Re: trying to download the patch.

I think I was confused what your issue was so my advice may not have been that helpful. Are you trying to use the legacy launcher to run the Definitive Edition? Because it doesn't use the legacy launcher. You should be able to launch DE directly from Steam.

Re: trying to download the patch.

The only thing I can think to try is to verify the integrity of your files. (assuming you are using Steam)

Re: How to mass Arquebusier cav??

If your opponent was playing as the British, they could have aged up with the mercenary contractor to age 3 to be able to train harquebusiers. The British cav combat cards all affect the unit so with the cards and with the age 5 mercenary contractor it could get around 230 attack. I'm not sure how i...

Re: cards removed from metropolis

The British used to have 3 villagers but the card was removed. There is a patch coming soon that will give the British 3 villagers again. Dutch and Ottoman had their villagers renamed and that caused the card to be removed from decks. Portugal has a new card called Feitorias that gives a resource tr...

Re: Opinion on New Natives

Of the previous natives the Mayan spearman got reworked to a sort of musketeer unit. It's almost like a 4.5 speed janissary with a little less hp. The Seminole sharktooth bowman got reworked to have a rof gimmick to fire faster when closer to a target so if you liked that unit I guess it is stronger...

Re: PUP June 14 2023

Seems they fixed the bug that the Spanish Expeditionary Company consulate army costs 7 pop when queued when it trains 8 pop worth of units. I liked that bug tbh. It was probably there since the start of DE and I wanted to see how long it would fly under the rader. It had a good run.

Re: Ethiopia questions

I think the cannoneers can be useful against a musk + 2 falc push since you can kinda cheese the falcs down with the cannoneers like you can with abus. I've seen routeline do a FF where he sends 700 influence in transition and gathers 300 influence so he can send the 14 cannoneers as the first age 3...

Re: Ideas on Ethiopia

I think desert archers may be able to round out the unit comp but I'm not too sure what I think about them. To me they seem to become obsolete in age 3 which would make it feel bad to use the pop reduction card for them. And that long range animation is very annoying.

IIRC if you use the UI with the map on the right you cannot view the native settlement techs but if you have the map on the left you can. I can't test this right now to make sure though.

Re: A Gentle Introduction of AOE3 Features into AOE2

Also the Japanese monk can dodge with the monastery upgrade.

I agree it would be nice if the next civ has more subtle variations. I'm getting kinda tired having to spend hours just to learn half of what a civ is capable of.

so you're telling me you end up with 3 monasteries in age 2? (1 from age up, 2 built?) what's the point of that? they don't do anything on their own, right, you need abuns/vills to gather from them, so why make more than 1?
