Native timing

An adaptation of a French BO involving natives for the Haudenosaunee for the people who think that iroquois can do more than rushing with tomahawk and spam aennas. The build requires two accessible native settlements that feature age 2 units costing food and wood (e.g Dakota with Cree and Cheyenne or Horn with Somali and Sufi)

Game plan :

After a normal opening, capture two native settlements and produce a large army for a late colonial timing

Age I :

Perform either the 15/20 TP+longhouse opening (if you have a trade route) or a 14/20 farm+longhouse opening (no tp map or livestock map). Priority on wood treasure until your 2nd building is up. Then focus on food and coin. Age up with the wise woman (crates)

In transition switch all but 3 villagers to wood. Build a market and a tribal market. "Mine" 75 coin, to be able to research hunting dogs and have 25 leftover (more if the opponent is market abusing like germany). The leftover will be combined with coin from a crate later on. Keep gathering wood and capture a native settlement with your warchief. Build the TP with the chief. Finally reallocate all but two villagers on food. The last two villagers will gather the crates and wood.

Age II :

Ship 600w immediately. Collect the crates, starting with the wood, then the coin and finally the food. Buy 100w at the market using the 125 coin you now have.

Start training units from the settlement you have and send the travois to build a trade post on the second settlement.

Your 3rd shipment will be available very soon. Send the mixed crates. Convert the 200 coin to wood at the market. Train units from both settlements. You aim to reach your build limit. If you did the farm opening, this is the moment to eat livestock.

Your 4th shipment is native treaties to overpop your natives. It is now time to push.

Follow up

Ship more units or simply send town destroyer and burn the base down. In case of heavy turtling revnak style, go age 4 and ship the light canons followed by blood brother.

Note : if you like to bully people, just rush the town destroyer card.
