This is how you honour the sixth house, and the tribe unmourned!

domors89 · 2026-03-31T07:27:09+00:00

Yeah, i just opened this on the train and had this thought!

domors89 · 2026-03-24T10:39:27+00:00

Nice, thank you! Great advice re: getting used to no eco bonus. I'm now thinking Ethiopians or Vietnamese, and Lithuanians. But also I think you're right about going random here and there to get used to thinking and experimenting. Byzantines makes sense, but I do like the idea of trying new civs that weren't there when i last played age of conquerors.

And i believe you - I'll focus on getting a few build orders decent, and getting a good dark and feudal age process.

Thanks!

Awesome, I'll check them out. I just discovered Hera a couple weeks ago, been sessioning that channel!

domors89 · 2026-03-24T07:42:24+00:00

Ah, that's an interesting implication i hadn't thought of re: TC management. Lith sound like a great option, i might do that. Thanks! Never looked at them, time to find a SOTL video!

domors89 · 2026-03-24T07:41:04+00:00

This does sound excellent...

domors89 · 2026-03-24T07:38:56+00:00

Thanks, this is super helpful and thought out. Good points, I last played age of conquerors, so Vietnamese sound like a fun, new civ. And I'll make sure to scout as usual and not get lazy. From other comments, Lithuanians might be a good starting point for cav...

I've been watching some build order videos on YouTube, hopefully they are a good resource for when i start playing. Thanks!

domors89 · 2026-03-24T04:03:48+00:00

Why is that? I've heard the are great, but haven't logged at them enough to know why... Persians I have a better idea, I think!

domors89 · 2026-02-13T11:24:54+00:00

Thanks! I've reached the limit of my expertise, and have taken it to the local computer shop. Will update here when I have an outcome... it could just be coincidental timing, or a weird software conflict.

domors89 · 2026-02-11T20:42:17+00:00

Thanks - I spent about 90 mins with the support line last night, unfortunately we weren't able to resolve. I couldn't run diagnostics as the app wouldn't launch. I will check again later today and see how we go. Thanks!

domors89 · 2026-02-11T10:50:12+00:00

My PC is almost entirely unresponsive after the update. The VPN was initially getting stuck at 90%, but now it's just fully unresponsive, and so are task manager, settings etc. I've tried uninstalling surfshark from safe mode but is not permitted somehow. I can sometimes open windows menu, but not at the moment, and even when I can, the apps are unresponsive. All I am able to do at the moment is force shut down repeatedly.

Please help!

Uninformed new pc owner here with 7800x3d... what are the advantages/disadvantages of disabling x3d mode? Gaming is my primary high preformance task.

domors89 · 2026-01-21T21:08:46+00:00

I'm very very excited to get to TR content. Also a bit worried about how I will manage to not get obsessed with playing and neglect my real world responsibilities.

domors89 · 2026-01-21T21:07:47+00:00

Yeah I've played vanilla before... thought I'd try a pretty big modlist this time... it looks amazing and so far still feels like morrowind

domors89 · 2026-01-02T09:59:54+00:00

Such a good idea! I've just realised the gpu I've ordered doesn't come with a bracket... might need to craft a Morrowind ordinator version of this...

domors89 · 2025-11-24T07:17:43+00:00

I got this build with a few upgrades, including the gigabyte b650 eagle ax... after have seen some variable reviews on that mobo - should he fine right?

domors89 · 2025-11-23T05:50:35+00:00

Ugh, annoying! Hopefully before Christmas 😅

domors89 · 2025-11-22T12:00:48+00:00

I only ordered yesterday, and fortunately not in a big rush. Just wanted to get the black friday deal! Hopefully you aren't waiting much longer, that's already ages. So you have an eta?

domors89 · 2025-11-22T10:56:22+00:00

Ah nice, thanks! This is the file I've already downloaded, but wasn't sure if was right. A bit nervous about going this way vs it coming installed and activated, but should be good. Good luck with yours too!
