Re: Eco theory vs musk attack card

Disregarding the fact brits don't get eco theory, the instant buff + the fact that musk attack decreases the amount of shots to kill opposing musks means you get more if a boost than your maths implies. Also you can't calculate stuff in this way due to pathing ect.

Re: Cheating?

Hi, I'm new to the game and forum and something weird just happened to me. It was a 3v3 30 min treaty match and I thought my team would win the match because we were developing faster than the other. But then some weird things happened. I was advancing my troops early and saw the enemies outposts a...

shift clicking the jaegers and not microing the iron troops is obviously not a fair test.

Re: Asian merc viability

I think china early tp into 2v 700g 700w iron troop card ff is actually viable due to a bug where repentant iron troops don't have a negative multiplier against cav so they literally beat everything. Pretty sure Jat lancers aren't viable. Yojimbo are very good however if you are playing as japs in ...

Re: Asian merc viability

Greetings comrades, I come to you with a simple question today: Are the unique mercs available to each Asian civ through the monastery card actually usable? I know it is out of the question for a normal supremacy game, but let's say I get bored in some drawn out team game or comp stomp. Would I rea...

Re: Germantown Farmers card?

The card increases SW gather rate by 35% yes, but it takes SW's gather rate as a base rate, so its smth like 2*1.35= 2.7 -> 170% thats not how math works o.O 1 sw = 2vill 1sw * 1,35 = 2vill * 1,35 1,35 sw = 2,7 vill you are only gathering 170% more then a standard vill, but you must compare with a ...
