Arrgh! Bloody Japs again!

Post by ruminator »

Here's my main problem. I got the same Jap player twice - he's okay but not great, but he pwned my Iroquois twice!!

Anyone fancy a look and let me know what to do ...

First game I was a bit rusty and lost some hunt time as first hunt ran out and then my micro in the battle was poor, so prob deserved to lose.

Second time I tried to keep troops alive and harrass his villies while booming a bit more. Not great, as I let troops get caught once he realised what I was doing. He attacked twice, once as I aged to 3 and second as I hit age 4 and I lost too many troops too soon and my musket riders lost the nags and died. If i'd have walled the cannon might have saved me, while I rebuilt my army on my econ boost from the 10 villagers.

I think I need help on the first 6-7 minutes at first.

Thanks ...

game 1:
a few things went wrong early game
- first villy should be out sub 10 sec
- dont shoot your hunt away
- dont build TP with a vill !!!
- converting that treasure guardian where there were 6 more outlaws defending it almost killed your WC! (28 hp left...) <== not worth it, your WC is needed for his aura
- not making vills :(
- aged up with 13 instead of 15/16

age II
- placed your Warhut closer to the enemy base (save walking time)
- make vills...

all this adds up quickly and makes it impossible to pressure japanese defense sub 10 minute, after 10 min, the japanese are unstopable
