Re: 20 min Treaty Guide

British cowboom (don't if it is changed in DE or not) is almost always better than manor boom. There are certain exceptions like Deccan where manor boom is more effective in 1v1 and short term. Ports are either very strong or very bad (in short term and 1v1). It basically depends on map. in theory ...

20 min Treaty Guide

Hello Guys: Since Treaty 20 became an option to play in Ranked, i thought it would be interesting to take a deep look into it. 20 min is also a pretty interesting time, because that is usually the time when you switch to mills/estates and get walls etc up. You wont have ressources for all upgrades, ...

Re: Spreadsheets are cool

I made my own sheet for FRENCH cours gather rates. Specifically each resource per second and the card/market bonuses. But what I did was disregard gameplay and just focus solely on gather rates given the different market and card upgrades. I will clean it up this coming week and post it here. But u...

Re: Spreadsheets are cool

So a wee little update, this is the kinda idea that I'm going for. General concept as you will hopefully see, is that I want to see the impact of various starts, cards and timings with Ports. I've not tested any of the figures (I've not built all the table calcs yet) The below are what I would like...

Re: Sending economy Cards or Unit upgrade cards first in TR40

If church card is only useful for overpop with no long term benefits, dont send it. Ports it's fine because of the eco boost. Theres only a few civs that shouldnt send all their eco cards before 40 in order to get AA and a training card out. iirc these civs are brit, ger, and china. Brit wont send ...

Re: Sending economy Cards or Unit upgrade cards first in TR40

As far as I remember, I used to do Fencing school and AA before the timer ends, and then Riding school first thing after the battle starts. Just send eco cards before that, also consider that the church card is an eco card. maybe for some, but the point of the church card before treaty is so you ca...

Re: DE Civ tier team

Is your eco actually stronger than Brit? I guess if you can get all Torps on mines? But the Ironworks card was nerfed to 125% I think, so maybe not anymore. Also you lack the 5v shipment. so i played sweden for 10-15 games in tgs and the only time i didnt have max ress was, when my tc got destroyed...

Re: Guide to Deathmatch

I would get the stonemasons card with allmost any civ as second card, otherwise you will get housed. I also would disagree with brits beeing the weakest, they are quite capable with their strong boom, decent unit shipments.

So i ve had this Idea for a tournament or showmatch. Basically a AOE 3 Pro forms a team with an AOE 2 Pro (So garja + daut vs kaiser + viper or something like that).
