ok heres my british strategy - can someone please poke holes in it and suggest improvements.
this aint in order - its simultaneous [more or less]
build 20 manors asap - team fast manors card and fast building card
build 2 xtra TCs
card that allows manors to train villies - pump out lots of villies and stick em on mills then plantations - upgrade cards for mills/plantations
factories on food initially
get the natives - quick cav upgrades, get a trade route site
get upgrade cards for muskets, grens and hussars as well as quick inf/cav cards
build a lovely little army of mainly muskets, quite a few grens, and peppering my army with hussars
build outposts [if i'm not distracted] and extended fortifications card
i usually build 5 barracks, 2 arty foundries, and 2 stables initially, then build more.
i may have forgotten a few things but hey :p
