      @@Street_Cop_Actual_ Well I mean, french heavy cavalry was one of the most terrifying thing you could encounter on a battlefield during the early medieval period (cavalry literally comes from the french word "cavalerie" and chivalry, "chevalerie" because it comes from "cheval", a horse.) so actually, the depiction in the game is completely relevant with the annoying early knight. And for the surrender part, i guess a country who won what we call "the hundred years' wars" is solely enough to show that surrendering is not really a french habit

    Drongo, i have a bug that i have reported and posted threads about, but it would be nice if you knew about it, to boost the signal, the age 4 supercastle landmark for HRE cannot use the emergency repair ability, it's greyed it and insists that its not in influence, i connected it to my main TC, and even built a fresh TC right next to it, it nearly costed me a game because i counted on having the ability on it.

      Yeah, I personally think it should be patched out. It effectively doubles a players attack. That's not a small boost, it makes it simply impossible to compete without it. Unlike the AoE2 archer micro, it also doesn't fade out later on (as happened with ballistics research).

That gave Viper the big advantage. Red guy should have build a tower near his docks asap early like viper did. That would have slowed down viper quit a bit.

    Maybe it wasn't the greatest idea to split the rock-paper-scissors ships into different ages and then give a civ earlier access to the next up in the winning circle. They should go back to giving all civs access to all ship classes starting Feudal.

    • @Sids1192
      @Sids1192 3 года назад

      On the other hand, if you manage to get to imperial age, do the French have a counter to demos? If I'm seeing that right, they have no archer ships. If they're the only civ that has a glaring gap in their tech tree, that could make them very vulnerable.

    • @Muenni
      @Muenni 3 года назад

      @@Sids1192 Their Galleass can fire while moving and fires forward and I think is classed as an arrow ship, though it's slow moving, slow firing, very high damage, high cost and hp, really an attack ship from most stats, with low armour though (not ideal against archer ships), but the range us a war ship. So some kind of hybrid, I'd say.
      But really, once you have a significant number of attack ships, I'm sure they can stop any demo ship from reaching themselves or any war ships behind that.

      Abby of kings is pretty bad namely because of the 'out of combat' requirement which is a 5+ second wait after leaving combat, then you have to wait to heal. Frankly its a pretty garbage age building. Other religious buildings have better advantages, delhi has -50% monk cost, and HRE has the massive influence buff all around them. Abby of kings doesn't actually heal all that much either. Makes me wonder who tf play tested that build and thought yeah, this is fine.. It at least needs to heal whilst in combat, nothing less will even begin to make it viable.

  • @Sids1192
    @Sids1192 3 года назад

    Might be an unpopular opinion, but I think the ship turning thing should be patched out. It's a micro exploit that effectively doubles your units attack. That's a huge bonus that makes it impossible for players to compete without it. Given how Relic has removed the ability to dodge archer fire, I don't think this is the sort of thing that fits with the game (plus, the dodging was largely tempered by the fact that you would eventually research ballistics and make it pretty ineffective. No such fade out here.
    It's also unrealistic and looks silly. Sure it's real that ships have ballistas on both sides that fire independently, but it's unrealistic to be able to take advantage of that as ships don't really turn that fast.
