    Top Unique Counters vs. Halberdier

    Top Unique Counters vs. Halberdier

    I just tested them and here are the results. I was quite surprised that Kamayuks do so extremely well against them and that Halberdiers don't destroy War Elephants more decisively given their +28 bonus against Elephants.

    For the tests I assume equal resources (eg 50 Halberdiers vs 26 Imperial Camel Riders), PostImperial Age and no micro. 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)

    Hotkey preferences

    Posted: 21 Jun 2020 03:29 AM PDT

    Hi, I just finally made the decision to switch to DE after having played HD for about a year now, and playing my first game I noticed that the hotkeys are completely different.

    I know that you can set default hotkeys to HD, but I was wondering if it's worth to learn the new hotkeys. Maybe they are better?

    SOTL: New Farming Meta?

    Posted: 20 Jun 2020 10:14 AM PDT

    New to game and can’t counter longbows. Help!

    Posted: 20 Jun 2020 11:06 PM PDT

    I just started playing a few months ago. I know the starting build order and have experimented with rush and fast castling. I think I have the beginner stuff down ok. So here is the issue- I feel like at low levels I'm always facing britons. The last 2 games I faced britons in arena and bf (although I prefer open maps). I was Mayans. My plumed archers got outmatched while my mangonels and skirmishers couldn't get in range. They also had trebs so they just slowly creeped close whole destroying from a distance while I couldn't get to them. What should I do in that situation? Is there a counter or am I screwed once they mass them? Do plumed archers fare ok against them? I tried rushing but the maps don't suit it.

    So many quitters

    Posted: 21 Jun 2020 07:09 AM PDT

    Whether its 2v2, 3v3, 4v4, CBA, Arena, etc

    It's like if we go down in economic score, lose a fight, or the wind blows the wrong way - someone quits. I've seen this when we are in the lead and they get attacked, right before help arrives.. they give up. More often than not they are toxic too.

    Where are these people coming from? Has it always been like this?

    Cost efficiency matrices for most AoE2 unit types (generated using updated AoE2 Combat Simulator)

    Cost efficiency matrices for most AoE2 unit types (generated using updated AoE2 Combat Simulator)

    Hi everyone,

    a few weeks ago I've published my AoE2DE Combat Simulator here on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/aoe2/comments/gz6mew/age_of_empires_2_combat_simulator/

    Since then I have...

    1. ...reworked the simulation process (especially cases with trample/cleave/AOE damage, and very uneven army sizes)
    2. ...brushed up the UI.
    3. ...added cost efficiency matrices for different scenarios (different Hit&Run modes and different stages of the game (e.g. during the end of 1v1 matches, gold is often worth more than five times as much as food or wood <=> common market exchange rate is 100F=100W=17G)).

    ​

    Below you can see one exemplary cost efficiency matrix for the specified setting (no Hit&Run and resources of equal worth).

    I've automatically generated this matrix (and all other matrices) using my combat simulator https://aoe-combatsim.com/ .

    The matrix basically gives information about the cost efficiency (or inefficiency) of each unit type vs. each other unit type.

    For matrices with different settings (especially Hit&Run behaviour for ranged units) and further information just visit https://aoe-combatsim.com/ .

    Or have a look at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZVT7kQYvoM&t if you want to know further details about the simulator and the simulation process.

    Feel free to send feedback, suggestions for improvement or report bugs.

    Important: The simulator hasn't been optimized for mobile devices yet!

    Why is fall of constantinople not in the campaigns?

    Posted: 20 Jun 2020 02:21 PM PDT

    There are all kind of battles in the campaigns but I find it weird that the fall of constantinople, which is a major pivot point in history, not included.

    I could be missing it might be under different name? If not then why is it not included?

    I always lose against turtles. Help me, please.

    Posted: 20 Jun 2020 03:18 PM PDT

    I've been playing AoE since the '90s, and back in the day I don't remember so much turtling. I'm not very good at it (1200 HD). It seems that at this level nowadays everybody walls themselves right from the start. People don't rush anymore? Only walls, walls and walls. I always rush, and find walls, and then the other guy goes to FC or even Fast Imperial before me and wipes me out of the map, usually with knights of archers. It's very frustrating. It feels like playing the same game again and again. Am I being too slow? Have I missed the last trend? Am I too old for this game? Any advise?

    My teammate and I got to a certain level (RM 2v2), now we're playing worse than ever. Any advice?

    Posted: 20 Jun 2020 01:08 PM PDT

    So, long story short. My friend and I have been playing RM 2v2 (mostly the open maps) for these past 2 months (at least 4 games/day). We both used to play on Voobly/HD before, but not that much.

    We can perform quite decent build orders, got all the GOLD medals on the Art of War (as of practice) and such. But we hit around 1870 team rank and now it seems like we can't do ANYTHING to win a single match.

    We try to boom, we get outboomed or countered heavy. We go for early agression, we do well, we still loose, we even lost (Im ashamed to say this) a 1v2 today.

    Do you guys have experienced this, or have some advice as how to play better as a team of 2?

    Think it would be cool if the girls had a tournament. If there is enough that play to have one.
