German Double Rax

Post by milku3459 »

Is this very different from the tower rush Kaiser wrote about recently? What's a good BO for this without getting popped? Is it even viable? bear in mind that i get access to 9xbow as I'm nilla scrub.

Dual rax is very possible as German. Arguably just as good or better than the French dual rax. You will get popped, though, for sure. No avoiding that. It's also probably the weakest of Germany's Colonial options (wait never mind you're on Nilla :O ), although it does get you a pretty large mass of units after your 700w 600w 9 bow shipments.

The build is very simple. Just do normal German stuff until age 2, grab your market and your upgrades (HD, ST, Gang Saw), build a TP in transition (yes, even on NIlla), drop 2 raxes from your 400w and send 700w 600w and 9 xbow with most of your vills on food but a few on wood. Unfortunately I don't remember the exact distribution because I haven't done it in years :(

On nilla you should definitely go tower rush, because 9 bows+2cav is just insane, and because iirc maps are bigger so it's another reason to have this forward tower
But if you wanna double rax, then yeah what mitoe said, except I would ship 3 sw after 600w, because I don't like to ship 9 bows in my base, then they have to cross all the map... And also because I don't want to delay 3 sw so much

Double rax is a more defensive build for playing against Otto, russia, or aggressive french on NIlla. You try to defend with bows and then make a timing push out if you can defeat them.
