Re: A Basic Guide to Strategy

good guide, much easier to apply in the past when i had a decent understanding of what every civ could do. maybe if we stop getting DLCs DE can also have a well developed, deep strategic meta again, after a year or two of experimentation

Re: Infos about Malta?

Paragraphs. But ye some Malta bonuses are a bit over the top. I don't mind the xbow progression tho. Finally a euro civs has a proper ranged inf to oppose to Yumi, Jungle Bowmen, Gurka, Forest prowlers, etc. i feel like that deficit is more than compensated for by having 2 falc/2 heavies shipments,...

Re: Haudenosaunee Guide

I guess in theory you could ship 5 vills and then train 10 healers on the plaza as a second way to train an economic unit alongside your TC. I wonder if thats ever worth it, probably not though. Haud is bad at turtling and booming in general, you really need to set the pace of the game with aggressi...

Re: is the 95 unit limit on unit selection the reason that artillery is so dominant now?

Interesting points. The other thing I wanted to bring up is that the one direct buff to artillery was making culvs do slightly more damage to infantry and buildings. It's minuscule but I feel like lately I've seen players slow push with culvs leftover from fights, killing a unit here and there or ve...

Does anyone else feel like artillery is just extremely powerful in DE these days compared to EP or even earlier DE? It's not like artillery has been buffed at all, but is it maybe the fact that you can select 95 units now --> you can dragbox your whole army to cover artillery from virtually any posi...

Re: Scenarios you want to play on DE?

the only correct answer is arena. time to micro, cards, and wollo are already available on DE btw. arena is the only one of the more popular scenarios that still hasn't been ported over; the reason is, according to numerous sources, that many parts of that scenario were scripted outside of the origi...

Re: Some new build order with india?

The only thing that's different really is that you can't do the GFA FF anymore quite the same. Everything else still pretty much applies. Forward or in-base Agra is usually the big decision to make early on. Then you're either rushing, containing, going for an age 2 timing, or doing some kind of sep...

i created a discord to track down all the people who might know something about these scenarios and how to make them work in DE: https://discord.gg/thtuKe7H9h still waiting on an arena scenario for DE. apparently its very difficult because the triggers were scripted outside of the RE game, so you ca...

Re: Rough ELO > legacy PR conversion?

Greatscythe broke 1600 the other day. I think there's been an overall ELO shift, maybe as top players have left the game and the ELO inflation has tumbled down the ladder. I think we need to run the equations again. Get the ESOC scientists working on this

Re: Tier lists

The biggest nerfs have been to dervishes and gascenya, to bring them down to normal unit stats. They were just completely busted when they were first released, so people made low eco all-in age 2 rush strats to capitalize on how strong these units were. Now that they are properly tuned down, you hav...

Re: Tier lists

Ethiopia - Timings got nerfed hard, unit scaling sucks, can barely produce from 2 buildings before 15 minutes. Can't do anything against mid-game artillery massses. Livestock mechanic is decoration for most of the game. Struggles for food income with all vills on food and can't even ship 4v anymore...
