Ottomans on maps with no TP?

[RadioHeadSGJ]

I’ve started playing again for the first time in a couple months and I’m picking up my main civ again, the Ottomans. I was looking on AoE3 heaven for guides and every strat for rush and FF seems to say to build a trading post on the trade routes for faster shipments. I tried to follow an FF build order but i just couldn’t get my shipments in on time because the map i was playing had no trade route.

How do you guys play Ottoman on maps without trade routes?

Ottomans on non-TP map

Do you guys have any good Ottoman build order to use on non-water and non-TP maps in 1vs1 Supremacy? I usually chop 25 wood in the beginning of the game to build: 1 house (100 wood) Mosque (150 wood) 2 Mosque upgrades: Millet System + Koprulu Viziers (175 wood) Later on I’m doing standard stuff like Jan Age II rush, FF or Sublime Porte + Nizam Fusilier build. But still all of them feels weaker than the same build with a TP. Do you have any other BOs?
