Russia - Fine I guess. Boyars nerf is sad. Maybe underrated with stage, water and spice trade builds.
How can water or spice trade be viable now when it was not viable before and now boyars got nerfed?

Re: brits are really the strongest civ lol

It won't be long before the Brits realize they can't beat Russia Is that true on this new patch? With bad boyars? It was quite close even with strong boyars. Brits should win in late age II now due to better units i think. Russia cant play late colonial successfully anymore imo. Have to age. Brits ...

Re: Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition - Update 13.27885

They seem to think that the more stuff you put into a strategy game, the better it gets.

If you make things better, they get better. Thats what they dont understand i think.

It’s because from a historical standpoint Mamelukes would be fighting against the Ports, not for them. It was a history over gameplay move.
It is said that there were 5 Mamelukes fighting for Ports too though. Historically proven.

Re: 3 Vil Shipment harms Strategy diversity

How about we just create an entirely new game That would be too much effort imo. The best thing to do in my opinion would be to create something like a "reduced version" of AOE3 DE. Reduce complexity and several things that break the game and are not necessary for haveing a good and balan...

Re: 3 Vil Shipment harms Strategy diversity

solution to what, exactly? every deck in the game sending the same first card As far as i understood so far, you think the game (AOE3) is too good and you want to solve that problem (aka make it worse).

Re: 3 Vil Shipment harms Strategy diversity

A strategy game doesnt nessecarly get better if you make it more complex. In this case (giving civs too many first shipment options equally strong) imo it obviously would turn into a desaster. Cant call it a strategy anymore if you randomly pick one of your first-shipment-options based on guessing w...

Re: Hausa in 2022 1600+ recorded games

Been playing Hausa for a while. I think its a both african civs are the D grade, probably needs buff. Briefly compare 3 Lifidi Knights (Age II) with 2 Cuirassiers (Age III) (both cost about the same and same popspace): 3 Lifidi Knights: Cost: 270 F, 330 G. Total: 600 res, about 50 percent of which ...

Re: Public Update Preview - February Update

Honestly the only difficulty that I found out playing Spain is that they use a lot of different types of units and sometimes there are a lot of control groups that you might have to deal with it. For example, if I age up with 8 xbow, I don't want to mix them with skirmishers because of the differen...

Re: Public Update Preview - February Update

Well it would slow it down a little bit. You have to consider how gathering times stack, meaning every single of those manors will add delay compared to now. We already had this change over the course of EP balance, and it did a good job iirc. The manors build as fast as they do now. It just means ...

In my opinion if Sir Callen suggests the OP to gain more elo, it also would have been good if he told him how he could do that.

Interestingly, this means that (for generic civ) you can make the linear approximation that the k-th shipment costs k*100 Xp, for k = 5, ..., 9

shimpent no, approx cost:
5, 500
6, 600
7, 700
8, 800
