Very good aztec fight for anyone wanting to learn

Tough civ match up for Magnam and alex, but WP :)
 
Also, is it a good idea to trade with india as german ? I seem to think so, and chrissl thinks so, but what are other peoples opinion ?  He did boom 2700ish i think 

watched... was a gg, well played by all.

I just didnt know why you make full mahout vs astec..wtf

Alexander shouldnt go skull box, i thought better if he just face u with skulls, and take next cliffs position with the extra army.

Yes, because you don't need to send the 3 plantation cards in treaty but you can play AA and both training cards and the gather rate for food is higher anyway, also the Indian player benefits from the team trade.

So... its worth making 16 mills and 11 plantations?

You will run out of coin a lot faster than any other civ that would do a team trade. You WILL need to go on plantations within 15 minutes. 

Plus, you will just be gaining so much food after 40 you might as well just go on plantations with 50 - 60 vill. extra wood costs men. But, i dunno. I haven't done it personally, and it fks up my distrib. 

In theory it is pretty good, but not as practical as doing a normal boom for 2500+ anyway.

Yes, you will really run out of coin relatively fast but I tried it once and it worked for me and the coin cards came just in time but idk when I sent them...

But in fact it's more stressful with a teamtrade than without IMO.

I sent nearly 140k food at Oliwallie -> i got about 150k gold -> you wont need gold next 20 min haha.

+ you wont need plantages (only one) because you collect on paddies.

+ in fact its less stressful with a teamtrade than without imo.

+ you wont need 3 (maybe 4) gold cards.

- ?

i cant watch the replay :( no aoe </3

dude... how can you deinstall aoe? :O

Even when I'm drunk I would never deinstall age.

And you have to know your computer will miss aoe.  Without aoe he won't work more than 1 1/2 year. He really need aoe to survive! :D

AoE is obviously dead since I dont know when. Why not trying to play a real game like LoL or SC2? I mean AoE is a good game for sure, but only the time which is wasted by waiting for a game ;(

Harcha:

I think germans doing trade is beneficial only because of the extra 2 cards they get in the early fight. Later you will need to pay some attention to your eco because of moving vils, but as germans start is very important.

i think it op.... german didnt need to make plantations, and can move all vill to gold just by clicking in india mill

@knight_br

I swiched the paddies when he wanted, I guess that saved a lot of wood. But does it matter that I hadn't send my coin upgrades when I did that swich ?  I did send them soon after, but I was wondering if that effect chrissl's economy at all ? 

You don't need to send your coin upgrades, just the player who gathers on the paddy should send his ups and upgrade his plantation
