I think the -100 wood / +100 gold option should be pretty good, it either removes the potential for a 2 manor opening or force them to chop for the second manor which slows it down a bit.

Also allows for a bit more flexibility in age 2 since 100 gold is a batch of musks or allows for an easier ish FF.

you could agrue for a -50 food nerf like french got. but otherwise the civ is fine and there is no need for a nerf. brit might be a bit to good at pr40 level as Kaiser says but for over 95% of players i would say brit is one of the best balanced civs in the game

Imo brit becomes s tier once ppl have a Basic understanding how to defend, so probably from 1200 upwards. Like lets be honest with house los plus DE maps u dont even need to be good at herding just shoot the animals a few Times so theyre not super far and ure fine

you should leave your lobby games and actually play ranked in the first place before you make such statements...

wtf lol, this just isnt true at all... i play all civs to some extent but mostly eu civs (my most played civs are brits, russia, india and germans) (africa dlc i touched for a weekend to figure out the civs but never touched them again, mexico i played for a few days, i dont play usa or inca)
i didnt even get to play vs you at all.
PS: last time we were suposed to play you had to much anxiety and gave me a free win in german sup league (swed got nerfed and what should planti do now?)

ur both shitters
If I were a petal
And plucked, or moth, plucked
From flowers or pollen froth
To wither on a young child’s
Display. Fetch
Me a ribbon, they, all dead
Things scream.

this is not a proper answer to what i say again lmao, the league wasnt what this is about. i was saying you dodged me which is a fact and i never played you unless you have a secret smurf on the ranked ladder. and btw if its so important to you that you got 1.place league 3 by laming japan and sweden evry time last season then bake yourself a cake lmao :hehe: fyi this season i made the second place in league 2 by playing civs like brit germany russia spain :hehe:

I didnt attack ur personality or person just ur ability to play AOE3. And u were the first one who brought that up when i commented about brits while never mentioning anything about Kartoffel. U then u felt the need to mention that i like to play unranked (w/e that has to with the topic in ur tiny mind)

i didnt say anything about you as a person and you comment "gj retard" :hmm:
"u felt the need to mention that i like to play unranked" that was the point of what i said, i didnt say anything about your person or ur skill, just that u never play ranked and only unrated lobby.
u said "Imo brit becomes s tier once ppl have a Basic understanding how to defend, so probably from 1200 upwards" but i find it strange that you comment on rankend meanwhile never even play it urself :hmm:

Right now 64 total votes have been casted (by let's assume around 30 unique accounts).

Based on the top 2 voted options as of now I think a tweak in the manor numbers will be conducive for society to win !?
