Recently I started playing Spanish

I'm always trying to go FF , but this strategy I use is still not perfect

So my strat is:

DISCOVERY:

4 vill go hunting , 2 collecting food crates, next wood , 1 vill build house , both go hunting

TC producing vills , explorer searching treasures , 1st card i 3 vills (all go hunting)

age up with 200 gols and outpost

DISCOVERY > COLO

if there is a need let 3 vills get some wood and build house , 2 vills to gold (if you have less than 100 from treasures/crates) , rest of vills still hunting

COLO:

ASAP send 700 gold card and then 6 rods card , let 3 vills collect gold , TC making 2 vills in meantime , send rods to harras enemy's vills but do not engage, send 5 vills card , age up with 10 pikemen

COLO > FORT

you should have 23 vills already, send 8 of them to wood and 6 to gold , rest still hunting

build houses, rax and if you can TP

train musks

FORT:

first card is 2 falconets, then send 4 lancers and rodeleros , remember to produce vills and let them collect gold and food , attack enemy

could u tell me : is that good FF strat? i dont know if I should send 5 villls or 700 wood card or how many vills to collect gold and wood?

5 villagers, put like 3-5 of them onto wood so that u can constantly be making houses etc, and as u age up to 2 put like 3-4 food sets to coin until ur at 300 then put them back to food. then as u age to 3 put like 5-10 sets to coin, keep the 3-5 on wood, and the rest to food. distribute sets as needed

And what about FF halbs?

i mean church upgrade

is it good strat? when send church upgrade? how much costs this upgrade in church?

I thought the Spanish FF was [3 settlers], [700 coin], [700 wood], [royal decree to claim the new world], age-up to colonial with governor (16-17 settlers), put outpost forward in a hidden location, age-up to fortress with the scout (not sure how many settlers [19?]), have a church up by fortress, then research [Quatrefage] at the church for 1000w to get 13 guard halbs, then you attack at 7:45 with your army, then get a rax up, start training skirms and send either lancers or falcs, followed up by hussars. Hand cav. upgrade cards are also useful.

FF means Fast FOtress. FI is fast industrial

I've tried FF with halbs and see:

it was actually quite good , but they destroyed my falconets and...

That was a team game. You harass with your 4 hussars/ 13 halbs, using hussars as halb backup or raiders, then when you have 5+ skirms and your 1st fortress shipment, you attack, but don't get greedy.

i have won some games with quatrefage ff , but still needs inmprovements

Im sending cards in order:

3 vills

700 gold

5 vills

church upgrade

2 cannons

Maybe 700 wood instead 5 vills? but then eco is a bit poor
