Pat I think that to take on the Dutch, by the time they get Ruyters and banks, you would have to come up with a better attacking strategy than Royal Guard Skirms.

I dont know, i deff. wouldnt just build skirms, but the 30% ranged resist and their crap load of attack, i think skirms have like 30 less hp than ruyters?
And dont think about melee, ill dopples waiting around. Actually i would just ignore your ruyters if i stormed with dopples. They could flatten your town in a couple of seconds.

Yeah, I've been trying to figure out why you've been promoting skirms against ryters when dopples/rodelos/jans can take them out quite nicely. Remember when you tried using war wagons? That probably took even longer than our cassador/strelet battle lol

Yea i guess ben is right, instead of going for the ruyters might as well go for the base with the dopples

Rematch 5/14/06
D & B beat P_Cups & T. It didn't take long. Apparently it doesn't take a grenadier/janissary rush long. Ask Tim for details. Some think it may be unstoppable.

Remember when mamelukes were the best attack units and bombards were good at seige and attack in ages 2. Well what do you think janissaries and grenadiers are doing in a rush in age 3? Interesting how things can come around.

Not trying to sound like I might agree with Nick, but "Beware the Turks!"

Let's see 3v3, grenadiers, janissaries and uhlans ruled. Maybe it's not just 2v2 that's a problem looking for a solution.

Maybe, but then again, it worked against two strangers. Who knows how well it would work against 3 people who know exactly whats coming?
Oh and "Beware the Germans, Ports, and Spanish"
