yo! so after 1 year i got eso working again and i have lost touch how to play nr40 as good as i used to. i could previously get a score of around 2000-1500 by the end of treaty, with all upgrades and 6 layers of walls. max by 19

now i can make bout 4 layers and score of around 1200-900. i can max vills by 21 mins

so could you guys give some tips how to play good with russians on land maps. thx lot

also i have problem expanding after treaty is over, howmany vills should i keep on resources and howmany should i keep outside to build and how and where should i build including wall placement thx

so basically russia 40 strat

i found my old strat i had posted it on another discussion:

 age 1: my new strat was much better...29 vills in the first age (good idea). do all market improvements except the last 2 villager attack/hitpoints. 14 food 10 gold 5 wood send the eco theory and wood fast card (while age up choose 2 vills)

age2: do all market improvments (leave vill upgrades) and age up (choose fast or anything else u want for age up) (cards: sevestapol and medicine)

age3: do all market improvemnts and age up...at the same time make 2 more town centers who are spamming villagers... (send no cards save for factories)

age4:imediatley send 2 factories on gold just keep spamming vills...finish all mines and food on map then make 5 mills - 50 vills and 3 plantations - 30 vills...do all upgrades for mill/plants. 19 vills on wood...factories on gold until u get 4k...then move factories to food until u get 4k food then factoires on wood and leave it.

age5: send church card and others as u like...choose 2k gold for age up. 5 min before treaty over...send all your wood vills to the plantations...50 food 49 gold and factories 1 on food 1 on gold. make walls and army buildings...do church/capitol/arsenal/ upgrades...upgrade ur army.

and your ready...the wood u gatherd is for your foward base + spamming forts...dont send fort card 2 early...send it later on.       My score before treaty is over would be 1500+

 but i hope u guys can give me some tips on how to improve this
