Alright Well I'm a lv 16 Sergeant (15.969) and I've been quite successful with the french fur trade boom and the last 3v3 nr 40 game I played I noticed an ally on my team had 4 livestock pens and 3 mills. I was ahead of him for most of the game economic wise, but then he started to get an edge on me once the treaty was over... I started to wonder, because by the end of the game he had at least 500 points on me (Not to mention this German noob had Uhlans in my economy before my walls were up). Anyway... to the point... Is there a way to combine the fur trade with the cow boom in order to make the french boom more successful for a team game? The reason I'm questioning it so much is because the game I saw it in I had only 46 villagers left (stupid HM Uhlans). Which certainly didn't allow for an efficient comparison. I attempted to try a combination with cow boom/fur trade and I was very unsuccessful, my villagers were consistently idle, and I couldn't see where to put my other villagers so I made more mills... This all could have been solved if I recorded the game.. LOL Anyway, If someone experienced enough with either of the french boom strategies and, and could help me out, that would be great.

(sorry you had to read so much...) LOL

First of all, the german isn't a nub because you're the one using an OP civ, but back to the situation at hand.

Cowboom works for every civ, but it varies in usefulness. The only civilizations in my opinion that need to use livestock for maximum results in terms of eco are China and brits(they have the best ecos)

Any other civilization it simply is not that efficient with it. YOu'll find much easier Booms without livestock with the French on the TRT website, and right here on the treaty forums.

Don't do complete cowboom but u can always make a livestock pen and make atleast 15 cows as soon as you hit Age 5 for a quick boost in eco points and food.( Germans usually benefit from it)

Alright thanks man, and and btw (forgot to post this)... He chose to ready up on an opposite team to me, and chose the Germans after I had shown I was playing as the French (it's my main civ) Luckily, regardless of being a lv 15 sergeant, he managed to spam Uhlans which were litterally eaten for dinner by my 3 card, full upgraded Cruissars. He hadn't even attempted at War Wagons and Dooplesoldners... FAIL haha

its "keray"

and now I'm a master sergeant because me and my friend (french and british) beat the russians and japanese. It was funny because the russian guy decided to use war ships hahaha.

 and what does OP mean? Overpowered or opposite...?

and if thats the case wat are all the common OPs

ok u have a fewop civs they are over powered

japs being number 1

french are over powered

russians are also considered as so

now my belief is germans is over powered if used right only a moron would say other wise as i use them myself

doplers are stronger than a sumari 

and eco is very strong 

very hard to lose with germans if u play them right against any civ
