Pure OP ? I don't see how ger would be pure OP on shit maps, civs who get free mapcontrol like azzy are much more favoured here. It's a strong civ but on shit maps it's just not very good. If you're talking about re with ep maps, then I can understand better, because ger is tier 2 (probs along with france and china ?), if you consider that otto and iro are the tier 1.
I remember when I played vs Mitoe's brits on the previous release of ep (which was same as RE with ep maps for this match up). I mostly lost, much more than in most other match ups, and his brits were not even really good back then. People just keep underrating brits all the time. Brits can pressure germany in colonial and force some reaction with bows and/or mm, and destroy TP. Most civs can do that but not with as good an eco behind it as brits have. Also not sure why uhlans should be a problem for brits, they have some of the best anti cav in both colo and fortress. The real problem for brits in this mu is to find the balanced 3 units composition if they stay colo, because if they make only musk/cav then ww spam with good kiting is unbeatable, and if they make too many lbs to counter wws then they can lose to the uhlan mass.
France is definitely much better at fighting brits, for a lot of reasons. First they get musks in colo which means they can musks semi to defend the tp line while aging up, which is much scarier than an uhlan semi. Then once upon age up they got falcs, which is a real threat for colonial brit (kinda force them to age I guess, while they can stay colo vs ger). And then ofc goons are much better than wws, and also, unlike germany, france scales really well, which means that even if brits somehow manage to hold the fortress push, they might still lose in mid late game because of this. And last but not least, when the map starts to run out of food, it's almost impossible to push french hunts because they have their cdbs with their army. So you're most likely going to lose the fight for control of the food here. Only on ep, brits beat france because of the nerfs

Damn, well said Kaiser :love:

There are many nuances and situational times where you will want to target different things, but as a general rule of thumb, this is how the game of Rock Paper Scissors goes. Certain units defy this though, such as the Musketeer, which can beat or stand up well to light infantry when in the right position and situation.

Here's the thing. You said "skirmisher is light infantry".

Is it in the same unit class on vanilla? Yes. No one's arguing that.

As someone who is a community patch developer who studies the game engine, I am telling you, specifically, in this latest expansion, no one calls skirmishers light infantry. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing.

If you're saying "infantry", you're referring to the AbstractInfantry unit class, which includes things from Minutemen to Coyote Runners to Nonahkee.
So your reasoning for calling a skirmisher light infantry is because random people "call the ranged footsoldiers light infantry?" Let's get Coureurs and Arrow Knights in there, then, too.

Also, calling something a skirmisher or a ranged infantry, @Gendarme? It's not one or the other, that's not how unit types work. They're both. A skirmisher is a skirmisher and a member of the AbstractRangedInfantry unit class. But that's not what you said. You said a skirmisher is a ranged infantry unit, which is not true unless you're okay with calling all members of the AbstractRangedInfantry unit class ranged infantry, which means you'd call Musketeers, Eagle Knights, and other units ranged infantry, too. Which you said you don't.

It's okay to just admit you're wrong, you know?
