Re: Age III: DE Beta sessions starting in early February

It's a little sad, this will probably be the last tournament of AOE3 ever.

Re: 150 Resources Units

[mention]u10481[/mention] brought it less subtle, but I think it's important to realise that every civ should have unique strengths and weaknesses to play around. For example, a cossack isn't as good as a uhlan when it comes to pure stats and they have the same train time. However, a cossack is ver...

Re: spain china

I believe Blackstar did (and I tried this too with great success) all in ff vs China. That is, be in fortress at 7:05 with most forward tower, ship 8 pike and make musk in transition, age with 4 huss. This is the standard build but if china play properly it doesn't work. You have no real window bec...

Re: spain china

Lancer sux, this unit is worth than vet hussard. China just need to spam there cav + redcoat and rect your lancer rodo compo. And more the game is longest more this mu looks unplayable. Probably an other mu where the best way is ff allonie and light a candle. I believe Blackstar did (and I tried th...

Re: Aztec questions

1) Fast age up is always better, even when you want to semi. You just get more eco which is what matters. 2) Against Otto, Sioux and Iro you have to go fast age up and fight in colo. Aging is just not an option. 3) I tried to semi FF against China but from my experience, it only works when your rus...

How would you feel about 30 card decks?

I think it’s pretty annoying to lock yourself in (or out) of some strategies at 1:30 in the game before you’ve had time to scout anything your opponent is doing. Also, I think there are some cards which may be marginally useful, but are just not as important as the 700w, 5v, etc. stuff that HAS to g...

What is better in lag, melee units or ranged units?

I see people raging on all sides; some rage when the opponent makes melee units in lag because they can't kite, but on the other hand others rage when they themselves make melee units, because they sometimes freeze in lag. So what do you think?

Re: Announcing the $3000 ESOC Winter Championship 2020!

I know Nagayumi and Boneng is a bit active now, can someone ask them if they are intrested to join? They didn't want to play in the previous ESOC tourneys and one of the reasons was that they didn't like the EP, too far from the RE. So there's no way they'll play on EP 7. They both seem to like you...

Should you target weaker or stronger units first?

I just saw this interesting AOE2 video where they wanted to answer the questio: should you target stronger or weaker units first? In 3/4 of their examples, they found that it was better to target the weaker units (the 4th one was concocted to fail anyway). What do you guys think for various scenario...

Re: How to deal with pure bow rider spam as fr.

If he isn't aging you should still probably age yourself after getting 15-20 musks. You can maybe do the trick where you keep queeing and cancelling 8 xbows shipment every 20 seconds. Of course call minutemen when he comes, and probably use CDB to tank as well if you think you need.
