2 gibsons with a 10% handicap would be unstoppable

market start felt bad even when you got 200w 100c on ep8 so I doubt it's ever any good Idk since with a coin start you are still having to gather alot of additional wood in order to have both a village and a market. Now its just 5 wood and 25 gold. To elaborate, it felt better leaving the 100c on t...

I think the only option Ger really has is tower rushing, which is still a long way off a guaranteed win ofc but yeah. The ability to contain is also hugely map dependent, like even more so than Japan kinda.

Why would you want a crate start that buffs the FF specifically and nothing else though? (early market is bad for most colonial play)

how about we don't make a completely new civ instead

What DOES need to be buffed for Sweden though, is caroleans. They just need to be able to counter goons again, like they used to and like all other muskets do. Because as it stands, the play vs Sweden is to just go full goon and there's basically nothing they can do, except try to spam jaegers whic...

How is it worse? Same crates ain't that right? Relatively worse because of the crates but besides that, off the top of my head: Brit consulate nerf, village fattening nerf, forbidden train time nerf, territorial summer palace nerf, rattan card nerf, rattan standardisation, industrial upgrade cost i...

Not to start this all over again on a different website but you're forgetting someone... DE China is much worse than RE China

thoughts? @bwinner

IKTF of seeing your main squeeze neutered by balance changes

Calling it now: the removal of bonus damage to ranged light cavalry for Caroleans will be taken back soon.

Why do you think that? It's a great change.

It relies on mercs.

The Sweden nerfs seem a bit excessive, but I'm a big fan of all the Carolean changes, especially the removal of the ranged cav multiplier. This is a great discouragement to the eternal 2-unit composition since you can actually make goons now. I imagine their alternatives might still need some buffs,...

Please not again this "just cancel your queue" argument... Again, it's not an argument against much needed changes to the barebones QS we currently have. I'm just saying that within the constraints of what we currently have, cancelling and requeuing at 7 minutes seems to be better than le...

You even posted in his thread, lol.

Well I don't exactly know how the matchmaking currently works beyond the range expanding every couple of minutes. So I guess there's also the question of hypotheticals like: 1 pr40, 2 pr 30s and 1 pr 25 in queue - what's the most desirable outcome assuming nobody else close in level is going to que...

Of course there should be more options, but why aren't you all just cancelling at 7 minutes then requeuing? The end result is pretty much the same. I've waited 50+ minutes doing this before but it's still better than getting a pr5. I do normally do this, but when streaming sometimes you just can't ...

I found one rec vs Lukas but it's from the last patch so no way to watch it, meh. Anyway I agree with everything Mitoe says and in regards to stage I think it's probably best to respond to it with maximum greed of your own. If you scout multiple TPs early you might be able to go naked 5 banks (700w,...

This sort of radical change would also lead to map extremes where Japan would be unstoppable on e.g Manchuria and trash on e.g Yukon.
