Default Re: In an old west gun fight,.....(Not OT)

As with much of this game, its not so much absolute answers as personal preferences on tactics. Staying flexible might be one of the most important "rule" of all.

I have a tendency to play nations that can gain scouting information very quickly. Of course I rush scouts to my borders. Then I follow those with another batch of scouts to relief those while they go deeper. To the other side of my neighbors borders. I want to know who HIS enemies are, and is he at war with them. If he is pushing all his armies in a direction away from me then.... well... its nice to know when deciding who to attack.
