Game One:
Otto (drew) vs. Japan (sporting)
Yucutan is the map. I go for my classic move of taking both sides of the sea and eventually get a 4 dock sea boom going after my first two produce some ships. I send 3 hussar to harass -- they can't really do anything vs. Japan, but they come in handy in the first battle. I go for jannisaries to guard my tc while I boom. Sporting shrine booms and sends some fishing boats as well. Eventually it becames spahi/jannisarries/falcs vs ashi/yumi/those anti-art cav dealies. After a few pushes his tc falls and it's gg shortly after.
Game Two:
Otto (drew) vs. Ports (sporting)
Saguenay is the map. I am ofc expecting him to go sea and I actually decide to go for an early tp rather than a dock. I collect some wood to make a dock and ship caravel + make one, since 3 cara > 2 cara. It kind works and i'm able to hold him at bay on the sea all things considered, but land is another story. I don't really know what to make since his hussar are causing me some grief. I age and go for cav archers. It just doesn't work and although I hold in there okay for a while since my sea harass buys me time, his tc boom is just out of control awesome. He comes in with mams/besterios/organs/goons against spahi/cav archers/falcs... no chance for me and very wp by sporting.
