    “Robert di Hotteville left Normandy in 10,047 with a small rubber band.”
    Classic opening line. Up there with “Call me Ismael.” and “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.”

      That was back in the day when rubber bands were "real" rubber bands and not the wishy-washy rubber bands we have today.

    well, that worked out fine... I bet the devs knew about Vipers history of losing heroes and designed that one specifically for him. Imagine them sitting there giggling and writing "use the hero in battle often" :DD

    game: you come to a fork in the road. Your units are battered and exhausted, many of them near death. Both paths are unexplored, but enemy units are sure to be nearby. What do you do?
    Viper: I split my party in two halves and send them in different directions and then stop paying attention to what happens

      @filthydelphiacreations1619 3 года назад +7

      It demonstrates a fundamental difference in play between a primarily MP and a primarily SP player. The former relies on his macro to outproduce an enemy while the latter plays more like a commander of troops.

  • @xotl2780

    In case anyone is wondering, the Norman barons have basically no armour or upgrades, so attacking them isn't as scary as you might think at first glance.

    Hey Viper, it seems that you like those RPG camaigns with limited eco and many sidequests.So I'm just letting you know that Filthydelphia is the the author of Sicillian campaign and he has many more similar custom campaings that you might like. Maybe you could check them out at some point? Also thanks for uploading this to RUclips!

    Argyrus has some monks in Bari, so you can use them to heal your knights. Keep the sarjents to deffend the southern base from sarracen attacks Once you have the four Norman bases, send everything to the northern base of Guaimar. Setting your troops propertly, go neutral to him, et voilá. You have a walled base with TC and resources around to rush Yellow castle.
    Hope these advices help you, mates.

    Something I absolutely love about this mission is that the AI predicted I would betray him. I was like 4 minutes away from declaring war on the greek guy by destroying his castle hard and fast and he attacked first and drove me out of my eastern territory. I don't know if it was intentional but that was very good. Something also told me he payed Cyan to harass me because Cyan was a massive pain in the ass to everyone except purple.

    Quoting the age of empires wiki, as the mechanics are complicated and confuse many (It is impossible to convert any unit in the first 3 intervals - unless you have inquisition):
    "From The Conquerors onwards, AI Monks attempt to convert their target at regular intervals, called here conversion intervals (CI), roughly equal to 1 game-time second. Once a Monk is at conversion range of his target, his first CI starts. His three first CIs have no effect on the target and only serve as warm-up. Starting from the fourth CI, the Monk has a 28% chance to convert a unit at the end of every CI. The Monk is guaranteed to convert his target at the end of the 10th CI. Switching targets does not reset the conversion intervals; however, moving in any direction does reset it.
    The Teutonic team bonus adds 1 minimum CI, 2 maximum CIs, and 2 resistance levels.
    Faith adds 2 minimum CIs, 4 maximum CIs, and 3 resistance levels.
    All units start at resistance level 0, except for the Scout Cavalry line and Eagles, which start at level 8. From level 2 onwards, the chance to be converted at every CI is (28/n)%, where n is the conversion resistance level. Actually, units are not always guaranteed to be converted at the maximum CI. The probability of conversion switches from 0.28/n to 10/n starting from the beginning of the maximum CI. Units at level 10 or below are always converted, but Scouts and Eagles with at least Faith researched have a low probability of being converted. If they are also Teutonic or allied to a Teuton, they not only have a high chance of reaching that maximum CI, but they can randomly survive 1 to 2 extra CIs before being converted."
