don't forget: Austria have all armored infantry in 17th century and a small note: the role of a skirmish unit is for high dmg on long distance - they usual have more range as musketeer as well as can upgrade their ranged dmg
Great video! Worth adding with Turkey is their awesome archers with insane range that out-reach most musketeer units (and doesn't cost minerals to use). Same goes for Scotland and their archers :)
I only just started playing this game and maybe it's because the specific settings I'm playing with, which are: tiny map, minimum starting resources and no peace time. But I can't see why would anyone build any musket units, because pikemen are so much better - meaning cheaper and faster to produce. So in the same amount of time you can always produce enough pikemen to overpower musket units. I've done some testing I put 2 barracks 2 XVIII century barracks in two teams (one team was Poland, and second was Prussia) in Polish team I didn't use any upgrades while on Prussia while units were being produced I researched ALL upgrades for ranged units and when after about 5 minutes I send them to attack Polish army still won. I then tried to mix pikemen with musketeers on Prussia team and Polish team always won. So unless there are some bottle necks on the map, which ranged units could take advantage of pikemen seem always a better option to me. So far I'm playing only vs AI, but I already managed to defeat 3 impossible AIs without training any musketeers. I do use cavalry, artillery and priests since those do not interfere with pikemen production.
@@MichaPawelec-tz4ub your right, it depends on game settings. With games that have atleast 20 mins peace time, musketeers are always the way to go. You must upgrade them fully and get a few of the academy upgrades tho. What you want to do is to also have some sort of melee unit like mercenary roundshires or melee cavalry, this way your melee troops will lock the advancing enemy in combat while your musketeers shoot them from behind. You can do this the other way round with pikemen and dragoons although it is usually more expensive. Hope this helps.
@@MichaPawelec-tz4ub watch some of my most recent “road to 7v1” videos, it shows how I play against impossible ai, mostly using melee units like pikemen early game then switching to musketeers late game
Try playing online against humans. It's a completely different experience. Pikemen have some advantages, especially in 1v1 games on a small map with no peace time. But In the early game, musketeers can retreat in small, divided groups in different directions, making it really hard to manage your pikemen. By the mid-game (around the 15th minute), with musk upgraded rate of fire, pikemen become useless against musketeers.
@@jouash4 can I Invite you on the 2 biggest CSX3 discords? One is international with international ranking and one is polish (ours), ther are a lot of pro gamers there, you can ask us for advise :D
Im honestly not too sure, my pc is high end and it runs great, i dont think you need anything too special for this game specifically as its not too demanding. As for laptop prices at the moment i dont really know.
@@tamasmolnos7070 depends on the situation. If you can easily produce troops and aren’t under immediate pressure then I’d go szekelys. If you’re constantly getting attacked and raided id go muskets. Szekelys are better but take more time to train plus I think their rate of fire is slower I’m not sure.
i think the Grenadiers of prussia are better than the musketeers but still they are a bit more expensive but they do the best all around dmg. they have less range dmg than musketeer, more meelee dmg than pikeman and can destory building in no time. but they suffer in the early and mid game.
@@shahamirshahamir-g5s if you own it on steam, you can right click the game in your library and go to properties, you should find the key in there somewhere
Cool video, but some huge errors there in your tierlist. Hungary is 100% S tier. They are strong in the early/mid game because of their 17c shooters and the choice between 17c hussars or 17c dragoons. In late game they have a mix of pure mass and quality. Their special 18c shooters combined with mass of 18c dragoons and 17c musks plus artillery make them probably the strongest late game nation. In general an overall tierlist doesnt really make sense to me. You should make one for early, mid and late game.
Thanks for the feedback man, I would probably change some of it myself as my opinion has changed since making this, I might do a updated one in a few months, also might do one for unit types.
That doesn't make too much sense as nations strength strongly depend on the game settings and map. For instance on a small map and without PT, Algeria is probably A, or even S tier.
I can't believe you put Sweden with Algeria, did you loose to Bubble recently and just wanted to piss him off?))) P.S. Venice has the smallest cutest houses, nice for the late game fortress
Of course Ukraine is better than Russia. Though I am surprised, they didn’t make Ukraine the best country. Considering the game was created by a ukranian group
@@KolyaUrtz no, Kolya, Ukraine has pretty much existed back then. Of cource your russian "history" tells you it was invented by Lenin. And before that it was popular russian theory that Ukraine was invented by Austria-Hungary. None of those or other schizo and imperialistic theories are true though.
@@KolyaUrtz since 1648 as an independent state, it wasn't just a "cossack culture". Since 1654 it continued exist as a vassal state of moscow tsardom, while russia didn't existed with that name back then. While Ukraine was known as Ukraine and is constantly on historical maps, unlike russia, which didn't existed, you can agree with me on that one I'm sure.
Nice that some people still make content about cossacks it is a great game.

Cool stuff, always nice to see youtube cossacks content!
@@cloacky4409 thanks man!
Piemont has strongest Dragun 18st in the game and strongest healer in the game, nice video BTW! Agree with most of positions with you.

Hey, Venice has a unique ship! And cool houses!
Do you participate in Cossacks' turnament, like WCC? Would like to see someone, except of slavs there
Hi, it depends of rules in the game, some of nations are very good on 0pt rules and some are better for 15pt rules etc
Exactly! All nations have a purpose, I tried my best to take into consideration all scenarios

Tiers D and E are only available in DLC ;)
Venice get a few more ferries than the standard European roster, that's the only difference if I recall

What do you think for hungary , Székelys or the 18th muskets are better ?

My guy put Prussia in F tier in thumbnail and predicted the ragebait click views.
lol, had to do it
very coool!!!!
Shouldn't agree on Switzerland just the XVIII century Jegars are over power due to their range.
Ukraine is higher then russia. Thank you, I'm satisfied by watching that video.
Ofc it is, but just because it is fictional game xd
historically inaccurate but whatever, its a game
This!

Scotland has faster infantry, looks like it's inspired by AoE2 Celts, just like the original Cossacks :)
France, Austria, Algeria, Turkey, Russia are OP early
Hungary, Swiss are OP late game. Poland, Ukraine is ok mid game.
Swiss is the best nation in early or in late game. Game is based on history
Scotlands my fave nation I think there the best ngl
They can defo be good if you master them!
That doesn't make too much sense as nations strength strongly depend on the game settings and map.
For instance on a small map and without PT, Algeria is probably A, or even S tier.
Agree, similar situation is with Scottland, their pikeman has very strong damage, plus their swordmen are fast, great hp and crazy damage.
I can't believe you put Sweden with Algeria, did you loose to Bubble recently and just wanted to piss him off?)))
P.S. Venice has the smallest cutest houses, nice for the late game fortress
lol in hindsight I should probably put them higher, just didn’t like their buffs

Are you jelly?
@@PUARockstarwhy? It makes sense for me that the ukranian developers wanted to be their country powerful
