France is a good civ against China honestly. Even on Manchuria, I don't think that the MU is China favoured, so one or two small mistakes can decide a game.

Good evening,

I am a player who picked up the game once more not too long ago. I was actually fairly quite young when I first tried to play online.
Here is a dutch mirror game that i did for practice on RE.

I suppose that I am proud of my performance, considering I had only 2 dutch games prior. Yet after watching my replay I am aware of some mistakes.

1) I give up villigers too easily
2) I seem to have villiger ressource distribution in order to age to age 3
3) I feel that that win was only due to luck (stradiots won me the game)
4) I perhaps need to refine my build order (market too early?)

I hope you find this mirror replay worthy of commentary!

Two games me playing dutch.

One of the files seems like to having a hard time what to indentify. Was a drawn out game vs sioux with base trade.

An epic drawn out game over 40 minutes. I struggled a lot to deal with the dop cannon composition so advice on how to deal better with that would be appreciated. I hope it's entertaining.

Something that might be interesting, my tournament match vs knush.
would be nice hearing about the small decisions that makes a pr45 stomp a pr30.

some toughts:
my gameplan/bo was copied from snow, found 2 recs of this working well from him so I decided to try.

maybe the plan was bad considering the map: easy to wall, corners far away to shrine, many paths to sneak ashi raids, and full of chokepoints so cav can never fight well.

but I dont want to just blame the map here, I'm sure a good brit player in my place could play better so a analysis to better understand the mistakes would be nice. Maybe the whole plan was bad here? maybe was just bad execution? i'm not sure.

This was me. Sounds like you should try out Go
