Re: Medicine

When you ask why is not good, they just bring the old and good argument: " There is alot better other cards/strategies to use instead" I think most players have tested the cards a long time ago and are simply not interested in discussing everything in detail anymore. A few people in this ...

Re: Handicap games

I'm ready to play any top dawg with a 50% handicap (I am MS) I've played a 1v2 with a 30% boost vs two really good players on the settler map (no resources map) once, and they couldn't compete with my eco. +5 % is fair if the other player is a bit better, +10% is already too much imo, and everythin...

Re: Handicap games

I've only played a few 1v2 so far. If your opponents don't play together and make strategical mistakes, then you have a good chance of winning with a good unit composition. Most <PR20 don't have any chance against a decent skirm/goon micro. A huss semi ff or ff + fortress timing is probably the best...

Re: How do i micro? Me french (pr 18) vs dutch (pr 22)

You should have won this game, but somehow you managed to lose it ;)
Your unit positioning is really bad, if you change this then you probably stomp any Lt. Maybe play a few games TimetoMicro Scenario to improve this. (https://eso-community.net/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=14812)

Re: smurfs are ruining the game

*edited, too much personal opinion

Maybe the smurfing isn't the main problem, there is just a general toxicity in gaming. I can remember at least a few games too, when a conscript stomped me and flamed me (at the Serg rank). This is really no fun, if you try to rank up and are new to the game.

Re: How to put the draugur ai in the files?

If it is boring to play against, then either not enough handicap, or not enough bots yes, but you reach a breaking point quickly (too much spam), if you don't want to single pillar wall the whole map, like aklak did in his 1v7 100% handicap game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0wfyzuGndY If you e...

Re: How to put the draugur ai in the files?

It upgrades units, builds walls, has a counter system, but it makes the game more nr-like. Once you've reached ~Lt rank it's just boring to play against i think. Unit spam like Nilla bots, but you have time to ff/FI usually. You can only lose if you don't wall or are outnumbered. When you reach the ...

Re: ALT + D

Alt + D isn't a cheat, it's something devs probably forgot to fix, maybe it had some purpose in testing. You can use it but doesn't make the game better to me. I think it's sometimes acceptable on LOST maps (eg. if sb of the other team kills you before building a tc). If you use it on other maps i s...

Perhaps give him an introduction to a MU before you start playing. Civ bonuses (quite minimal compared to AoE2, => https://ageofempires.fandom.com/wiki/Civilizations_(Age_of_Empires_III) ), Water, Tradeposts, Food/Wood/Coin start.

To install the AI, simply copy the three files 'aiDraugurHeader.xs', 'aiDraugurMain.xs' and 'aiLoaderStandard.xs' into the game folder '..\Microsoft Games\Age of Empires III\AI3'.

Re: Mercenaries are not good right?

Can mercs be useful for Germany in treaty? They get quite substantial upgrade cards and lack unit types such as musks. Highlanders could make up for that?!

Re: smurfs are ruining the game

If you don't play a lot of rated games then you could be called a smurf too. Then you end up with a high win rate and nobody wants to play with you. Nobody wants to play against a conscript either, except PR 10 or people that don't care about rank. So you have to win a few games to gain some PR with...

Re: Mercenaries are not good right?

Some are really good, if they are available on the map, but you have to build a saloon first. Then there are a few game changing shipments (the problem is that you can't spend your resources immediately and have to wait). In general you should only build them for fun.

Change your deck to something like this. For 2v2 you can use a 1v1 deck in general and modify it slightly (for 3v3 you need a different deck) https://i.imgur.com/PG2jsQj.png Greedier version, probably better for your playstyle.
