As of the latest patch for the Rise of Rajas expansion:

- Building a house takes 25 seconds. - A house costs 25 wood. - Huns start with 100 less wood.

Assuming a standard dark age build with 4-5 houses, you're saving 1:00 - 1:25 of villager work time and 0-25 wood.

Over the course of an average game, assuming you build 3 additional town centres, you're saving 780 wood and 8:80 of villager work time.

Of course, this is all in a 200 population game.

Huns are actually a little bit more efficient than I'm describing here, as they also save the walk time to where you want to build your house, they never get po-capped during the mid-game, delaying villager production and they don't lose any idle time that your villager may spend standing around after you build the house.

It's also worth noting that there are a few other small advantages to this bonus as well, such as the ability to use all of your villagers to scout for sheep at the beginning of the game, instead of just one, as well as an inherent micro advantage, since you've got one less resource you have to worry about.

It's a pretty good bonus even if the wood savings are pretty overrated.
