    Rant on Normal Speed: No spoilers. Vague GOTM8 content.

    Spoiler content deleted. There's no need to use a specific current game setup to make this point It's time to face the fact that normal speed is worthless for a standard map. Small and below is ok if you just want to test out a civ or a starting strategy.

    So..uhh...archer rushes not so great
