    I love the new series, especially the civs comparisons and the maps. That being said, no gold fletching gives you 50 gold, almost enough for an extra archer. Archer bonuses are fine in Feudal and will be needed for skirmishers against their strongest weakness in crossbow and arbalest. Then you have the unique tech inquisition with missionaries, in the hands of a master like MBL or Survivalist (certainly not me) they are better than crossbowmen with equal resources. This is always a crap shoot as conversions have an element of chance. The speed of the missionary gives them the ability to retreat if they do not get the early conversions. The MBL vs Hera battle on T90s channel is a great use of all the Spanish have to offer, including faster firing bombard towers.

    back in the day I used spanish as best as I could. I used their 30% speed building bonus to only use a single villager to build a house so I could get the rest of the villagers to start working immediately (not incredible but it meant a bit more resources early on, everything counts=. Then I used the no gold cost for blacksmith upgrades to get the best cavalry armor upgrades, and started to build Knights in castle age. My best game ever was one where I did that and destroyed the TC of a Mongols player, that congratulated me for beating him so badly (unexpectedly so) and he asked me if I wanted to join their team, a group of friends he used to play with

    Great video as always Hera, I’m really loving this series. Question, do Conquistadors have a place when playing pocket in team games (mainly thinking about Arabia and similar maps). Their Knight play is fine but generic, I always feel like I’m behind other pockets until late game when trade becomes relevant. So leveraging their power unit feels like it is the way to even the field early. I feel like this is a no go in 2v2 and 3v3 because skirms would just kill your whole team, but maybe their is a way to make it work in 4v4 in early castle age and then switch back into knights later? Thanks!

    • @HeraAgeofEmpires2
      @HeraAgeofEmpires2  2 года назад +4

      I think conq play for TG is really good on certain closed maps. On arabia ur flank might suffer but it can still be a good option if u and ur flank stay safe while u bring them out

    • @himalayo
      @himalayo 2 месяца назад

      if you play your cards early on, the spanish can simultaneously defend both players and help with the other player's attack significantly. Conqs are the heavy-lifting unit but they're even more unstoppable if there's all kinds of normal units along with it, and so whatever portion of the map is advanced on, the enemy will pretty much have to forget it. The hardest part in my opinion about the spanish is that you have to develop crazy fast which is part of the reason why it's good at hideout

    You failed to mention Spain's most obvious advantage: Highly mobile cavalry army. You have mobile cannoneers & mobile monks combined that with paladins and hussars. I build a heavy fortified city, and constantly perform surprise attacks and run away. I use the hussars as explorers and also to confuse an enemy as to where the attack is coming from, the paladins as my main attackers for town centers, castles, civilians, conquistadors as distance attack support to kill off individual units, Monks as healers and converters. When things get too chaotic, I run away to some far away and safe place, 30 monks will heal a whole army pretty fast. I also bring replacements which I leave behind on the "safe zone" to prepare for a quick second attack. It's pretty epic I tell you

    • @youcanthandlethetruth5433
      @youcanthandlethetruth5433 2 года назад +2

      Yeah I use them from time to time. Benefits are you dont have to open with a castle so you can do vils on wood and gold instead of stone and you're not using food to make the unit so it's easier to boom behind that in some circumstances. Also you can pump them out from more production buildings. Most of the time conqs are the go to unit but you can mix in CA sometimes. Also when you have early ranges for archer rush or skirms

      @@HeraAgeofEmpires2 I would love to see what changes Hera would make to civs to make them all A or S Tier?
      An eco bonus would not need to be crazy. Some are mild starting with +50 gold, or +150 food. I would like to see Spanish repair at +30%. Since Byzantines have town patrol and town watch, Vikings have wheelbarrow and hand cart. Let the Spanish repair as fast as they build. One could say it is OP because they have tougher villagers in the late game and repairing castles faster would give too much of an advantage. But castles usually go down because one runs out of resources or is completely overwhelmed. A civ with an eco bonus can just add an extra treb to counter. I would also say the cheaper resources to repair for Slavs and Franks are better.
      Would it give too good of a bonus to tower fights? At home probably, in another base, not as much. At home, they can pull in more villagers but in another base, they are limited unless they want to sacrifice all their eco at home. Thoughts?

      @AlHasan Sameh uh I didn't say that. You're making a strawman. If mesos knows what they're doing and Spanish knows what they're doing then its 50-50 depending on those other factors I mentioned. In no way is it inevitable that mesos win because Spanish have power spikes and the tech tree to deal with all.

    My series "The British Empire was NOT The Biggest" proves that the Spanish Empire was the biggest.
    Hypocrites count oceans of sand but not oceans.
    Also, Spaniards were in Australia before the British.
    Also, Spaniards discovered Hawaii first after the natives of course.
    Also, Spaniards saved Europe from Islam (which Russians also did).
    Also, Spaniards were the first people to go around the world.
    Also, the Spanish Empire committed no genocide which is why most Spanish speakers are brown.
