Re: Sporting vs Nav
Well, currently the Iro Toma Rush (Big Buttons), if executed properly, is an easy win for the Iros against the Germans.
Once the patch comes out, however, I think Germany will be fine against Iro.

Re: Sporting vs Nav
Just like a simple Ashi or Musket rush works vs germans. I tried some semi FF against such a tactic and it worked ok, but xbows definitely need that multiplier vs HI.

Re: Sporting vs Nav
Yea, Germans are the weakest in the game against HI rushes atm, IMO. Jan / Ashi / Musket rush are all very effective against them.
Next patch I think it may be a different story, although Musk / Hussar will probably still own xbow / pike unless the xbow player has great micro (this applies to France too).

Doesn't matter how much they suck when you have 36 of them before the German can get a decent amount of xbows / uhlans.

Re: Sporting vs Nav
What a joke. Those 36 tomahawks require 1500f 400c 500w, 6 toma card and 600c card, get yourself two rax and make a double rax xbow spam. If the german FFs when the iro is rushing the german deserves to lose.Doesn't matter how much they suck when you have 36 of them before the German can get a decent amount of xbows / uhlans.

Re: Sporting vs Nav
Considering the BO for Toma BB Rush is the same as FF, I wouldn't be at all surprised.
Germans suck against HI rushes, it's that simple. Next patch with BB techs moved to Age 3 and crossbows boosted, they might be better off. We'll see.

Re: Sporting vs Nav
It's true they're not good but you have told us nothing about it And the BO doesn't matter since you say BBR is free win, you should expect that as german. Next patch they have zero problems.

Playing such a game on such a high level on a laptop is pretty op. On a good PC you probably would be a Brigadier or something .

I've seen multiple recs where the rush owns Germany.
Perhaps as you say they will be adequately equipped next patch and it's a non-issue anyway.
The original point was that Iro > Germany. I find myself solidly agreeing with that. Even if the Toma Rush doesn't take out Germany, just refer to one of the recs you posted, Lisbon, where you beat a very solid German player with Iro FF.

Re: Sporting vs Nav
I agree with Sporting... unless the german is some idiot doing a FI, a tommy rush shouldn't be difficult to counter.
Germany has hard times vs HI rushes... true when those are GOOD HI, like musks, jans, ashi's etc... Tommy's r da crap
