       German Merc FF

       The germans have one of the nicest FF's in the game, they have
       deadly tier 3 merc shipments, a good economy, and free raiding
       party with every shipment (uhlans).
       Cards needed:
       1. All age 1/2 Settler Wagon cards.
       2. Jaeger.
       3. BR (Black Rider)
       4. 700 gold.
       5. 700 wood.
       I guess the rest of the deck is mostly up to you. Remember the
       Mercs are the base of the FF, once they're out you can start dbl
       rax etc. Might be a good idea if you don't have such a good eco
       to have more age 3 unit cards.
       My Merc deck consists of the following cards.
       In age 1:
       2 Settler Wagons.
       In age 2:
       2 Settler wagons.
       3 Settler wagons.
       700 wood.
       700 gold.
       9 Crossbowmen.
       3 Doppelsoldners.
       5 Uhlans.
       Band of Landsknect Mercenaries.
       In age 3.
       Cords of 1000 wood.
       5 Doppelsoldners.
       7 Skirmishers.
       8 Skirmishers.
       9 Uhlans.
       Germantown Farmers.
       Hire German Black Riders.
       Hire Hessian Jaegers.
       In age 4.
       Factory.
       Robber Barons.
       Guild Artisians.
       This is designed for pretty much GP map. Could work on others
       too, just nothing like Amazon.
       DISCOVERY
       1. all vils on food, wagon on crates --> house
       2. all on food
       3. train vils to food till you have 12
       4. send 2 wagons, put them on wood
       5. you now have 18 pop in settlers
       6. advance, take 4 vils from food and put them on wood
       7. once you hit 250 wood, build a tp
       COLONIAL : 4 - 5:00 (400 Wood Politician)
       1. cue 2 villigars to gold, send 700 gold
       - Important Note: SEND EVERY UHLAN TO RAID THE ENEMY! do not
       allow him breathing space. if he attacks you, send your uhlans
       round back and screw his eco, lots of players dont notice when
       they are being raided becuase there attack horn is already
       sounding.
       2. build a house
       4. 5 vils and 2 wagons on gold, 7-9 on food, and a wagon
       collecting crates.
       once you hit 300 gold without the use of crates, put all your
       wagons to gathering the crates.
       5. advance. while advancing, have all wagons on gold + 5 vils,
       build a house, have 5 on food and the rest on wood, this means
       you can have a constant supply of villigars and houses (mercs
       and uhlans eat pop)
       Side Note:you may want to consider sending the 3 settler wagon
       card whilst advancing to fortress, depending on your xp income
       (which varies with different maps and opponents)
       FORTRESS : 7:00 - 7:50 (Fast age Politician)
       Personally I'd send BR first, people will most likely go Cav
       start vs Germany since they're mostly bow in age 2 etc. Then
       send Jaegers.
       Remember, constant vils, micro, if you lose your starting BR
       there could be trouble. Even though Jaeger are strong, they can
       still be ruined by cavalry.
