I can't handle one at 100% HC and some of you are talking 2, 3 or more 100% HC and it being easy? I believe you, but the skill disparity between us must be incredible.

I've honestly only done it once with a BB rush and a French Semi FI with the grenadiers. It's not really good for building up skill. The AI just isn't good.

Musket and I used to play comp stomps 2v6 on Expert 100% handicap. It's definitely not easy, but if you build enough wall segments and are willing to relocate several times over the course of 3 hours of game play, it's doable. ;)

I beat 7 AIs on 100% expert on Caribbean with India. It's quite easy, I think I played the whole game with one hand and my feet on the desk. You just wall up the shores fast, because it will take time until they get warships and by that time you already erected outposts on the shores, behind walls and can sink all their approaching warships. It's sort of fun to watch them keep trying, although they have no chance. After that I just spammed urumi mahouts on their island and used monitors to eliminate them one by one.

On water maps its really easy since the AI just cant handle those. On land maps its a matter of getting industrial with an army strong enough to easily beat their army. They never really get a lot of army, so once yoy stabilize you can wait a bit and go imperial and roflstomp the ai.

What map/s did you do this on? Sounds like an impressive effort. I once did 1 v 4 expert comps (no handicap) on LGP and that took 1 1/2 hours, I think. That was long enough for me.

Usually Siberia, it splits you across the ice making a very long rush distance.
