so he attakced at what, 8, 9 minutes?
youd probly have all 4 banks up, and defintiely a barracks, probly coulda had a stable too but that isnt much help.
this happened to me once while i was ffing as russian, i ffed to kalmucks, and had 2 BH's, my kalmucks owned his lancers and my strelets did fine against his halberds.
so if you were to copy that
you could...
A) ship UC to waardgelders(stradiots) who own lancers (but hed probly runt hema way into halberds, so thats too risky)
B) FF to ruyters, who halbs cant catch, counter falcs, and counter lancers.
C) skirm+pike it out, 10-15 pikes can own lancers and than tis just skirms on halbs, of course that woudl need a secodn barracks. sooooooo, buidl two barracks if your booming against a spainard, youll need both the pikes and skirms.
