I'll take a peek and let you know.
Ok Vint man - first of all OP monk name (yes, I'm obsessed with explorer/monk/cheif names).
Your very early game is actually quite good. However, when building vils/collecting crates - shift/click to another task to the union workers don't go idle.
Once you get the scout - USE HIM! Best treasure on the map, but you let him stay idle.
Keep constant vil production. Usually after I get the 400 food from age up, I'll queue 3-4 vils right off.
With the 700 wood, usually go another vilage, 1 old han, consulate, and chop enough to get a market then a trade post - the seminole on this map has a really nice archer upgrade if you can sweat it.
Nice job on those Steppe's they died like the rats they are..
You had too many vils on food and didn't have the card for the 8 chu ko nu and the flamethrower. I usually go 2-3 more vils on wood than food since it collects slower.
Get the upgrades from the market you built.
Hard to do, but keep an eye on your export. Once you get to 250 w/Germans get the food trickle. Oh, nevermind you got that..
700 food and not queuing vils....?
At around the 12 min mark, once they were beaten back, I would have contemplated switching almost all my wood vils to gold and ship 700 then age. GJ getting the treasure.
Take out the saiga and great migration cards...total wastes IMO..5 meteor hammer's or iron flails are really good cards. Standard army hitpoints and repelling volley are really good as well.
Once you get full pop and you have the room, get those villages up. If nothing else you get the XP and you get pop space/line of site.
Don't forget about your monk, he makes a great meat-sheild if nothing else.
Very good job overall, not a lot to improve overall.
