I'm bored of all my other civs and i thinks that british would be entertaining, especially with fighting(rockets rock socks) i need to know how to boom properly to get a solid load of wood for longbows(including wood trade). Also card order would be much appreciated, ive noticed brits run through a *** ton of cards that they need before theyre effective, help a brother out

first off rockets suck compared 2 falcs,u want the wood trickle card and the wood trade card. if its treaty ur talking about.

if its supremacy u want wood cards trickle card in ur deck but dont send it for a little. some unit shipments. also age to 3 with 7 longbows

Ignore him.

Rockets are great. They're able to shoot anytime even when units are right next to them. I can't give you help about booming, though, sorry. I'd just imagine just keep a good amount on wood.

Here is pretty much the standard brits boom, ally with a french ally if you can, because then your eco will pwn.

age 1 - max manors

age 2 - go straight to age 3

age 3 - go straight to age 4

age 4 - send vills train from manors, and start training vills, then go to 5 when you can

age 5 - everyone on food then livestock boom, gather enough wood for plants, mills, livestock pens, etc. then send like 100k food to ur french ally, then have him send 100k gold back and send south sea bubble. you should still have enough food left and enough food gatherers to keep producing longbows. I've seen players pass 2600 using this strat. The only problem is that brits get pwned by skirms, culvs, and heavy cav, so don't get caught fighting like Spain or French, have your ally take care of those civs.

Finally a topic there i belongs :P

 British its my farvorite civs and its not for fun some have calling me the best british boomer..

Here We go:

Age1:

- Put 5 settlers on food, the rest on wood.  

- Build up a marked and take the wood and food upgrad. From now you only spam settlers on wood.

- Your first card its 20% faster wood. Your next its "train cows"

- Every time you have enough wood you make a house, but in the sec you sending the cow card you make a pen. When the cow card is finish you should be able to make 2 cows.

- From now you keep going with makeing house. When you have at least 15 on wood you start spam settlers on food, so you can get more cows out.

- Before you go to age 2 you need to have 10 cows and all house. When u have all house you move a lot of your settlers to coin and food (most food right now, but keep like 5 on wood) As soon you have 800 food you age(age up with 4 cows).

- your 3th card is 30% faster heerded cows. When you have 800 food and are ageing you make 2 pens more and make the last 10 cows. 

- Your 4th card is 300% faster eating of cows.

- Make sure You now have enough on coin so you can go to next age as soon as you can(food should nok be a problem since some of your cows now are ready to be eat.

- Remember to take the last food and coin upgards in age 2 :P

- When you are in fortess age you should have enough resocuer to go to industri.

- Put like 40 of your settlers on coin rest on the cows now. When you have 1500 coin you buy the xp from church. Your 5th and 6th cards should be coin and food.

- When you are in Industri you send estates. If you have 4000 coin you age to Imperial(you should easy have enough food cause of you cows) If not you start train settlers from your house. After that you should have 4000 food and coin and then you age.

- Your next to cards its facs.

- Keep make settlers from estates and spam them on wood (remember take wood upgrads from marked now) Build some mills when you have wood enough. And plans When you have wood to that.

- 70 on plantation the rest on mills/cows/sheeps. (no on wood you use coin to wood trade.

I Use my trade when i have 40-45k coin. But it depends how much wood you think you will need.

After your trade you start make army and upgrade it. You should be able to get 2300 score :)

Cards:

 1.Exotic Hardwoods  2.Ranching  3.stockyards  4.Fulling mills  5.Royal Mint  6.Refrigeration 7.Estates  8.Factory  9.Factory   10.textilla Mills  11.Cigar roller  12.Wood trade 13. A trainfaster card

Enjoy

very useful thanks bunches

pritty nice boom but i wouldnt take the 4 cow card when you age up 500 food is bether i think

coz 80 x 4 =320  so 500 is bether

80 x4 is 320 and the crate is 500 but in a minute the cows be fatten and worth 2000f thats a increase of 1500f instead of only 500f with a minus due to decay.

 I start vills on food and pump the rest on wood until all manors are built plus a livestock(first 4 cards are livestock). you should have 43 to 47 vils and 12 to 20 cows before aging to 2 dont forget once manors are done put 30 to 34 on gold the rest on livestock. you should be aging too 2 by 8.5 to 9.5 minutes.

If you micro right you jump back to back to age 4 at one time, make sure you have facts out, and manor card out, make all vills before you go Imperial if you can, a good average is 16.5 to 18 age 5, I have hit imperial under 15 min on Deccan. Just depends if you want capitol upgrades first or vills

 after imperial there are 2 different styles to finish to 40treaty

i wouldnt want to use my food on cows early on.. for maxing vills fastest:

After gathering crates, starting settlers on wood.. All vills coming from tc or manor go to wood unitll u have 12 on wood. After this all coming vills go to food. 1 of the 12 wood settlers constantly keeps making manors (with 11 settlers on wood its the exact amount of time). Keep making vills from tc untill u have 800 food. Then u age to 2 with the 500 food. U prob have like 17 manors at that time so put like 14 vills from food to gold. When u maxed manors put 60% of ur vills on food, 40% gold.

Age 2: go straight to 3 with the 400 wood. (the wood is meant for market)

Age 3: go straight to 4.. then task all vills on food, and set like 13 manors on gold 7 wood

Age 4: Send estates, Max vills with manors and age to 5. U should be age 5 somewhere between 17-18.30 but u maxed settlers the fastest in ur game ;).

After this what i do is when i reach 5 send lots of vills to wood, and upgrade capitol, and start making livstock pens (2) mills(3) and plants (8) facs on gold too. Well this means 25 on food and 74 on gold. 25 should be enough to constantly produce cows (if not adjust with fac or vills) Send SSB around 27 mins when u should have 40k gold..

The cow thing is with a partner to who u constantly send cows to..
