Dutch (Captain) vs France ( Captain)

I like this map pretty much, cause as dutch you normally can ff sooo incredible fast, its nearly op :D
The Problem I had this game was, my hunts where to far away and he cept me all the time in my towncentre.
That was the reason why he had the whole time the game in his hands.
I defended him as well as I could,
and yeah in the end he did two murder mistakes.
First of all he didnt protect his vills --> murder raids
Second was he underestimated my force --> murder fight

Have fun watching it :)

Took me a while to finally watch the game, but here it goes:

It's a matter of personal choice, but on sea maps I prefer to go for early sea by shipping schooners as 2nd card as dutch. Especially in Hispaniola where hunts are low.

Haha <3 petards. I don't like playing against french skirm/goon. I like to get some falconets to help the skirm/ruyter combo and turn the table.

gg! It really felt like he didn't lose any battles except for the last one and he even still had a frigate, it could have been different if he protected his vills and tc.
