Hey guys.....guess what? At 8 min. exactly the longbows start and they never fucking stop! Thats right, they never stop. Oh by the way thanks D. You got me thinking about this one last night. You were saying that you get xp for everything you build and from your trade post. Well I get exp from all the houses I build!! ;D I am supporting it using cards just like D does with his jannies. So, like I said, they never stop. Now I realize that 8 min is 4 min slower than D. But 8 mins is the norm rush time so it works. And as soon as I get yoemen....yeah that speaks for itself.

You might be dead by 8 mins depending on how fast D and I get our shit together. If they could start coming closer to 7 mins, you'd be in much better shape.

Jake! I was waiting for the never ending longbows tonight? What happened? Also, did you guys like the fast industrial? It's a new turtle strat I've been working on that would let me fend of most rushes, and have 2 TCs and be industrial in 12 - 14 mins once I get it worked out.

I will take resonsibility for our loss yesterday. I forgot to build a mosque to increase my pop for several minutes. Didn't get to the imperial age. Didn't get imperial jans. Didn't get an imperial economy. I was a noob. A regular corp. I also wouldn't get my factories because we didn't have Tim's factory defenses. We also faced two Russian civs and their orps. I also should not have waited to go to 100 settlers. Jake's problem is he thinks he can fight long battles with 40 settlers.

Why? You had more resources gathered than Jake or (Orange I think) D despite not having a solid economy. You also had more units built than them. The other problem was that Orange built three docks, but I encountered NO resistance when I parked three galleons on the top shore and spammed Orps from them. The other guy did NOT Orp raid. Neither one of them helped us push forward until we were already through. Jake also got cleaned the fuck out as I was getting industrial. He went from 48 to 32 vills and never rebuilt them. Oh well. Also, Patrick, take a look at that NR game you guys played after. That Spanish guy was insane!

That's OK, I exalted PCups for keeping you guys as long as he did. I'll exalt D later for the stickies. Then smite Tandler for seeing Jackass over an Ages party. LAME!

take im pretty sure the brittish can build more than one unit. IM GOING TO FUCK ANY ONE IN THE ASS IF THEY CONSTANTLY BUILD ONE UNIT. unless it works. then i wont complain. But if you dont build ROYAL guard musteteers along with longblows. And jake you just got beaten by pikemen in the end, i was dealing with the frenchie, although i had to keep sending dopples over to help you guys.
