No Silk Roads for all you non-Turks. And what about Jake the Dutch, who has not yet experience the problems of not being ready for a early attack. Who knows what Tim may be now? I'll take Chris out by myself. That leaves you against 120 janissaries. Good luck B.

Oh I forgot to mention about what janissaries do to Strelets with a combination of melee and regular attack. I doesn't take long.

I also happened to think. What if only one of us needs to get Silk Roads and the others got a shipment of hussars? Poor Strelets.

Mind you at 9:00 I'd be in the fortress age with veteran Skirms (the upgrade is free, automatic, and instant) vs. your standard jans and if you all were ottos doing the 40 age2 rush, thats pretty much what we'd expect.

At 9:00 you'll be in the third age and have how many skrims? Age III will cost resources that you can't spent on military. Age III cannons might be a better bet.

I think Tim is claiming that he can hold of a rush with the Dutch! That's one we'd ALL love to see. And what would a shipment of hussars/cossacks do to those poor skirms?

Dude, i could rush the dutch with the ports, id be in the fortress age by 7:10 with 11 cassadors 5 dragoons and probably 7 halbadiers( i can only get 4 so far) shoved up your ass by 9 minutes. How many skirms will you have? Dragoons in melee mode and cassadors own skirms.
And when play the ottos online, the way i beat the russians( i used to be affraid but now im not) is get to the second age build 13 hussars and get the 3rd age and OWN those fucking strelets with spahi, those fucking murder strelets like no tomorrow.
Dopples also destroy skirms, atleast veteran, OR, yea i love lancers vs the strelet. Its so much fun to watch.

Pcups my thought was 4 Turks takes. I'm sure that a combination of several civs is best in a 4v4.

4 turks would be very fun.

I'll bet that would top our Russian game for the most annoying piece of crap of all time. However, if you had to pick only one team for a 4v4, I think the Russian and Ottos are probably two of the best choices or maybe the Germans too... Imagine a quadra-mercinary rush. Holy shit... it would be over faster than our 3v5. Do you guys think we could still do it?

If there were two ottos on one team, and they both sent silk roads, would their resource shipments get a 40% boost?

In regards to a T&B v P&D battle, it would seem that I might be a little popular. I wonder if it's Silk Roads, 40 jans in 9 mins or my wonderful personality. Tim tells me it's Silk Roads. Oh well.

I dont know D, silk roads with the FF. I think it would be our personality. I wonder how fast i can age up with silkroads as ports? To industrial i mean. Im guessing, 11 minutes, since i had an ottoman on my team in a 3v3 and i got there in 11 MINUTES, i decided to boom though instead of FFing. Didnt builld mutch military.

God patrick, with those kind of resources, you could build another dopple! Although silk roads are nice... the 40 jans are even nicer! That's what will decide it.
