Updated the original build. Posting a recent recorded game. Capitalism was buffed to 1.65G/s so its worth easily 2-3 vills on gold and thus more viable as a CDB replacement.

WELL DONE to:

Howdah (10.5-2): Gimmick
Revolt (11.33): Antz
Transform (7.50): Herbie

How to deal with an enemy walling up on maps with chokepoints when you play as India ? I faced this issue a few times: my enemy sets up one or multiple layers of walls and posts a few xbows/lbows to defend it (it's often French or Brits). As [mention]u1731[/mention] mentioned just send ur monks in ...

Really liked that game @look ! @P4blit0 - the Pro2Casual video I recorded with Tit and Miggo - We talk water/land etc India and all card choices and build orders. Its more longform podcast style. But it does have gameplay as well.

Cant Brits just do their own epic grens or Huss plus LB?

Haven't tested a counter Peru build but I imagine a Gren Musk Mass 8 min timing is solid.

It's cool to have a low stakes mostly fun tournament, and Aizamk vs Mitoe is a promise of some entertaining matchplay. I would rather have the player play a set number of game (say 5 or 7), with the winner of each game getting 20 dollars and the winner of the match taking home the rest of the prize...

I think its a lot more stable now. It was sooo incredibly buggy the first few months that we delayed the Team Tournament and most team players just played 1v1. Now its a bit more stable with only weird lag in 4v4s.

This was a ranked game I just played with a Japan that boomed. Some early sloppiness but its fun to watch for sure.

Build: Capitalism >> Adv Saloon >> Bank Wagon >> Meeting House >> Cree Travois >> 700 W

America vs Japan

Ship Capitalism ( I mean if you dont ship capitalism first are you even playing America?? ) I get that's a joke, but still. Just ship 3 cdbs This civ doesnt seem to have a viable 2nd or 3rd FIRST card for America so I agree. Do you think theres space for Advanced Saloon in there? Three age 1 cards ...

Finding space for Advanced Saloon as a age 1 shipment is tough considering Bank Wagon is pretty key for this and Irish vills or French CDB is as well as a first card. Thus I went TP first (200w) and sent Capitalism (which gets the bank easier). But there may be an option to do: 3cdb >> Bank Wagon >>...

Howdy!

May I recommend adding the infinite bison card for Age4 instead of 18 Wakina? this strat relies on constant hunting for long-term success and provided you fight actively, it's easy to sustain your economy with Bison, having as little as 15-20 vils working on them. Totally agree. I find in 1v1 rated...
