arsenal early games

[drumal]

Never, literally never saw advc. arsenal in action..except NR60 games.. so that?s mean it?s not worth it, right?

I have AA card in my deck and wanna so much to use it.. but there is no time to send it, always I need other card to send..

So, have u ever used AA in early game? I mean successfully used

AA is not an early game card but rather a lategame card. The upgrades for inf (especially speed) and the upgrades for artillery can be highly useful but often times you wont have the opportunity to send this card.

But there were times, when AA was a top card: In late vanilla all you saw were 3xinf strategys, since cav was borderline useless. Longbow + strelet + xbow pressure won the RTSL, and Russia played no card in age 1, 700 wood, boyars and then AA for strelets on steroids. Today 5 cosaks is just way to good to not send it and afterwards youd rather have 700 coin for musk/cosak spam. So I?d say it again: AA is a lategame card and you dont want to send it early, the only exception is a 30 min colo fight when you sent all the other cards.

Ots the kind of card you barely ever use, but still want in deck for some civs because u will regret it that one time you dont have it. But generally ye, its one of the later cards to be sent, and most civs dont really need it.

I think its a good card for Russia but not for any other civ.

Russia, Brit really benefit from it. Good for musk/stre cannon and also makes opri even better for siege.

true that but mostly when u hit the time to afford it u prob fortress and (in my case) prefer sending strel/cav up.
So it mostly ends up being send in industrial or even imp age if it''s reached

Ye it depends on the style you play Russia. With Russia I like to fight age 2 even if my opponent ages. Its mainly for the ability to build the arsenal in age 2 rather than the extra ups.
