pretty much all tournament games with india are sepoy rushes, the only game that comes to my mind is the h20's howdah ff, that most people say its easier to counter then standard aggressive play.
The only other games that india doesn't sepoy rush, is when against something even more aggressive like russia, where india is defending..

Obviously I cant say that i'm absolutely sure about my 'always rush' statement, so i'd like some imput from you guys stating in which cases/mus there is a better build then just sepoy rush.


I accept with rsy's statements. India is the only civ having a lot of options. Not only as a FF or a FI build, they do have a lot of options in age 2 too. The reason why people rush with india because it is the standard and simple way to play india. Have you ever seen a goon type unit available in age 2 without any cards? Of course it is India's Zamburaks (In this case, Chinese keshiks are only a 'part' of it). Bringing a bunch of Howdahs into your base, doesn't make you scary? What could you do against the 'untagged' unit known as the Urmi, if its microed well with cover mode? These builds require a lot of skills than those 'tricky' German renegado rush and Otto fast revolt. This is why india is the most versatile civ of the game.

I used to play Brits and French to start with. Then, one time long ago, when playing Brits, I got outplayed stupidly hard by a Sioux player, picking up my villies one by one from constantly raiding. I basically never could leave my base. I get fascinated by them, you could say. That got me in to playing the Sioux, and the other natives. If you want fun, try out the natives. From first look, they look kind of easy, but there are a lot of trix and room for improvements in both strategy and techs and your gameplay. :love:

india has literally one build, sepoy rush. only thing you can do is decide "what kind of sepoy rush am I using this game?"

how is that the most versatile civ?

and thats why we need more Boneng in this community :mrgreen:
