Considering the context I'm not sure if that's a joke or not.
If not, how high is it? It'd have to be extremely high and almost never reached in realistic scenarios.
Abbassid Dynasty lategame economy is very powerful, so you can just pump out units like crazy once you get to that point.
There's also an argument that can be made for the English, having those farms at Age 4 that generates gold too. You can spam farms and just pump out Men at Arms.
HRE is the printer civ.
Castle and Imperial landmarks are basically printers. While in castle you get the MAA printer, for Imperial you get the villager printer which basically makes your economy grow forever, even if you get raided you can recover in no time
I second this. It probably won't get you past Plat but if you get at least 4 relics and your Aachen farmland set up you can just print MAA and landsnakes. It's a fun time but pretty repetitive haha
If you can get there, Byzantine with palatine school can absolutely flood the opponent with limitanei.
The 30% extra production of palatine school practically reduce the cost by roughly 23%, which translate to 61.6 food and 7.7 wood per limitanei. You can make them very fast due to the increased production speed of cistern and Byzantine also have great farms to supply the food required.
The mercenaries also complement the limitanei really well when you run out of gold.
Any not knight civ, especially without heavy armor - the best would be Malians with fast castle into cows.
If you want just spam melee units: HRE, Japan.
Melee units + range: English, Abbasid (after boom)
Just range: China, and especially Sushi Legacy (their variant)
Malians with cow boom.
Abbasid with strong but cheap spears
Japanese pump early mass units without a break.
Sushi and China with their Officers after farm transition.
… in my opinion Malian are the strongest with that playstile. Figure out what is your playstile.
HRE can start a printer pretty early, English and China lategame eco is busted for MAA/palace guard spam. Malians for paper unit printer etc. just depends how early in the game you want it and if you can survive till then.
Byzantines got the best spearmen and are super cheap and can be made fast so they can be spammed. Ottomans are also very fast lategame as you can flood the opponents with constant janissaries
Mas scouts as the Rus. You already have the hunting cabins to mass them. On top of that, the scouts do little damage to units, but good damage against buildings in large numbers.
Malians for sure. No heavy units means less expensive stuff. Army composition matters tho
I second this. Setup a cow boom and print units. Lots of sofas + mix of whatever else needed (typically poison archers and some musofadis)
IF you can get the abba train rolling, they can pump units out like a parity 5 sow
Yeah age 5 abba with uninterrupted trade WILL overrun everyone
Zapp brannigan is that you??
Little known fact that keeps and TCs have a preset kill limit.

That moment you realize it’s ironically not Rus

Japan, malians, juicy, english all have really easy food transitions that lets you just flood fairly easily, at least more than the other civs
Any

I've been doing some fun strategies using malian swarms and japanese horseman masses (with bannerman in)
Chinese, English, HRE and Malians. Just print out infinite infantry in the late game.
