Between 5:30 and 7:30 usually, I get hunting dogs @ beginning, if u choose 300 meat for ur first shipment instead of 2 settlers u can advance @ 4:30.
About the time it takes to advance I don't know, 90 secs can be right... But ten minutes is way to late. AI on hard will come with a small army @ 8:00 minute.
