where the hell is babylon?
What about 'em?
If you think there are so great for early rushes, maybe you could explain why?

I don't really think Germany has any special advantage with this kind of thing, other than being able to afford more units.
Really? They can bring barbarians to their side...I've early rushed with them many times and experienced a lot of success. You can amass a giant army really quickly right off the bat.
Yup. Plus you can cherry pick which barbarian unit you'd like to acquire by killing the unit spawned in the barbarian camp over & over until you get a unit type you want.
As Assyria, 3-5 Composites and a Siege Tower or two is really all you need, just make sure to get to Mathematics and Construction and have your army ready before NC.
Yes, you have to kill the camp to get the unit. But which unit you get is determined by the last unit to occupy the camp. So you can select which unit you get by killing the camp unit over & over with archers until you get a unit you want (I usually shoot for archers or axemen) and *then* you occupy the camp.Please refresh me really quick...don't you have to kill the camp itself in order to obtain the unit inside? Or does it include any wandering barbarian that you kill?
