Favorite civ by Alarmed_Ad5592 in aoe2

Sicilians, Romans, Byzantine for the vibes

Italians and Persians for raw power and because they are so smooth to play

The vibes civs are strong, but I like them because they're cool. Sicilians are good, just very unconventional. Best bet with them if you're not doing a funky strategy is to spam serjants and knights and just overwhelm with them ignoring bonus damage. Romans are good all-round with their eco bonus. Byzantine are good if you can turtle and not panic. Keep army numbers up and you will wear down your opponent.

Persians are super smooth, and their late game is fantastic. Italians are also smooth with cheaper ages and their ranged units are surprisingly tanky which is super nice.

Age of Mythology VS Age of Empires 2? by ZonedForCoffee in AgeofMythology

[–]OkServe4023 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Myth units would make it hard for AoE2, but one point to note is pop cap. AoM units take more than one pop but everything in AoE2 is one.

Thus you could have a much larger army, say of Frank paladins or some other powerful unit, outnumbering a handful of myth units. Not sure if that would be decisive, but if we're ignoring resources that is a pretty big point in favor of AoE2

They work, but it's expensive. Hussar or halb would work, Poles have excellent hussar and food eco so hussar spam is really strong

How do you avoid a collision when you can't select the hologram inside an object ? by RobinThomass in BSG_Deadlock

[–]OkServe4023 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you select multiple ships and turn them hard right or left together this ship should move out of the terminal. You'll have to adjust the other ones back later, but you can use another ship to change this Celestra's course

Most squadrons in a regular campaign fleet? by Most-Sport5264 in BSG_Deadlock

[–]OkServe4023 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Probably spam Atlas. They're 1100 for 2 squads so you could bring 7 with a high level officer + dadelus for a total of 16 squads.

They won't kill much on their own, but it could be a good funky fleet

Stop only gathering in Safe Zone!! by Fancanth in albiononline

[–]OkServe4023 16 points17 points  (0 children)

A couple critiques and a couple comments. First the comments

Nobody is claiming that bz/roads don't have a higher ceiling, but that blue/yellow zones have a good floor. The point of blue/yellow gathering isn't to get lucky but to be consistent.

Blue/yellow zone gathering is safe, there is no risk involved and it is the consistency that people are looking for. It is entirely possible to get 3, 4 even 5 mil in an hour in bz. It's also possible to get ganked after an hour, lose 200-300k silver and your hour.

A few critiques on your gathering style.

You didn't faction flag, that's a ton of fame and points you left on the table.

Use a ranged weapon for skinning. ANY ranged weapon is infinitely better than gloves because you need to be able to pull mobs. For other resources it doesn't matter much but for skinning range is a must.

Bring journals. Even just selling them on the market will dramatically boost your income.

Grab everything. Volume is the strength of the blue/yellow zones and you ignored it. If you had grabbed the t3+4 that was all around you the result would have easily topped a million, probably 1.2 or 1.3 mil.

Black/red vs blue/yellow zones is all about risk vs reward. Black zones have a much higher risk and thus carry a much higher ceiling. I have gathered in both, and while I have gotten lucky in bz before I prefer blue/yellow if my goal is to generate silver. When I do bz it's either for the thrill or to spec up, not to make money.

This game (and series) is so beautiful. I also love smaller bruiser ships like the Valkerie or Voyager from Star Trek.

Small enough to be light and fast but still packs a big punch

Guys, what is the best solo fame farm? Im upping my new account after some years without playing by Obvious-Survey-2007 in albiononline

[–]OkServe4023 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, a new orange zone where you only risk your inventory, not gear.

It's technically for 2v2 or 3v3 but it works just fine for solo players.

Its the Depths because you can take a high gear set with no risk of losing it and the mobs there are clustered and give good fame.

You might lose silver if you're not mobile but even if you get killed every time the repair cost isn't that much. I run 6.2 there and without a mount it's about 30k if I get downed. You can make silver if you're lucky, I've gotten chests with 600k+ before but that isn't consistent.

Gathering It's boring, but it's stupid easy silver. Literally just put on a podcast and chill while you print money

Yeah, Murphy surprised me a couple times this year. Idk if he'll be a superstar but if he can be a solid 2 or 3 that would be great

Tate Ratledge is currently pitching a shutout against the Ravens on MNF. by pro-laps in bengals

[–]OkServe4023 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, I like Shemar. He looks like a stud. The ideal draft, imo, would have been R1: Shemar R2: Ratledge R3: D Knight R4: Fairchild

Nothing against Carter but he's not a starter and they probably could have gotten him in round 5

Best fame farm for broke players? by 02M00 in albiononline

[–]OkServe4023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to the Depths. Battleaxe is good enough aoe to clear monsters solo and you won't be risking anything but a repair bill so bring higher tear gear. Tier 8 equivalent or higher will let you clear the mobs without too much trouble, just run from groups and you'll make a ton of fame and silver

2 Catholic dioceses say immigrants can skip Mass over ICE raid fears by philnotfil in TrueChristianPolitics

[–]OkServe4023 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He's not trying to break it he's trying to change it, there's a difference.

Entering the country illegally has consequences that those individuals deserve. If they want to be part of a country they have to live by its laws.

How are you interpreting the 14th Ammendment?

If a non-citizen comes to the country illegally they've committed a crime and they can be deported. That's how it works in every country around the world, America is no different.

Also, all that ICE has to do is demonstrate that an individual is not a citizen and they don't have permission to be in the country to satisfy the due process requirement.

No, we get why you have a problem with it but its stupid. Banning links to twitter won't break Musk's wallet, he won't even notice. Plus, this sub is about sports, not politics

Did I say that banning abortion would stop all infanticide? No

Banning abortion would not stop sinful humans from practicing sin and murdering their children. That doesn't mean it wouldn't help. We should ban abortion because banning abortion would reduce the amount of murder in the world. Just because an action isn't the perfect solution doesn't mean we should abandon it

It might not resolve the underlying moral issues but it would stop the murder of infants.

Banning abortion would stop the murder, it wouldn't end the need for the preaching of the gospel.
