Sioux afternoon star

Post by alistairpeter »

Ink what its called but its the one no one uses that isn't evening. I tried it out just for fun on yucatan (re). It was my 3rd card after 3 will and 4 axe. I trained 5 axe and had total of nine, then started getting mist of the treasures on the map. The first i found had 9 renagados, and i was Abe to convert EVERY one of them ( essentially giving me a huge army) then I actually got the treasure which gave 100% explorer HP. Then I sent the renagados forward and basically destroyed his masks, and did some raiding at the same time, managing to kill 4 more vills. I scouted another big treasure of 520 coin and decided to wait until my axe riders ability reloaded, and then got more units (6 blowguns 2 jaguar?) and the coin fueled me for most of the rest of the game. It was 9 minutes in and my treasure army was enough anti musk/ hi so I just spammed food for axe and if needed dogs. I only tried it once, and obviously the map and treasures are important, but could this be viable on something like re yukon? It seemed to be extremely op and paid off a lot more than 700 rec ( I used fast age up btw)

So you mean it won't work unless they don't attack early on?

Also I did a poor job of explaining a lot of UN between steps. I was going agausnt France who was planning to semi ff I think. I went heavy axe rider BC cdb have rr so hand does better vs them. It was initially going to be all in rush ( and it still ended up being a variation of one) but I threw the star card in for fun. But i had 9 axe on the field relatively quickly and dropped a tp for more XP. The renagados Los scouted the musketeers before they saw me and I killed two of his ten before he even got in combat. I lost like 3 I think, but I had reinforcement bow riders (5) and then quad more axe and sent 3 ar and was just kinda moving around the map. I wish I recorded it BC its difficult to explain and remember every detail. But I continued to pick off cdb while he aged and when he got up he sent 5 dragoons and had 5 skirm pop and it didn't really do anything. My chief tanked so much damage he had like 1250 HP in age 2 and the left over renagados etc were really useful. What's nice about it is you get units AND the recpurces from the treasure. The only thing is to be careful not to accidentally kill Amy guardians BC I lost a couple blowgun chefs BC they died too fast. It is really hard to micro 9 at a time seperately, but its probably easier for the bigger players

Idk if stars were visible in the afternoon in Sioux territories, but the name of the card is 'Morning Star'. I have tried to use it but my apm is low and I often get injuried by/injury/kill several guardians before being able to use all abilities :dry:

The problem is the plz pause part haha. Its so hard to effectively convert all guardians at once.

Probably. But the pay off us awesome. Not only do you get powerful units, but you get huge recourse bundles, or even cdb, XP etc. The chief HP is very usefulfor Sioux too

"pls pause" is outdated. Modern meta calls for "brb bath".
Pay more attention to detail.
