ES_Swinger - 2171
Overview-Very good comeback, as usual I loved the never idle TC boom. You didn't do many things wrong, at least not big enough to post. One of the best things you did was spamming natives with the "Cheap Native Americans" card, making insanely cheap (53 food, 60 wood!?!!?!?) cavalry Archers. The only real reason this spam actually worked, however, was he insisted on War Wagons. If he had built pikeman your native spam would've been no more. And, the arsenal upgrade for ranged cavalry might've helped you attack his cavalry before he even saw yours. You never had an idle TC(s), allowing you to have 80 settlers even while losing some to raids. Also, you killed 10 landeshenekts with 23 minutemen very good micro. There is just one more thing i have to get off my chest. You were portugese, but you never used spyglass. Ever. I mean, it wasn't that big a deal but that just seems weird to me. Very Good Game on your part.
6.5/10

Overview: VGG on your part, many things you did right. Most of these things are standard however and your cuetuch ovbiously shows i can't teach you anything You killed alot of his early game settlers, crippling him a little bit. This was just a little bit too late for he already had the economy required for his native spam. You never gave up on your raids, and you got mercs out. He microed off your Landeshenekts with his minutemen and your Black Riders/ War Wagons got microed off by his cheap Comanche Horse Archers. If you had started to spam pikeman, he would've had no way to counter you because he didn't build a barracks the entire game . You built some cannons later on, but i do not understand why. If it was just for anti-building, like i said pikeman would've done the job much cheaper and would've slaughtered his cavalry spam at the same time. VGG, but Swinger was just a tiny bit better.
6/10
6.25/10
Overall
Both players were very good, many things done right and few things done wrong. This is all i have to say, i'm done rambling.

You can't build natives from anywhere, great plains have alot of native settlement but they quite centralised, just this game it had been a bit hard but others you should probably attack the trade posts and take away the source of the natives, instead of kill natives that will come back in 1 min.
