = staggered formation (easy to access, same as ALT + A )
ALT + F = flank formation (easy to access, same as ALT + A)
Build commands:
B + Q = palisade (sometimes we need to quickly build palisades out of a surprise attack by our enemy, needs to be very easily accessed)
B + W = wall (same as palisade, to be near palisade wall)
B + E = outpost (to be near palisade and wall)
B + R = house (easy access)
B + T = mill (easy access, the “T” looks like a windmill)
B + Y = monastery (default, key near university and blacksmith)
B + U = university (default, once-per-game building, key near monastery and blacksmith)
B + I = blacksmith (once-per-game-building, key near university and monastery)
B + F = farm (easily accessible)
B + G = mining camp (default, easy to access)
B + J = archery range (to be near the stable and siege workshop)
B + K = siege workshop (default, near other military buildings, lack of otheroptions)

B + B = barracks (default, easy to access)
B + Z = lumber camp (default, easy to access)
B + C = castle (easy to access, starts with same letter)
B + N = town center (default, easy to access)
B + M = market (default, max. only 3-4 markets/game)
B + , = tower (the comma looks like an arrow, reasonable access)
B + . = bombard tower (the point looks like the ball the bombard tower shoots, reasonable access, near the tower)
B+º = dock, the vowel “o” from “dock” is a strong one, hence “º”.
Menu
Ordered by the way they appear on the top right (except the objectives window which was switched to be the pause hotkey)
F1 = Pause
F2 = Show Tech tree
F3 = Show Chat dialog
F4 = Show Diplomacy
Other commands:
ALT + Q = economic view (very useful to quickly know how many villagers you have on each resource for a better economic balancing and constant unit production)
ALT + W = military view (useful to quickly glance at minimap and see possible idle military units)
ALT + E = normal view
ALT + C = friend or foe colors
ALT + Z = flare (remember the speed with which Zorro made his mark on enemies)
Shift + S = unpack trebuchets (easy to access)
Tab = idle villager (easy to access) (mouse scroll up is secondary button for this for the mass idle villager delete trick)
