ive been wondering. brit eco in 20 30 and 40 min is unmatchable. or is it??

is there any eco that can keep up or stay ahead. i dont think there is.

i can max vills by 15 min. and have 2 factories. rumor has it that NP can do this at 12 min. i think he was joking when he said it but it could be possible.

so if u know anyway to have a better eco than that let me know. i simply want to know if there is. although ecomically speakin, as of right now, i think its unmatchable.

(and if yall think its impossible here is a quick rundown. Fast-Industrial, and the card that allows manors to make vills. even a beginer can do it under 20 mins and max army after, all before 20 mins.)

i don't play treaty, but the only ecos that can keep up with Brits are the Dutch and Japanese(at least before 1.02 comes).

but the Dutch can't get more then 50 vils, which may give them a disadvantage after everybody max vils

okay. i see ur point. i can tell u dont play treaty.

but.

they keep up in supremacy during early game. both duthc and jap early ecos are very good and late game ecos are bad. in treaty they dont match up with brit.

the only civ i could be convinced would be germany. idk muhc about them. but i heard maxed vill with maxed set wagons, gather rate is more thatn 99. so them perhaps but i dont think its as quick.

Do you use cows? thats ur score in nr40?

I think German has better eco than Brits im not sure though

u know. i have been wanting to try cows. i is supposed to be much more effective with the cards and alll. i havent gotten around to it yet.

 but in nr 40 idr off hand. i dont play treaty alot but no one has been able to even come close to keeping up with me economically w/ brit. i mean not even close. a brit could if they do what i do. but i do remeber having more than double everyones score ina 3v3 nr40.

i honestly cant say if they were any good tho. but i have played ppl on tr who are 2nd and 1st lt and cpt in sup. and they couldnt keep up.

 i seriously dont think any civ has better eco.

You have played vs if you got dobbel so good score.  British do not have that great eco if you not use cows. Cows is the thing there make them get nice eco. Btw germany and china propaly got better eco.  

without cows many civs can beat brits eco

china? really? ima have to look into that one. what makes there eco better by so much.

and not using cows wouldnt make them worse, only more evenly matched.

the thing is, they are able to max vills so much faster than any other civ. along with euro factories and gather upgrades, (plus whatever cards u use). sets them ahead, and ive yet to read anyone explaining something thats better.

even without cows, tell me what may be better. that is if we agree that with cows is unmatchable.

( plz no one bring up aztec fertility dance, native civs eco just isnt as good as euro, mostly because of gather upgrades and factories)

Germany with 140 villager pop+ artisan guilds wins. That's if your dumb enough to have that many villagers.

 Brits, Chinese, French, Indians are all in the 2250-2350 range (French with Furtrade+ 1.25 faster gathering villies, Chinese with Factory+ One shrine tower thingy+ cows.. Indians would be sacred cows+ That one  building that increases villager production aound it+ furtrade)
