There is no way that ports are the worst civ. Statistically speaking they may be the worst but almost no one knows quite how to play them.

the need for hardcore defence during 20 min keeps away most players, anything else is rather risky or UP

Only FF anyone actually uses in game is Ports FF.

The only other one that works regularly is vs China for heavy cav - spahi/marms/currs etc. They can seriously chew up an old han army!

Aztec FF is the best.

It's stengths are: (1) it's sneakily slow, and, (2) when you get there, your opponent expects you to have artillery or merc shipments and again, sneakily, Aztec have none.

Go Aztecs!

Never heard of the aztecs ff. I should work on this incase I do a rematch against Craz in a 1v1 and he uses ports. If I could keep up with him to age 3 then I could get some nice momentum going with jaguars prowl knights. I just love to go all sneaky sneaky with them
