VERY IMPORTANT FOR THE FUTURE: the first mission of the chinese campaing is bugged, when you will restart the mission DO NOT SKIP the intro otherwise you will screw the triggers and you will start in a age you would not supposed to be, drastically increasing the overall difficulty.
@@stratise campaign is aight, multiplayer is aids when people play at slow settings which is retarded but apart from campaign and playing with friends its a bad game true
With flaming blades god power and bunch of throwing axemen, you kill Nidhog quite easily (sort of). You can heal them with walkiries behind or make a castle or two with them too.
- Can't believe how difficult this is in Titan difficulty. 1 giant army dies then within 2 minutes another one comes. - I think the ones bringing 25 are the ones who you just sent back halfway from their previous trip because they weren't carrying any Gold.
I've managed to defend from the beginning using arrow boats and the TC directly to the left of starting position. Boats have excellent damage and kill stuff quickly, just add towers and walls to funnel waves close to water. Lots of funky walls to make obstacles/maze around the area helps. The difficulty here is just on a bizarre level xD (that strategy idea came from a video on yt I saw, and it worked somehow!)
it's quite expensive and weak, in fact if the tower doesn't have it, it will start shooting at another target, keeping up the superior DPS of arrows :D
Here's a Pro tip:however controls those 3 piles of gold win the game,since the ai doesn't have a steady income of gold so he will use his second TC to trade with the market,destroy it by sneaking down some rams down the map and it's gg
I hope he realised how connected this campaign is with the main story :) At the end of golden gift they said "thats another tale for another time" i hope he realised its for main mission :))
not quite, but from where they are tasked to it aka the distance they travel to reach the market. The 0 gold oxen, were tasked to the market from right next to it.
if you're trying to lure enemy troops to a spot you should try not walling yourself in completely, but opening up a tiny spot where the enemy can "enter" (though you could make it a tiny maze) and the ai will send troops through there instead of attacking your walls somewhere.
Well played viper. No restarts. Your persistence is great. The endless wave after wave was too frustrating for me. And i gave up several times to come back later and retry. What I've noticed in your style is that you dont take losses too seriously and quickly move on. Ur buildings kept getting destroyed and your dwarves were slaughtered several times but u kept hanging on. I guess thats whats required for these games. I get so annoyed when i take too many losses that it discourages me to play on and i rage quit. Still havent finished the chinese campaign on titan difficulty coz i cant beat the first scenario. Looking forward to seeing how you tackle it.
Please remember that counterunits and mythic units are VERY important. At some point enemy were using mostly cavarly units (that can "easily" be countered with infantry, NOT trowing axeman) and mythic units takes low dmg from non-hero units so they survive much longer And Valkiries can heal your troops, keeping they alive during and after fights so no need to rebuild the entire army after every fight Hope you find this interesting and keep it on mind for the future
In my opinion you underestimate the strength of walkiries: cost only food, fast, strong and heal all (making lot of spare). In any case, waste norse god power won by fight only (kills by humans only), is not good at all.
If you use all of your fire weapons godly power at the same time you keep the buff from all of them but the last one, making it easier, I rushed to the temples for them and was easier
I was wondering the whole time from like the 5 minute mark, why no Valkyries - as far as I remember, they heal units, and have pretty good mobility against the raiders
I think you avercomplicated this final mission ironically by over exploring and by build the extra town center. That mission is relatively easy once you consolidate your base and build you army already.
I actually went looking online to see how people did this because I have restarted twice after like 40 minutes when the armies are coming in 2 minute intervals and I ran out of gold T.T
I am unreasonably upset at him wainting an hour to build a tower to upgrade the defensive building accuracy in there, considering how hard he relies on hill forts.
I never go into comments normally, but congrats Viper, if I could rate youtube videos this is as good as it gets. These videos could easily have 1m views per video and everyone would love them, but views per video does not correlate with quality so just hope ya know they are top. AoM is a really good game. Love the challenging parts of the video too.
Wait, why does Freyja want the golden boar again? Seems has such a surplus that she offered you unlimited ones when you worshipped her last episode. Like giving snow cones to eskimos.
Great job! Still u need here trowing axeman, since 75% of the enemy has INFANTRY. Ulfsarks for the HORSE cause they are OP. And u still do calvary, huskarls and Hersier wich are trash here... Even worse u do hillfort upgrades, wich would have been better if u do throwing axeman upgrade or blacksmith upgrade.
Those Vipers (Jormund Elver) in the water saved Viper's ass in so many fights. They have an insane 42 pierce attack that they can decimate the army like nothing.
Wow, victiry by the great jebait. I wonder, can you replay this with zero jebaits? It's totally possible, and a ppleb like me has done that many times. No jebait no bug exploits.
Nope,tested it many MANY times it's practically impossible unless you somehow destroy the ennemi trade route and control the three piles and micro manage your base and the defense in the short period of peace u get in the begining,it's posible but insanely difficult if you ask me
the ones with 11 gold had gold from their trip to viper's north tc relative to his market in the north. when they have 23(?) they're the distance on the map from the east tc to his north market because they came from that market. when they reach both the east tc and his south market once it re evaluates the trade properly to the 78(?) gold that viper was expecting them to have
You seemed surprised that the 10 g/trip carts were making you a lot of money. These are estimates. - 33 carts ~ 32 second round trip ~ 10 gold per trip On average you're getting 10 gold/sec. Yes, that is a lot of population space, but that isn't a slow income by any means.
Imma say this Biper. The China campaign is visibly and narratively worse than any of the other ones by a wide margin. Maps are simple, like they were put together by a teenager using map editor for the first time and the story is completely flat.
after watching ur vids i NEED to play myself the campaign with only making jarls WHY DO YOU REFUSE TO MAKE JARLS THATS LITERALLY THE BEST UNIT U SERIOUSLY FIGHTING HERSIR AGAINST HUMANS IM MAD AT MYSELF LMAO
I would suggest you to skip the china's campaign, it's bugged and broken, it's not on the level of the others, i would suggest you instead the aoe3 campaigns

