I think many people got trouble with french if they are russian
so i though of this :
French will propberly go Hussar because in small groups hussar > russian musk. So dont make musk. We are going to spam cossack, cossack are easier to mass than hussar and they also costs 1 pop.
after he saw your cossacks he will proberly make barracks and start making muskets, if you see he his barrack you start making strelets. Push him sometimes and raid. If you got enough to age up, use either fast age up or 17 strelets, now spam some more strelets upgrade ur musk and send in surov reforms. you should've around 70 musk than atk him and it is a GG

it is a little plain, that is because i play on feeling and not on a strat, so this is what i basically do

feel free to comment

Nice strat!! Sending the 4 and 5 Cossacks as your first cards after aging up should be very useful then send Strelets tu harras his villagers while the Cossacks take care of the Hussars, with this you should win the game in 17 minutes  :P
