+ Eventhough some people might consider this lame, you put your forward warhut in a very good place. + When you hit indus, you got 7 light canons onto the field quickly, the main reason you won.
-At 3:00, you were standing between a treasure guarded by dogs and one guarded by bears. It would have been better to convert a bear even if you wanted the treasure guarded by dogs. -You were having problems with your settler production in colonial. Experiment with how many settlers you need on what resource so you can keep up settler and unit production without getting housed. -To counter an xbow spam, kanyas would have been more appropriate than aennas. -You used your explorer's crackshot just before you hit fortress. Remember that it can kill 6 xbows in one shot if you just wait until you get to age III . -You sent a lot of settlers into battle around 18:00, have you activated easy military drag ? -After you scouted his foundy, you had a lot of floating resources. Imo you should have gone industrial for light canons. They would have been much more effective vs his falcs+pikes. -Imo you should have gone for some rams with your spare wood and food. -You should change back to production dance when you dont need any mroe travois. -You should have had more settlers on gold to get more light canons as they were his downfall.
Overall you held back and responded pretty well to his choices. Player Rating: 6/10

+You manaed to get your barracks up without losing a single settler despite them being under attack (good work retreating the injured settler wagon). + You did well to get an outpost up near some hunts while distracting him by taking down a war hut. + It was really good that you canceled your falc production when his kanyas got near your foundry. Nice quick thinking.
- Imo the 5 uhlan card could have helped you a lot this game. - At 13 mins, you had way too much wood that you werent using. You could have used some of this for an outpost to protect your undefended settlers. -Your little excursion down the side of the map lost you 45+ xbows. I am surprised you didnt lose the game there and then. -At 27:00 and the next few mins, you lost 7 falcs, imo where you lost the game. 2 were simply unprotected and fell to kanyas and the rest you lost to kanyas as well despite your pikes. Might I suggest you use War Wagons at a stage like this? They have a huge obstruction radius so together with some pikes, they can make your canons unreachable to melee units. They are expensive so you should use them in combination with pikes. -You were at full pop due to the uhlan bug when he had light canons. This is what imo lost you the game because you couldnt train culvs. This isnt something that you can change, but I guess i had to put it under cons . -Before sending for the winged hussars you should have trained some culvs and sent the winged hussars when you had like 1 pop space free. -You never got a second tc despite spare wood all game. -You resigned a lil early, those elmetti could have bought you the time needed to get some culvs and heavy canons possibly, the scores were still equal and despite being behind, you hadnt lost yet.
You did really well to fight your way out of the corner but many times your lost your entire army and hence lost despite having 50% more (!!!) resources than your opponant. Player Rating: 6/10
Highly entertaining game which sadly is incluenced a lot by balance and bugs. The iro does a lot of war hut laming and the German suffers hard from the Uhlan bug. A great watch nontheless. Game rating: 7/10
