Re: Port FI vs Dutch on Texas
Tough one vs. Dutch in age 4.
He had masses of Ryters didn't he! Interested in hearing how others would have dealt with this situation. Ports used to be my main civ, but, it's been such a long time since I played them I can't remember all the upgrades, etc.
In that game, would probably have tried to go skirms with culverin with a few dragoons just incase he went cav. Maybe factories on gold. LIttle point trying to raid vs. Dutch with all those Ryters around.
Didn't see either side try to forward. Would probably have been in his interests to build artillery factories at least nearer your base. Just wonder if it might have been worthwhile trying to get a few dragoons trying to catch his artillery reinforcements making its way accross the field.
