The following is strategy I have created, originally using it in Treaty games, but have decided that with a few tweaks, it could be viable in Rush games also. Let it be known however, that I do not generally play 1v1s. Think of it logically. Why would anyone use their limitless skill to crush 1 measly person, when they can crush 4? But if your one of those “giving” people we hear about, you’re also making 3 other people’s day, by contributing to one of their rare wins.

I would like it if people ( selfish people Thanks for reading. EDIT: After having the pleasure of playing HG's JamesLock and DarthMalak, I got my hands on a record of my strat. Note that I did not yet have the 1000 food card, and so my time was delayed until 10:30, but I did send a fort for defence instead.
