Re: 700 food card as Russia
Wow, very helpful comments, guys. Thank you all for this statements! Seems clear now that 700F > SPICE TRADE, unless you're trying a long term plan that is not the best idea for Russia. I'm gonna try some games with an agressive strategy sending 700f as a first colonial card, when I used to send Sp...

Re: China defensive ff
I feel getting rushed as China is exactly what you want, most musket rushes or all rushes in general imo (excluding iro,Otto,russia) are easily holdable. I'd much prefer French to try and musk/hus rush me as China then face a semi-ff with stagecoach. and you honestly don't need 700w, a military shi...

You can just semi ff and win easy on esoc maps. Only on re maps u can still lose sometimes cuz bad res. But semi or even full colonial beats 10/10
Q; where do those waardgelders come from?

Yeah but thats not the actual wonder's power. So supposedly the porcelain tower is the only wonder where the passive power scales, which is odd imo.

Re: dutch check or rush play
Semi-ff only works if you hurt your opponent more than the semi hurt you. There are typically 2 situations in which u semi 1) u need semi to hold off a strong rush (typical vs early agression) 2) you see an opportunity to harrass opponent (i.e. bad herds) In other cases you probably want to do 3 ba...

Re: Tedere's Chinese Semi-ff
Question; why do all those china builds not use porcelain tower to go age2? I personally always do tp+porcelain, which means i get 1 vill less in a trade for porcelain (=7?) and the tp allows me to ship 8ckn when i need em = much better than palace where u get 3bow 3pik at ~7.30. Also much more fle...

Re: Dutch guide help
1. pikerush - 15v up - tower in transition - 3v/8pik/700w
2. skirmrush - 15v up - bank in transition (dont be scared to sacrifice a little idle tc time for skirms) - 700w/8pik

Re: China defensive ff
thing to consider is White pagoda age - save a shipment - have strong monk/disciples for rest of game Summer Palace age - gain 3bow3pike - Have free batches for rest of the game IF 3bow/pike is more or less the same as upgraded monk + 5 disciples THEN the only consideration is Free batches (excludin...

China defensive ff
So i've been reading up on china ff's lately. I was wondering, could it be viable to age up with the white pagoda when u expect an early rush (like india russ iro)? This way u have some extra force (monk + disciples) to defend. Also the disciples can be easily replenished if needed, as long as u can...

Re: Age 1 Cards without Villagers
Portuguese is very situational. Eco theory or furrier can minimize the gap between porto eco vs civ that sends vills so that u enter age2 less further behind. On the other hand the 700g/700w are much more valuable at that point in the game so i would usually vouch for that. IMO colonial militia shou...
