Notes about the game:
I knew my opponent was much better, so right off the bat I didn't expect myself to win. I forgot to seed the dark age farm, also sent 1 too many on wood by mistake, so some eco imbalance was happening in early feudal. Still the drush kept my opponent fully open and I managed to cause some idle time and snipe 2 villagers with my scouts later. Didn't expect it but I was actually ahead by 2 villagers and being 40% faster to castle age. Unfortunately my terrible decisions and taking bad engagements lost me the game in castle age, but was an interesting game nonetheless.
