Re: China defensive ff

That is the issue: it is super easy to scout china. I would just not play china vs. russia or otto.

Re: China defensive ff

If you are going to be defensive as china, you might as well play age 2 honestly. China can push back and destroy russia and otto's fb if they play it right. You can go pagoda wonder, or you can do summer palace and build a monastery and get the upgrade or something like that. China's army has tons ...

Re: Russian Discussion Thread

At least at my level, Russia is one of the top civs rn. Probably as good as Ports.

I think that russia is fine and that other civs were just overnerfed, but I think that strelets do train a little too quickly. Also their contain is a bit too good and bh are really stronk.

Re: ESOC Insight Studios: Fight Night

2-3 a week looks pretty ambitious to me. Smackdown was once a week and there were always problems to get good players to play in it Yeah I think it should be once a week as well. There was a lot of hype surrounding Smackdown, which was kinda due to their relative scarcity. 2-3 seems kinda excessive.

Re: Portuguese Discussion Thread

Assuming you want to do it according to EP policy, you should know that removing cards is not the way to go. Plus it's rather inferior to ATP. Why would you add a wood crate? It seems pointless, especially in comparison to other Euro civs. The extra wood crate would guarantee that Ports could eithe...

Re: Beating Ottomans with Russia

Is this on EP or on RE? Nevertheless, I think that you should go 5-4-700w or 5-4-13 as your build order, with 400w age up. You could do 300w first and 500f age up, but I would recommend doing 5-700w-4 in that case. Your first batch of units should be musks, but strels from then on unless he starts ...

its nilla.

Oh then skip the musks and just do strel/coss. I think I used to do 300w-5-4-13-700w on nilla which was pretty strong, and seems good against otto.
