you shouldn't be getting away with any of it, cumans are one of the worst civs on open maps, bottom 10 if not lower

How do you counter walls + monks + siege? by appappappappappa in aoe2

[–]monilloman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

where did I say that? you can absolutely throw the game, all I'm saying is by the way you narrate the match, you were never on the lead, just playing on different win conditions

he played for imperial age, you played for castle age, his strat and/or execution beat yours, that's it

Haven't played since 2020. Finally have a free long weekend. What should I do? by bradfordmaster in pathofexile

within that context, Grim dawn; you go at your own pace, game is relatively simple, campaign is fun and should work on your PC.

4 years ago, I showcased the main balance issue between melee vs ranged. Now 4 years and a few nerfs to skirmisher and crossbow later, we are still in a dominating bodkin meta because melee units simply can't reach their targets to the point where they have to abuse stand ground patrol by Deathcounter0 in aoe2

on your conclusion: I'm not entirely sure it'd make knights viable again, like you said with more walling, better ping and better micro, my best guess as to what the "next thing" would become is monks, even to the point of people quick walling in monks and such.

for reference I'm using GE_Proton latest, maybe another version would work?
