if he gets fort up dont attack anymore. just control map and boom. maybe try to raid a few vills on the sides. since you stay on natural ressources and he is not, your eco will most likly be better. ( of c you should be in age 3 by that time to be able to boom with 2 or 3 tcs. |

dutch has no real eco advantage( rember he has to spend 350 res fro each bank so if he has a better eco of maybe 1500 res difference adn he has 4 banks it means that he is only 100 res in charge ) vs fre so u just do a std huss semi ff or xbow huss in age 2 if u both advanced toi age 3 u should have got the advantge cause of the better units the better shipments and the coureure |

always depends on the situation. think what might be the most usful in the current situation. its part of the game being able to estimate situations and react correctly |

QUOTE(Garja @ Sep 11 2012, 10:46 AM) And just to clarify, the term better refers to French playing Major Generals defeating Dutch playing Conscripts. |
