Rhye’s and Fall of the Netherlands<\/h1>\n

UHV<\/h1>\n

The Netherlands’ unique historic victory conditions are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Have the most extended map of the world in 1600 AD<\/li>\n
  2. Be the first to found a city in Australia<\/li>\n
  3. Secure or get by trade 7 spices resources by 1775 AD<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Unique Power<\/h1>\n

    The Dyke is a very powerful building for any coastal city. While in normal games it makes the Dutch overly powerful on Archipelago maps, in Rhye’s and Fall Netherlands it’s not very useful, because you’ll only get to build dykes after industrialization. Until then you will already have won.<\/p>\n

    Unique Unit – East Indiaman<\/h2>\n

    \"Rhye's<\/p>\n

    As useful as the Dyke for making Amsterdam a production powerhouse (later), as useless is the East Indiaman. Yes, of course it’s nice to ship some more units off to your colonies on one ship (this one comes with higher capacity) – but you’d rather need some stronger units to resist Germany<\/a> or France<\/a>, which always envy your little European kingdom.<\/p>\n

    Dutch Strategy<\/h1>\n

    Here’s as quick summary:<\/p>\n
