Hi, I've been playin TAD a little bit, only done about 8-9 games, and I have been mainly using my TWC civs. My bro does no-rush and got an Indian city to a high level (I hate no rush) so I decided I'm going to make a deck for sup for india, and I was wondering if they are good at sup, and if so, anyone have a good strat, or a link to one?

they are OP in sup.

Anyone got any good strats or link to good strats for india?

Well india are OP ONLY if you're lieut.colonel +.

 

But anyways, check out for the Agra Fort Rush (posted by Es_Milo) OR the semi-FF (on age of empires heaven). 

It says the strategy is for 1.00, will it still work with the latest patch, or is India a lot different (I'm somewhat new to TAD)

i don't think so, any sergeant+ could make a 10/10 rush, maybe it's even better on lower levels, as you wouldn't get microed so hard

if it worked on 1.00 it'd be even better on 1.01, as India got boosted

ahhh.. the famous 10/10... dude, as Ive said somewhere on agecommunity, THIS strategy is like a pro's strat revealed to the rest of the word. So, it is like a lieut.-colonel vs a ...... captain.... So will the cap get owned big time?? yeAHH!! 

 

Also, the only way to beat a rush of such kind is skills + micro: thats something 90% of the mob dont have..

 

However, once u get good, you would realize that they have ANYTHING you need to counter your opponent: simply too flexible. With TC fire and agra, a good mate will fend off any rushes.

india is not just OP because of their strats, mainly because of their very strong colonial combo and their booming eco that they don't have to sacrifice military production for.

however, they're a tough civ to get used to and are rather easily countered below major level, that's true, but i still think that around captain/major level, you'll have to outplay an indian opponent to win. on sergeant level for example you don't have to outplay him at all, a simple german xbow/pike strat will beat any sergeant india player, who will have to be doing much more complicated strats. the player with the best micro will probably win, and civs don't matter for that.

and for india strats check gamereplays, agesanctuary, or age3heaven. GHmatt has a site too, link is in his sig.

their countet system isnt really better than others, noone uses flails in colonial. almost noone uses zams in colonial sicne opponent doesnt usually mass cav and almost none uses the rajput. so were left with a sowar, gurkha and sepoy. same as brits pretty much, longbow is better than gurkha but sepoy is better than musket, hussar beats the sowar but sowar cost less and can be used easier in colonial.

so whats better aging to 2nd with agra or the thing that makes gathering better...
