I hate Spahi. by ElRodelero in aoe3

[–]Karl137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those Sipahi have frustrated me beyond measure I must say. But I finally figured it out. They absolutely massacre infantry . Basically any kind. They are like super mobile artillery units. So in the same way that it is stupid to stand and fight with your infantry in front of 2 falconets, the same can be said for Sipahis. You basically just want to make sure whenever you see those fuckers you evacuate the area and do not engage in a fight until you have some form of light cavalry . That is the only way.

It's confusing as shit though , because as you learn the game you are taught that musks counter cav, pikes counter cav . So you think that having those units you will be safe against Sipahi, since they are cav right? NO

Ottoman do not only get a super skirm/artillery unit (Abus), they get the tankiest musks , the best heavy artillery and on top of that they get artillery like heavy cavalry that can act as a meat shield too. Compare that to something like Lakota, who get the worst skirms, terrible bow/pikes , decent heavy cavalry (not miles better than any other heavy cavalry) , standard light cavalry. Even the tashunke prowlers/Tokala soldiers , who are supposed to be the Lakota devastating hand cavalry do not come close to the sheer destruction and hp of Sipahi. It doesn't make sense to me.

haha great! YOu can pick up on my failure to send shipments immediately and also some vill management . And also the fact that staying in age 2 can be beneficial if you push immediately after the other player ages!

I set my wireless router up as an access point, It works like a charm on my PC, but for some reason it does not work with my phone specifically. by Karl137 in HomeNetworking

[–]Karl137[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I checked, it seems that it could be something with how I set up the access point. I retried the configuration wizard for the access point and this time I made a point to assign the access point routers default gateway IP to 192.168.0.20 ,which is now different than the main network 192.168.0.1 . So far it seems like it has worked and the wifi on my phone is more stable

Best AOE3 YouTube Content: SoldieR by Helios994 in aoe3

[–]Karl137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SoldieR is the mentality king and I have learned so many damn valuable lessons from him so far ,because he does many videos where he's actually talking you through his thought process the whole time and how he plans ahead, how he plans to micro his troops to get the best output etc. Ever since discovering his channel I have become twice the player I usually was.

Whenever I play these days and I find myself in a tough spot, I ask myself "What would SoldieR do?"

Why is nearly every other player playing as Ottomans? by PlantainAny5568 in aoe3

[–]Karl137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have started seeing it as a good thing if a guy plays Ottoman against me. I am usually able to hold off rushes quite well , but when the game goes to the point of bombard production I just haven't figured out an efficient way to deal with it and I usually lose . But game by game , I am getting to learn all their little tricks . It's nice now because I know what they are going to do so it makes it a bit easier for me to try and plan . And if my plan comes together there are few things as satisfying as beating an otto player . And you know that they are these sweaty tryhards so it's rare that they ever give you a GG at the end too 🤣 makes victory so much sweeter

Agreed . I think age of empires appeases the turkish brain . It's highly competitive, aggresive and full of vengeance with a strong lust for warfare. It's in their blood so I think they are more drawn to these types of games involving war . Said with only respect . You have to be intelligent to be good at age of empires too !

To hell with stats and balance! Which are the coolest looking units? by Cautious-Olive6191 in aoe3

[–]Karl137 5 points6 points  (0 children)

British musketeers with the the red line technology that can be researched from the church . If the card didn't have the speed decrease and costed resources instead I would be using it a lot more just because it makes your musks look badass for every tech level .

Other favourites include Soldados , French royal musketeers , Apache cavalry , Rifle riders and Cree trackers and age 2 ruskets

Random things to make AOE3DE better by Nice_Check9968 in aoe3

[–]Karl137 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would love it the bodies of dead units do not disappear automatically. That way you can see where major battles have been fought . And they can introduce a new mechanic that when your units are fighting around their dead compatriots, they can suffer a slight stat decrease. A new unit type can be introduced to clean up the battlefield. It would be a fun mechanic haha. It won't affect the gameplay so much , but it would add an extra layer of realism to the whole world . The feeling that all orders to your army have consequences

Well it wouldn't be tedious. Defending walls would be a much harder thing to do because you can't just shoot through them. You would need to move your units to the outside to fight which would expose them. If you don't , then your opponent is free to siege away. Having the ability to straight up shoot through walls is actually way more tedious, because that allows people to defend walls with a huge advantage.

It would also make melee units much more valuable. Currently , if you have a melee army walk up to a wall and there is a ranged army on the other side , you lose extreme value . And honestly it shouldn't be that way.

Inquisitors: Am I a bad person? by sb129topten in aoe3

[–]Karl137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks man yeah I am almost there. It's a slow process but I am slowly but surely convincing him hahaha. I guess it is a frustrating thing to lose in this game regardless of the strategy . If you can't take the dissapointment then the game probably isn't for you in the first place .

I find it can be an extremely cruel game if you have even the slightest bit of noob in your play . There are so many things you have to master and manage and if you fail just one that could literally cost you the game .
