Triple Rax Lbow Pike

Post by milku3459 »

Another thing I got off of Interjection's streams and twisted to my dark purposes. Yay or nay?

Age I:
Age up with 26 villagers and 70 population space. Send all new villagers to wood. Send Virginia Company as your first card. Send 3 villagers next. Age up with 500 food politician.
Transition:
Move 2/3 of your vills to wood.
Age II:
Move some of your villagers back to food. Build as many raxes as you can, you should build 2 behind your TC in a safe place and 1 more when 700 wood arrives. Send 700 wood. Queue up 10-15 pikes as the resources come in. After 700 wood arrives, alternate batches of 15 lbows and pikes. Build a market and get all the food upgrades and gang saw. Send 600 wood. When you have about 20 pikes and 30 lbows, push out. Keep booming at home with 88 wood houses and popping out 15 unit batches, using crates to fuel army.
If rushed, use 30+ vills with blunderbuss and greatcoat to wreck all in rushes. I think the unit spam should begin before a contain can really damage your eco.

Viable? Interjection says he got it from Harcha and I think he did 3 vills first instead of VC. I've used it plenty of times myself and it's my go to strat vs Dutch, as longbows defeat colonial skirms hard. Suggestions?

FYI only 5 on food needed for constant vill production. In transition you only need 2 or so, just to get 1 vill in queue.

Also I heard Vc is bad card

Aiz subtlely trying to get people off the trail of the secret.

I've tried something similar a few times and have yet to win. Standard Brits just seems so much more reliable and safe. I might try this version of the strat though
