    "Hotfix" incoming?

    I found this old screenshot from a game where everyone agreed to feudal age only, incas only, villagers only and thought it was quite funny and I'd share

    Flat Earth Society was right all along!

    Top Unique Counters vs. Imperial Camel Rider

    Top Unique Counters vs. Imperial Camel Rider

    I just tested them and here are the results. Imperial Camel Rider are the second unique unit of the Indians and get a huge +18 bonus against cavalry.

    https://preview.redd.it/lhajov73wm651.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=4177febb4991ab1ce41a250d3f20e12a15b697a6

    For the tests I assume PostImperial Age, no micro and equal resources, for example 26 Imperial Camel Rider (55F, 60G each) vs 33 Genoese Crossbowman (45G, 45W each). Then after the fight I count the HP of the winning unit and > 60% HP would be an A-Tier counter. I did all that 5 times to get a good average.

    Disclaimer: This is not a ranking of how useful a unit is overall. It simply measures how well units do when patrolled into each other. Units have many attributes such as speed, range, attack damage and armor. This mostly focuses on attack and armor by design. So Teutonic Knights are expected to perform better than Mangudai (bc they can't make use of speed and range). This approach has its shortcomings but can hopefully still be useful because you know how it was created. Let me know what you would change :) (More detailed explanation is in the beginning of the video)

    [PSA] You can change the map gen in Cicero's BO trainers

    Posted: 22 Jun 2020 03:26 PM PDT

    Open the scenario in the Editor, choose "Random Map" and under "Random Map Location" hit "Build Order Arabia", then Test the scenario. Now you can do the BO scenarios while also practicing your normal scouting.

    Edit: Well actually, you can choose whatever map you want. Want to try out the BO on a map like Kilimanjaro or Hill Fort with irregular resource starts? You can, it works!

    WHO WINS? The Battle of the Catalaunian Plains: Attila the Hun vs Western Roman Empire

    WHO WINS? The Battle of the Catalaunian Plains: Attila the Hun vs Western Roman Empire

    Battle of the Catalaunian Plains

    -Attila on the blue side consists of a mass of Heavy Cavalry Archers, Elite Tarkans, and a scatter of Elite Skirmishers. They are outnumbered by the Western Roman Empire.

    -Meanwhile the Western Roman Empire consists of an Imperial Skirmisher front line, Cavaliers, Legionary, Huskarls as they also had Gothic allies, Elite Cataphracts, Elite Longbowman, and Elite Konnik and Elite Teutonic Knights on the side flank. They are led by Aetius and Theodoric the Goth.

    In history this battle's victor was disputed, however it was Roman favoured. The Romans had gotten hill advantage earlier and thus have the slight upper hand in speed and elevation.

    Any predictions?

    What Old School Habit(s) Can You Just Not Break?

    Posted: 22 Jun 2020 09:46 PM PDT

    After a ton of DE games, I still force drop food between food varieties. Switching from boar to sheep, better drop that food asap or risk losing 100s of food.....

    What habits do you still have that DE has made obsolete?
