Re: Countering Russian rush
Yeah, Chaos is right. The key to beating the Russian rush is to just mass cav or cav-like units (coyote runners). Russia's early anti-cav leaves a lot to be desired, with musketeers doing only 30 melee damage vs cav.

The Ashigaru Xarxes Entrapment (The AXE)
This is a Japanese strategy that was given to me by a close friend. The general idea is to have as many Ashigaru in your opponent's base as possible.

Re: Vs fast rush?
That's the problem with Japan. It's too hard to kill their villagers because of those cherry orchards.
The only way to raid the Japanese is to ambush their mines or scour their tree patches.

Re: Coyotes vs. Ashi's.
I find that massed coyotes will actually beat anything. They are fast, cheaper than regular cavalry, and deal more damage due to faster RoA.
If a Japan player shows up with musketeers, just mix in a few maces, as Mac said. The results are devastating.

Hydrovert5 Vs IndyBrit
IndyBrit was trying a new strat here, to get as many muskets as possible. However, he also told me he was trying to do this so I knew what was coming.
A great game nonetheless.

Re: Sporting Iro vs _RUSSIA_ pr 38
To be honest, I find that I cannot play Iroquois effectively.
I find myself aging up late, even with the fast age-up politician.
Then when I amass a decent army to go attack with, they have a bigger army, and often more diverse. :O
