Lol no this guy is really bad, he always does the same shit over and over : put gp, get a TP in age 1 on any start (including 200f 100w 100g lol), train 2 vils and ship 2 sw, don't make a house ofc and age up with 12/20. Then enjoy your 4-4:30 age up with a TP and 12 vils, instead of more or less the same time with a TP/market and 17 vils. Then make renegados, ship 3 dops 4 lansknechts 8 bows 5 uhlans in whatever order, don't train vils ofc, and at some point build a rax and mix pikes. OP

It's not an insane card though, because it's worth 960g, and you pay 400g for it, which means you basically ship 560g, instead of, say, 700g+2uhlans, which is 1000 res. And one could say it's compensated by lansknechts being an age 3 unit, but they're so bad it doesn't matter (one of the worst mercs, too slow for a melee unit). Also in the card description they say you get faster lansknechts instead of the free uhlans, but I've never noticed anything like this lol. Maybe they mean they get shipped faster, I'm not sure, but it will not compensate the loss of 2 free uhlans. If it was a 5 lansknechts shipment, it could work in some match ups I guess.

i dont know if u saw that in EP but i know in RE it say u get extras lansknechts when u send this card but the true is u pay 400c u get 4 and not 6 or whatever or maybe next shipments u get could be at least 1 lansknechts instead of 2 ulhans but doesnt work, that shipment is bugged since aoe3 nilla
