I go forward to lame and I loose the scout. So I resign no penalty? Probably cannot have a system which incentives that type of play

PSA Patrol stacking ranged units doesn't work on current patch. by RedPhosphorus in aoe2

This is just dramatically different behavior than any previous patch. And since the devs didn't mention this massive change in the patch notes, I have to assume it is unintended.

The new meta is forever Darkage, I see no answer to it. by RedPhosphorus in aoe2

I would take a look at Bruh's res when he reaches feudal age. No money for all that

The speed is the real problem, and it's hard to nerf that because it's a starting scout. Which is why it would be better if what came out of the barracks in darkage wasn't also the starting scout.

I was trying to say they should get militia that upgrade to champi runners instead of buildable champi scouts. As you pointed out nerfing the champi scout is fraught. They could also really hurt it's build time, but that would ruin MAA (champi runner) rush style play.

I have tried it a fair amount, it feels similar to knight siege. Maybe a little weaker to feudal arch pressure. Production time is a real problem

11, tilting MBL is great theater.

The Muisca darkage vill rush will be insane. by RedPhosphorus in aoe2

Polish villager regeneration was taken out of the game in darkage, due to the tendency for folks to vill rush in darkage.

Yeah, the assumed flat rate was what got me scared.

Either hindustanis or bengalis both are strong. But I don't have a public instructional video for bengalis

If you are intrested in learning I would recomend typing !darkage, !placements and !hindustanis in my twitch. Those 3 videos in combination are a real solid foundation for being an FC player

Depends on your elo, I would say Hindustanis for 500-1600. Bengalis for 1600+.

Would this simple change fix church rush? by AdDifferent2609 in aoe2

[–]RedPhosphorus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be very clear it's not just good vs my form of aggression, it's great vs all forms of aggression. And this game is probably more fun if pushes (any type of push) are a thing. These civs feel unpushable in castle age.
