I was thinking about something...definite proof of German OP-ness if you ever needed one more =D
If you want to do an FF and raid in colonial this is what you need to ship with Germans...
700g + 2 uhlans
9 xbows + 2 uhlans
Therefore, you get a raiding force of 4 uhlans and 9 xbows (can also be used to stop a rush) and you do not slow down the fortress time at all. That's TWO shipments to get a colonial raiding force AND do a normal FF.
On the other hand, let's take French because they have age 2 ships for xbows and hussars. For French, to get the same effect as above, you would need to ship 700g, ship 8 xbows, ship 3 hussars. That's three shipments and they are still not as good as German 2 ships! In fact, if you want to do a comparably fast fortress, you can't even get the third shipment. This also means that you will have one shipment less when you get to fortress which also kills =D So anyone that comes and says that German is not OP, they have second tier ships, etc., how do you explain this?!
