Re: how to beat aztecs with french

it seems like every other day that I read a ridiculous post where some goober noob was totally and helplessly overwhelmed by an equally noob based rush only to think that he needs some incredible strategy against it in order to stand any possible chance to survive. When in fact it is as the above ge...

Re: whos the best teamplayer of all time?

well it would have to be H20, but most people don't know that of course... but I was a close second ;) veni is long hailed the top player if i really correctly, but the one or two games I played against him I wasn't blown away. no offense, it could have just been that I was that good.

Re: Musketeer Attack Vs HP

this post surprised me. I thought it was ALWAYS better to send HP in any situation. But I guess a really good situation no one brought up is when you have already gotten a lot of ur muskets into fights and down HP. seining HP will "heal them" sort of for those 10 points they gain

Re: Using hills?

AOE2 had a terrain bonus as most of the people here may know. Kind of stupid that it does not hold true in AOE3 as it would make for some very interesting strategic situations, but it is what it is. Look forward to that in aoe4

Re: Guys i found the "End-All" unit

correct me if I'm wrong but i think they are faster than skirms and basically able to one shot them. so i don't think skirms would be a foolproof counter. also, as I said how deadly would they be to a sioux player with nothing but a BR mass, sometimes they don't even build a WH by the time you could...

Unit combos are a different story, this topic is about one-man-army! Although I have to admit that I'm strongly convinced towards Fusilier + Light Cannon as the ultimate 2-unit-type composition. fusilier are basically a 12 range skirm, not sure why you would ever make those. their attack bonus vs r...

Re: Hussar vs Lancer

the question has been asked time and time again, huss vs. lancers for spain...the only answer is : tis situational, but I would argue that culverin, skirm, rod is a better counter everything army than lancers and probably much more pop/cost effective

Re: Guys i found the "End-All" unit

don't they cost an insane amount of food and wood for what they are? so even if you could make this work in TR, which is the only near possible viable use of it imho, it would fail, because you're whole economic macro as india in TR doesnt support this.

Awesome! This is so exiting! I saw you also had a Savannah map so I tried yours and it's so much full of stuff, it's awesome! But I saw that it had no loading screen so I fixed that by adding the loading bar codes. I also tweaked the look of the map and added zebras and fitting treasures with lions...
