The Chinese have the harvest card so I'll bet we could turn that into a wicked sick food strat. The one thing I CAN say about the Chinese is that like the Turks, their economy never runs out. Unfortunately, they can't produce units fast enough to compensate, so it might make sense to have them as the backbone of a team's economy since they never run out of resources.

Same could be said for India. Both ben and i were really close in resources. I had more because of all that wood i kept sending my self. But those two civs could definitely crush some one Eco wise.

Yeah Where as the Japs eco sucks balls. I can't seem to keep it up. No matter what I do. So my Jap food strat could definatly help. I played with josh today and he did it. It seemed to help, but I didn't have a good test. I got raped before I could really get situated. We won though.

I totally forgot about the heardable fattening things I have in my deck and I think I could make really good use of them in a 4v4. I can fatten 60 sheep at a time, 10 in each village I think, so combined with P_Cups, we could support you guys for a long time. Other than that, I could leave military production up to my teammates, and produce my awesome artillery out the ass... maybe a few ponies to boot.

Nice! thanks pat. Yeah I noticed that the bigger animals have on the shrines the more you get. So it would be AWESOME to have a british player or and Indian player who can send the japanese guy cows. 88 cows total. 4 x 20 = 80 + 8 for the big one 88. 8,800 food. Not too bad seeing as your going to make it all back and more. Thats really helpful pat thanks.

No problem. But I don't know about Indians. They build "sacred" cows. So I don't know if that counts. And this makes those cards such as llama ranching and that cow one, more useful!

I'm still a little confused about how exactly they work, but that makes a bit more sense. I didn't knoq you could add herdables to them! Kinda nifty. Speaking of which P_Cups, I think we could develop a really good heardable strat with the Chinese and Indians. I have the 300% gather rate as well as some great upgrades at the Shire! PFC. We'll look at it over Thanksgiving!

Yeah indian cows work, and at the cow value too When I play that japanese I ask for cows from the indian and when I play the indian I am the one who gives the cows. The only downside is that Indians use them for exp too. Ideally it would be awesome to get an Indian, a Japanese, and a British. The british would just send 88 cows to the Japanese and then just flood the indian guy with cows, since just owning the cows generates exp for the indians.

Or I could always show send you guys the goats as the Chinese! I wish we have a chance to play a treaty game today now that we all have a better idea of what the hell we are doing. I made a couple of huge mistakes in the last game so next game will be even better if I decide to play the Chinese again.
