Default Re: How do I Beat Back Rush Tactics?

Don't worry llama ... I have no compunctions about attacking the game host, and I'm sure there are many others like me too. So you aren't missing out on all the fun.

As far as rushes go, I've rushed in the past. And been rushed more than once too. It's never been in turn 12, it's always around turn 6 or 7. This is on 15-province-per-player maps.

It is necessary to prepare for a rush if you don't want to get creamed, I learned. But preparing to defend against a rush usually means you're capable of your own rush (unless your defense is monkey PD !!!!11!!). And when you see that your closest neighbor has no bless, and has not popped out a god yet ... well, the temptation is there.

Not only that, being prepared for a rush means you aren't going to have problems with expanding into indies, in the normal case where no rush occurs.
