Ethiopia questions
Posted: 03 Feb 2023, 18:05
So, I wanted to learn a new civ and started playing Ethiopia. I am getting a hang of the civ and I feel like it has some glaring weaknesses so I wanted to know how people play around that or if I am missing something.
1. They are the only civ without a ranged infantery in Age 2, leaving you pretty vulnurable to other ranged infantery. Sure you can age with the Sudanese or ship the Canoneers but you can only get so many of them. Is it ever worth building a tower to get the Archers form there? Is there another option?
2. No culvs or similar unit. The big Mortar doesn't do much against artillery. How do you beat Falcs?
3. Shotel warriors feel underwhelming. Do you agree?
4. Sudanese/Somali to 2nd age for early mass and Habescha to 3rd for the TC wagons seem like the valid age-up options to me. Is anything else worth it?
5. Is shipping 3 Abuns early and training them for a boomy opening a thing?
