Now, i played a no rush game with russia. I always seem to loose to russia with my ports in no rush, so i try them out. Im level 35 with russia, and its not my NR civ, so i throw together a quick NR deck and play a level 55 dutch who is a master sarge. I am 45% win percent now, just to give you some context, he is 50%. So the game goes on BLA BLA BLA- at 40 minutes, when treaty time ends i am around 2,000 score he is around 1,800. I really have no strat, but i send like 50 strelets, 5 horseguns and some ops around the back. He builds skirms, cannons and hussars to countter my strelets and halbs to counter my ops, which work well. But to be perfectly honest i just kept massing a unit that counter what he builds (alternating skirms and halbs)and i send mortars to his walls which he'll quickly take down before i get his walls. I try microing my ops faster than his halbs. About 10 minutes of little progress i look at the score and im 2,100 and hes 1,400 somehow! It makes no sence how we are both sending imperial units at eachother, taking turns countering eachother and my econ hold up and his doesnt. So finally i get 5 ops in and get 2 houses down and from there its all over. Like in all honesty, i dont think i could have spend more resources than i was making if i tried! I mean i am sumarizing the battle here, but i would say that neither one of us countered any better than the other, and i certainly was not microing anything but ops.
When i play vs russia in nr i always end up with 7 forts surrounding my bases, my super (port) mortars knocking them down and organs melting his infantry, but i still somehow run out of resources faster than he does! and i would not say i am bad with ports at all in no rush. (i used to be 57% win percent, but i took like a 4 month break and im sucking it up now)
