MrMilo at first i thought exploring with travios was good, now i realise that it has no LOS and 2 times now it has been killed by the enemy explorers

If you're letting him get killed by enemy explorers, you're either taking him too far from your base or using him too late in the first age. If you take him JUST as the game starts and walk him around a bit (just around the outside of your town) and find your second hunting (which on most maps is just on the outside of your town) you'll be safe from enemy explorers (because they won't be there that early in the game) and you can always retreat into your town and force him to run away from TC fire.

That said, if it's not working for you, you shouldn't do it. I like to do it because when I do I don't have to send my War Chief all around every side of my base just to look for hunting: I can send him in one direction and go creeping and find out a couple things with my travois too.

lol

MrMilo you're the man!

I really like your strategies, they inspire to develope my own. I've actually made some slight modifications to the ones you've posted here and I use them on a regural basis. I can actually win games!

If anyone needs help with Iroquios look for me Glass_Ghost on TAD or A_monk. We will be happy to show anyone who asks about our iroquios strats.

what do you do vs ottoman ?
your infantry will be ownd by abus .
and your kayen will be owned by their jannis ?

Yh, I saw that game too

Im no expert but Id have sent 7 Aennas first and then the Kanyas. He'll always get jans first, so get Kanyas 3rd, not 2nd. Raiding that early on against an Otto rush isnt adivsable, he'll likely spam crates so raiding will have less of an effect on these guys as ud think early game.

Also, micro against ottos is crucial.

Looks good! I'll try it out right now.

The Iroquois Option
By MrMilo

The new patch boosted all of Iroquois’ Colonial Age units and introduced a brand new versatility to the Iroquois playstyle. In this guide I will go over some of those options and how you can use Iroquois’ versatility to befuddle your opponent and gain an advantage. Here's a link to a Voice Over Demo (VOD) where I perform one of these options and discuss what else I could have done. If you don't have the  Xvid codec for  Windows Media Player, you can get it here.

In the VOD, the flags to the upper left corner of the screen, what do they do?