Hush, we wanna watch viper struggle against all odds. He somehow pulls through eventually.
It's really disappointing how buggy the Chinese campaign is.
@@samiamrg7 is it not fixed yet
@@drakekingblackheart5481 It wasn't last time I played earlier this year.
An hour and a half mission without a single restart. Did not see that coming
"The trolls are trolling me from the shore" lmfao
17:51 XDDDDD
I can't believe there are no restarts
1:26:35 Soldier playing with sword. BAM! DEAD!
This makes my day! =D
Look how far the Viper has come! Building Hillforts, walling up and creating choke points.
After 40 minutes, “what is my mission?” :D
Somehow I started imagining the skalds of the old performing the northern sagas: "And then the heroes fell the Nidhogg and cried "POGGERS!"
Hero Death Count -
Eitri - 1+18 = 19
Brokk - 7 + 16 = 23
(the +n depicts deaths in the current episode)
just for anyone to know... Flaming weapons STACK.
I absolutely love how the dwarven heroes scream like monkeys when they get hit, and viper goes... ''w- what is that sound? o. O '' like in 24:10
aoe 3 campain would be pretty nice as well :)
I will never give up hope for Galactic Battlegrounds.
AoE 3 should never exist (like command and conquer 4)

I think you meant choke points
the last tower upgrade you get (the barrel one) is most important one to "rush" when you have to defend T_T
it's quite expensive and weak, in fact if the tower doesn't have it, it will start shooting at another target, keeping up the superior DPS of arrows :D
Wow i like alluring part the most. It's smart way to delay their rush. Impressed

At the end of golden gift they said "thats another tale for another time" i hope he realised its for main mission :))
I think those about 20 gold caravans is because it is their first trip in that route, so they are calculating from the original market probably
not quite, but from where they are tasked to it aka the distance they travel to reach the market. The 0 gold oxen, were tasked to the market from right next to it.

I did in few tries by looking up the campaign in the editor,wanna know how I did it??it's quite ez
this was freakin intense!
A golden boar? Seems like something mbl would try to lame...
Please remember that counterunits and mythic units are VERY important. At some point enemy were using mostly cavarly units (that can "easily" be countered with infantry, NOT trowing axeman) and mythic units takes low dmg from non-hero units so they survive much longer

Hope you find this interesting and keep it on mind for the future
Issue is:when I played that mission on titan ennemi would literally counter all the units I m making by using fire or ice giants and axe throwmen
25 gold because you sent them back in the middle of the trade route (and before it was the carts with gold of previous trade route).
32:22 did he just say "keep pushing"?
In my opinion you underestimate the strength of walkiries: cost only food, fast, strong and heal all (making lot of spare). In any case, waste norse god power won by fight only (kills by humans only), is not good at all.
finally seem hill fort power was understood.
If you use all of your fire weapons godly power at the same time you keep the buff from all of them but the last one, making it easier, I rushed to the temples for them and was easier
you should just built fortresses, they are very effective in massses
People have so many diffrent theories about deforestation;
The only one I see is Biper and the cost of Huscarls!
wow, just wow! probably my favourite so far.. soo much hero deaths as well :))

dragons are weak against jebaits
When age of empires becomes don't starve. All about surviving.

you seriously need to create more myth units. You're almost always capped at 100

I guess it is more of a matter of the thought behind it
The Golden Boar was for Freyr not Freyja. Freyr's her brother

DELETE YOUR FRIGGIN FIRST MARKET! so your trade doesnt Bugg
Are you still enjoying making this series ?
1:13:06 why are you running???

Well it could be called first try 🤣
Viper is a masterjebaiter (I'll see myself out)
So whats the reason for difference i gold generated through trade? (non AOM player here)
the ones with 11 gold had gold from their trip to viper's north tc relative to his market in the north. when they have 23(?) they're the distance on the map from the east tc to his north market because they came from that market. when they reach both the east tc and his south market once it re evaluates the trade properly to the 78(?) gold that viper was expecting them to have
When u start with aoe 3 ?
Play STAR WARS GALACTIC BATTLEGROUNDS please ! pretty please snek boi !!!
please play vs themista on aom and aoc i would love that even if its gonna be obveous result.. mista is almost 19+ on aoc so he can do decent at least
