Strategy:Support

This Strategy is for civilizations who have many TEAM Cards but are somewhat retarded in age and need protection of allies (Not from Consulate because they are ont in game civilizations) in skirmish battles besides having many TEAM Cards on there deck they give large amount of Tribute to allies and usually try to claim al the Trade Routes in map for prolonged wealth.

It's not a very well known Strategy but it is usually used by weak economic Civilizations like the Ottoman that need to advance in age to get a faster economy it's like the Boom but this takes more time because they produce slow Settlers (because there free) and you have to advance in age if you want have more Settlers.

Another example of these Civilizations are the Portuguese who have to produce a fishing fleet and have a less number of other units to generate gold from Whales and on the other hand they have very fast producing Mills at the Imperial Age.

The natural enemy of these kind of players is the Rush Strategy.

You should not be confused with the Boom because sometimes the player has to arm an army at the same time of spawning Settlers.

The best Civilization for this Straregy are the Chinese because of there exagerated populations.
