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

And just to clarify, the term better refers to French playing Major Generals defeating Dutch playing Conscripts.

That's sort of uncalled for coming from a guy who achieved his rank by laming players with Spain all day. :crazyeye:
