    Arrow firing archery range

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 06:17 AM PDT

    Good evening community. I was just thinking every Archery range has got tower like structure. So what if one of the bonuses of a one of the civilizations is "Archers garrisoned in an archery range fire arrows". How would you think bonus would work out? Will it be OP or meh?

    Please mark tournament results as spoilers.

    Posted: 19 Aug 2020 11:58 AM PDT

    Hello people,

    I just wanted to kindly ask everyone here to mark posts that include recent tournament or showmatch results as spoilers. I personally, and I think I am not the only one, will not be able to catch the Wololo 2 live, and it would be nice if those who can watch it live, would mark possible posts about it as spoilers if those posts show the results of games. At least until 3 or 4 days after the finals.

    I would really appreciate it, if you guys could do that, and would be very thankful!

    Kind regards from Germany!

    Unpopular walling opinion

    Posted: 19 Aug 2020 05:43 PM PDT

    I think these people who hate walling to the extent that they want maps made more open and walls to be nerfed with lower hp etc are all ONLY good at rushing and don't want to learn anything past feudal/early castle age..

    Im about 1k 1v1 elo, and 1350-1400 team elo, so certainly no pro, but not objectively terrible either.

    Anyways I love playing Arena and booming, but I also really love the super aggressive and messy Socotra games with the scramble to get an army out quickly and get map control. So im not someone who exclusively booms, and really enjoy feudal/ early castle aggression as well

    I just don't understand why people seem to hate any one play style so much when the game is so dynamic that you can wall up or you can rush and BOTH are effective, and fun when done correctly.

    P.s. I love this community, and I guess if this offends you then you might want to play the "how to boom" art of war and learn how to wall up

    If civs that have ring archer armor have bracer instead of ring armor

    Posted: 19 Aug 2020 11:59 PM PDT

    Malians, Persians, Slavs, Teutons, and Cuman have ring archer armor, but don't have bracer.

    So I wondered if they have bracer instead of ring archer armor, how they change? They will be better or not?

    I don't think they need to bracer, but just curious.

    Why are Vikings so Strong in Arabia?

    Posted: 19 Aug 2020 01:44 PM PDT

    The other day I heard that vikings are one of the best if not THE best Civ for 1v1 in Arabia, and I'm wondering why that is... All I see is that they have a good economic benefit with Wheelbarrow, Hand Cart being free. Other than that, I don't know what is that makes them so good for Arabia 1v1. So, What am I missing?
    Thanks guys for helping this poor noob understand the game better.

    AoE2DE: How to Kill a Boar

    Posted: 19 Aug 2020 12:09 PM PDT

    Im losing every single time to inca vil/tower rush and it's getting hopeless

    Posted: 19 Aug 2020 10:22 AM PDT

    I might've faced the strategy atleast 20 times and as far as I remember I've lost every single one.

    I've tried everything.Fighting with my own vils,counter towering,drusing,m@a, straight archers and scouts.

    But nothing fucking works.Even if I don't lose any vils and just shift my eco around,and end up in a better position than my opponent,I get a castle dropped on my face.

    I've done the strategy myself a few times and won every single time, except an inca mirror.

    I seriously don't understand what I'm supposed to do.Even fucking military does nothing against 50 food units.Just leaves you feeling like shit.

    I need help getting over a hump. Is FC really the meta or am I missing something?

    Posted: 19 Aug 2020 02:31 PM PDT

    Hi guys,

    So to begin, I'm a roughly 1300TG player. I enjoy team games, they are just more fun for me in different ways mostly because I like the fact that there are so many more units on the field sometimes.

    My question is just about me getting to the next level in my play. Now, I think I've got some build orders down and my go-to is 19 pop scouts with Mongols but I've recently started to go with the MAA - Archers strategy I saw Hera doing on YouTube as the Mayans. Both work pretty well for the most part.

    Now, my question surrounds feudal aggression. I'm really hitting a wall because in a couple of past games I've been doing MAA - Archers and I'm hitting a palisade wall with both. So what ends up happening is I get quickwalled out or just can't get through and now my opponent is suddenly further ahead. Later on, he's into castle before me and therefore ahead on villagers from extra TC's and later on arrives with knights to really set me back.

    So, I am trying to figure something. Fast castle is fine and I can do it too, but it seems fucking boring and I know that once I hit the next level feudal aggression and even drush's will become the norm. I'm just not executing it correctly or not making decisions right.

    Can someone get me on the right direction? At this point should I even bother sending out my six archers if they run straight into a palisade, because even my MAA are running into palisades early on and then get housewalled behind whatever villager is stopping them.

    Thank you for any help guys, I love this community.

    Farewell, my love

    Posted: 20 Aug 2020 02:28 AM PDT

    Today I officially announce my retirement from this game.

    Two months of grinding games to go up in 1v1 rating has left me sidetracked on my life goals It's a dangerous game to get into, the grind never stops and every loss hurts.

    I retire at 1070 1v1 rating and 80 hours played. I'm happy with this. The amount of hours I'd have to put in to get to even 1200 or 1500 is inconceivable with a full-time job and following my passion on the side (writing).

    Perhaps we will meet in unranked games but I will definitely keep watching Hera and Viper whenever I have time. The tournaments so far have been extremely entertraining.
