Well I think I will stick to my main civs of aztecs and spain. They both are getting a slight boost from this patch. I still want to learn how to do a good japan rush since in treaty games they are way OP with the daiayamos and shoguns allowing you to move your whole army right behind the enemies base just after your enemies army is starting to march towards your base. Making your opponent have to switch the directions of his army then he has to march through his whole base beiung slowed down by buildings and fleeing villagers just to fight back. Giving you enough time to criple his eco

Big surprise here: Germans and Brits :roll:

I've been with the Germans during their worse-than-ports days in TWC. I will not abandon them now, either :-P

read the release notes MNBob posted...

Asian Mercenaries and Outlaws: Asian versions of Elmeti, Mamelukes, and Li'l Bombards are now not available until the Industrial Age. Asian versions of Jaegers, Iron Troops, Thuggees, and Renegados have the same modifiers against Cavalry, Coyote Men, Eagle Knights, and Light Cavalry as their European counterparts do.
