Re: Dutch Strategies, Build Orders, Replays, Notes and Matchups by DutchDude117 (aka "The Exiled Prince"))
Not gonna lie this strategy seems pretty aids to play against. But it sure is a whole lot of fun to play. -Camp in base with 7 banks and colonial militia. -Go for industrial with as few units as possible. -Wall the hell out of your base -Age with towncenter -build towncenter with explorer -3 factori...

Re: Update 14825
Blueberry is basically better than before (less food but works on prior torps). Xbows is a clear buff making for a great colonial. Eco is great overall and having torps on wood (never nerfed) now is useful for xbows. The civ got +100w for -100f which with the new changes is now a net buff. I'm pret...

Re: Aitch, H or Hazza
I really like aitch but hazza is so familiar that I voted hazza and so now I am having an internal crisis and I keep checking this thread every 10 mins. Conclusion: People will get used to which ever name you pick. It will have that same familiar feeling within a few months. So if you like aitch mor...

Re: Pikeman line of sight so small
From this information I can easily see pike getting LOS buff to 15 LOS That doesn't make sense. The only melee unit to compare it to there costs 2.5 times as much and had 1.25 times the los. A halberdier would be interesting to compare it to. It is 12 LOS for halberdiers https://ageofempires.fandom...

Re: Pikeman line of sight so small
I would say this is more of a quality of life buff than a significant balance change.Squamiger wrote:things should be changed if they affect the overall balance of gameplay. pikeman LOS does not. therefore it should not be changed

Re: Pikeman line of sight so small
I think pikes should have a lesser LOS than musk. Does anyone have the stats available, how much LOS do they have for musk pike hussar and skirm?

Re: Pikeman line of sight so small
It's so that you would have to pay attention when marching troops in the darkness. If you wanna see incoming ashi counter-raid, scout ahead with 1 pike or explorer. Why are pikes unique in this? Why don't other units need to scout ahead? You could make that same argument for any units ranged or mel...

Pikeman line of sight so small
Can someone tell me why pike have such low line of sight (12)? it really makes no sense to me. What makes me think of this is how hard it is to siege shrines safely with pikeman . Usually they end up getting gunned down by ashi.
Do you think Dev should buff line of sight on pikes?

Hi I keep seeing people say that Dutch is very strong vs Lakota, and I believe them. But every time I play against a decent Lakota player, I manage to survive the early game, and when I try to leave my base, everything goes wrong.
