no by bBB they just mean the 5 tomas, there is no travois big button, you get the travois when you aged to colonial
destructors concern is about right, iro don't beat india lefthanded, neither does india with them. it's a tough match for both
pressuring is all you can do, your answer to their pimped up camels are the 3 unit upgrade cards in colonial plus in late colonial you got your firepit on attack dance for the big, mostly decisive battle

1) Remove the 500 food card and put a 600 food card instead.
2) Remove the 600 food card because it sucks.
3) Decide if you are going to age up fast or not in discovery age.
4) I myself never age up fast, I go for aenna+kanya.
5) If you age up fast, send 6 aenna, 6 aenna and make tomas and perhaps big button too.
6) And even more important, have fun.
