A few comments about your games(at the risk of turning this into our private thread, .. I am hoping others comment)
Game 1) You have a bad spot and are slow and discovered. All these facts mean don't tool rush at all. I have my doubts that you can afford to tool rush with a bad spot in a 3v3 when you are slow. Even if it works, you'll bronze at about 20 and be dead to a counter attack from some one else.
Games 2&3) Sounds to me like you did a nice job of bronzing quickly with a boom economy. Three rax's in the enemy area gives you a tool rush option. If you clicked the bronze upgrade button in the very low 12's you may find attacking with tool units during the transition to be very effective. A look at achievements and you MANDITORY scout should tell you what's going on, and make it clear if/where you want to offensively tower and whether to make clubbers/axers (you need axer upgrade anyhow) or use slingers. Surely, if he is not a CA civ, I'd use axers, since you'll need all the upgrades anyhow. VS a CA civ slingers will have plenty of value later, but you are hitting him when he is still tool, so I am not sure.
A very key point is that you have no forced need to tool him! It is just an option, but if things seem right, I have sometimes postponed bronzing, to flatten him w/ a tool rush.However, just killing a few guys and driving him off his gold/wood during his transition to bronze can really screw up some players.
The guy that towered your rax's now realizes that isn't effective. The summie w/camels wishes he could make cav w/+5 attck vs rax !
A very key point as you saw is the speed of creating new swordsmen which enables you to keep the pressure on !
Over the next couple of weeks I will be fine tuning this strat. and working on speeding my Rome bronze boom... neilkaz ..
