AOE4 forever

What about age-ups and when is it safe to do so? And how do you defend against timing attacks? For eg, as India, while transitioning to age 3, I would be macro-ing towards getting the big mahout/urumi pop out first which costs 1000/750 food leaving me vulnerable to a well timed attack from a civ li...

Thank you for the guide. Since you've mentioned that you mained Dutch to reach rank 32, why not write a 'complete' Dutch matchup guide on the lines of Diarouga's French guide as in https://eso-community.net/viewtopic.php?t=9722 . Of course, that would be a time-consuming project, not to mention tha...

forward base FF maybe, if port goes turtle then just go industrial (haven't watch the rec, but this worked once vs. pirosabi)

Foreword Hi all, I would like to present this guide as a gift to the aoe3 community now that I've decided not to play the game anymore. I hope it serves well for those mid-level players who still wish to improve their skills to the next level. Please leave a reply if you have any questions and I wi...

Great story and see you in Aoe4.

to be honest age 1 doesnt make any sense. Wish AoE3 was more like SC2 where there can be action immediatelly. That's not quite true. Treasures affect your build order a lot, and the order of scouting is also important. Based on that, age 1 is essentially a psychological battle between the two playe...

Not active and will never be again ^^.

Noooooo whyyyyyyy still waiting for your haud guide

Depend of the mu but i am not a big fan of ff with not tp. Church take to much time to pay off in ff situation (as you can't build it in transi plus the low xp you get). I think xbow rush or native rush are a better option but some mu are (was? i haven't play since 3 month) unplayable on no tp map ...

I feel like the majority of games now are like Semi-FF vs. some colonial timing to punish that and then going Age 3. If we define the latter behaviour also as Semi-FF, the definition would inflate too much; but if we don't, then Semi-FF isn't even the dominant strategy in many cases, coz sometimes t...

Aileyugg and absolute eutopia are my friends in China who haven't participated in big tournaments before.

There will be an announcement shortly that explains the extension

hmm, that's alright, but I hope you don't mean the calculation of ranking is also extended?

Just noticed that the sign up deadline on my ESOC is actually before 2021-05-10 instead of May 7th.

Great event, although seeding can let some dishonest behaviour happen. One can avoid peak hours and search 1v1 against one's same-level friend, or even his own smurf. I guess that can't be helped though, as all we have for reference is ranking. Edit: Shouldn't really be a problem after RO16, which d...

Great idea. If this poll goes overwhelmingly one-sided, maybe someone could bring it to the devs?

One question that I have in mind: After dropping the first bank, you need to gather coin if you don't get a big coin treasure. Would selling food be a better option here? You have HD already so I guess that would be economic enough, and plus you don't have to move like 5 vills to the gold mine?

I've never seen him done this before. Does it have something to do with the Spanish cavalry card update today? I was shocked when I saw him build a stable instead of rax in age 2.
