    Subject: What cards do you almost always play as Dutch?
    I'm really liking the Advanced Arsenal card since it boosts every battle unit. And the Balloon to see what exactly is in store for me.

    In a standard game it is adviced to use :

    3 Villagers

    1 Bank

    700 Wood / 8 Pikemen

    700 food / Gold

    and Age up with 2/3 Banks or make Skirm / Pikes / Huss in age II

     

    Other than that for a full boom : 

    3 Villagers

    700 wood

    600 wood

    8 Pikes / 700 food/coin

    Rest depends

    You shouldn't need 700 gold... you're dutch. 

    3 vill

    ~age~ 

    1 bank

    700w

    600w

    ~age~ 

    1k wood if you going boom heavy (my preference)

    otherwise whatever you want from age 3.

    You often need 8 pikes instead of bank/wood ( I think I actually use pikes in like 80-90% of my games).

    Subject: Re: What cards do you almost always play as Dutch?
    I would say that Advanced Arsenal isn't one of the necessary cards. Dutch never go full colonial, their standard and the most effective strategy is semi-ff. Rather than sending arsenal card send food or gold and advance, then build an arsenal to research Infantry Rifling and Cavalry Caracole. You won't have enough resources for other improvements, you won't research huss hp 'cause Dutch don't go hussars, they make cannons vs mass skirm/bow. This card is useful at a late game. The necessary cards are 3 vills, 700w, 700f, 1 bank, Religious Freedom, 8 Pikes, 1000w, Bank of Amsterdam (at some cases you might not need Bank of Rotterdam because you will be in age IV at the time and will send a factory card & Tulip Speculation), Infantry Combat, Cavalry Combat, 8 Skirms, 9 Ruyters, 2 Factories & Tulip Speculation. And don't use the balloon... Just don't, you have to feel what the opponent is doing and your explorer can give you enough information for anything you need. No, you don't have to have a balloon at his tc to see everything -_-

    It's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game.

    I just realized how useful the Advanced Hot Air Baloon card is. I mean I would have to send it instead of some other card but there have been a lot of times where I could have really used it.

    When you can send factories, extra banks, tullip speculation, things that improve gathering rate, military improvents (like advanced arsenal), advanced hot air balloon is a terrible, terrible card.

    I'm not talking about with dutch, I just meant in general. As ottos I run out of cards to send pretty fast so I would just use this when we are already winning.

    Nevermind, I just got on and discovered that advanced hot air baloon was in the 4th age. This while time I thought it was in the 1st age.

    Yeah, it's not that good then.

    Advanced arsenal card is very useful for infantry, but less for cav. So, if you plan on going very heavy on infantry or you think the game will drag on until late age, it can make a big difference.

    But if you're in a team game and you're going cav, it's not so useful to have AA in a cav deck.
