Looking to try an experiment with units above current age, need some help

Hello! I've taken an interest in researching units above current age.

I believe it is possible to obtain CE units in Bronze Age. I also have some research that indicates it might be possible to receive even TE - OF units in Bronze Age.

Naturally I would like to test these theories. I do not currently have a city on the beta server and I do not want to create multiple accounts on my main server to test. I am looking for a guild or players who can help with this experiment. Essentially I would need goods to trade through the higher maps.

To show that this isn't just some bogus idiot asking for free goods:

CE quest which could provide helicopters in any age (https://forgeofempires.fandom.com/wiki/Derelict_Dictator) (it is a side quest that triggers upon completion of a certain map province). I know this is possible in Modern Era (without completing the PME main storyline blocker quest (https://forgeofempires.fandom.com/wiki/The_End_of_this_Chapter), it was done on my main server.

TE quest which could provide drones in any age. (https://forgeofempires.fandom.com/wiki/Drone_Allergy) This quest says "build hologram arena or tower club", but I have heard from multiple people that it actually requires you to build a cultural building of your age, Not sure on this one.

I also recently met a player who got FE troops in PME with some manipulation of the quest triggers. https://prnt.sc/qrg2a4

Reply here or contact me on my main (woodchuck321 in EN7) if you want to help out.

Thanks!

Edit: I am aware of story blocker quests. I believe I may have a way around them.

For the quests in LMA you need to build a tower ruin and that is where your pan stops working the first time.

I'm hoping to avoid that with manipulation of the quest triggers. The FE troops in PME shouldn't be possible either because of not one but two quests: the PME blocker (https://forgeofempires.fandom.com/wiki/The_End_of_this_Chapter) and the CE blocker (https://forgeofempires.fandom.com/wiki/The_King_of_the_Desert), but he suggested a way around them.

Furthermore, the CE and TE quests specifically are side quests triggered by the map, and thus, ignore the story questline.

CE units? OF units? While still at Bronze Age? Explain how.

The only way I believe it could work, while still staying in BA, would be by negotiating provinces all the way up and finding provinces giving you units of eras above BA. But, are there any provinces like that? Don't remember any provinces like that. Units from above eras come from side quests and the few that do that are well above BA quests.

Negotiating the map all the way up, while still staying in BA, hoping to trigger a side quest that rewards above eras units wont work because those side quests are era related, you will never been offered those while still staying in BA. Instead you would be doing recurring quests until deciding to enter Iron Age.
