Sad - I thought I would get an honourable shut-out given my otto laming.

Strong civ, but I think there is an otto PR ceiling of about 30-31 where decent players don't have too much issues in beating your usual jan / abus / TP / sea, etc.

Hilarious joke This whole saga defines the SirMusket circle of life. 1) plays a game 2) begs for PR 3) Threatens and Flames 4) Loses 5) Says he was joking / trolling 6) demands to play a "serious" game / bo5 where he won't troll and will totally beat you 3-0 7) plays a game 8) return to s...

My apologies - I will be on the ball more from now on.

On a side note, why is he always doing it in his car?

Gibson will win 5-0 and musket will claim he wasn't even trying / gibsons civs were OP.

I read an article saying Age of Empires 4 was on a leaked agenda list for E3 presentations

Can't seem to find it now but 100% saw it there.

teammates who quit at 6 minutes after losing 2 vills to raid

Used to lose a lot to him, have been okay the past ~3 years.

Fortunately, he hasn't learned how to make vills yet so as long as you last until 11-12 minutes you should be OK.

He's also given up on fast revolution which, I think, is still a pretty strong strategy.

Grunt was by far the most dominant player in game history. H2O then had a solid streak as well as NaturePhoenix.

Big drop off for fourth place after those 4. Samwise comes close but not close enough imo.

Of course it was easy, I famously beat sirmusket in a BO3 despite being drunk I famously beat sir_misket in a game where he was blatantly map hacking. The guy is average at best WITH cheats - inflates his PR. Without cheats, he is probably ~PR 25 which is pretty depressing given how much time he si...

I think it has something to do with the fact that "bad pathing" is not something people like to plan their game around. It feels like a "bug", and thus losing because of it makes people angry. It's also especially bad because lag, which is a very unfortunate circumstance, makes ...

Having an infinite spahi card in industrial (similar to urumi) is a very old suggestion (it dates back to 2008 probably). It makes sense design wise but one should think first if it is really necessary. What makes a change "really necessary"? I think Otto have a slight mid-late game defic...

well played.

Florida game crazy, you definitely earned the win.

Good luck in next round!

I haven't really read this thread super closely (just skimmed it, really), but I don't really think walls/water should be a big balance concern at the moment. The fact of the matter is that when it works it is only because the opposing player doesn't understand how best to deal with it. That isn't ...

I will veto 3) ESOC Pampas Sierras

Hi @EAGLEMUT

Can we please do 2000GMT Friday evening?

u332 _noob, I am all for different and new strategies. "while most games still are full of battles" > isnt the case in such games, and wont be if many are going to play like that. Tbh idk if not achieving 4th age often is an issue. First of all, you got 25 cards, so you cant even have man...

Diarouga, if anything, that argument of your game vs kynesie just shows walls (at least with current stats/costs) are completely changing the game in a way they are not supposed to, especially with some people abusing it as much as possible ^^ I havent seen the game or the possible mistakes you did...

Somppu going Town Dance at the critical moment was honestly one of the best plays I've seen on TAD in a many, many years.

Well played both.

Unfortunately my work schedule can be a bit tight so Monday - Friday is simply not possible.

I am flexible for Saturday / Sunday Australia time (Friday evening through to Sunday morning GMT).

Can I propose 2000 GMT Friday evening, the 18th? Or the same time on the 19th?

you can play 3v3 for sure. But I dont think you can start in Nomad mode since it's a scenario, not a custom map. But I could experiment with having everyone start in the middle rather than on the edges. I chose the edges because it makes the journey to find your base much longer, which theoreticall...

Nice!!!

Can this be enabled for 3v3?

Maybe nomad in a fast boat, starting in the middle?

Yes. But I can also see it going the other way, with casters focusing on the big picture rather than trying to follow every little raid; and when people actually try to organize and think ahead of a strategy for 3v3, maybe we will see some cool things that we've never seen before (especially on a w...

What does this even mean?

From a casting perspective, 3v3s are a lot of fun to watch.
