I've found defense doesn't help a great deal once they've got battering rams. A nice tweak will be to make them more effective against gates but less effective

  My favorite strategy is to race to tech level 3, start building as many champion cavalry as possible plus enough temples to heal them and then bleed off the enemy army/buildings with quick raids. Eventually you can beat any number of siege/elephant units that might come your way. Full towers, fortresses and upgrades are essential though. Building a new civic center near the enemy territory early is a good way to bleed off enemy workers. Same for ships on level with some water.

  That is why you need your own rams or non-ranged warriors to destroy their rams. Also if you can deny your enemy's access to metal, perhaps with towers or guerrilla attacks, then they won't be able to build (more) rams.
