    To all who has fully finished all campaigns, which one do you think is the hardest and what mission in particular?

    Is AoE2 DE good competitive game for new player?

    Posted: 27 Oct 2020 02:18 AM PDT

    Hi! I've been thinking to start playing new (rts) competitive game. I have played lot of rts games before but only Starcraft 2 competively. I have also played AoE1 and AoE3 long time ago but never really AoE2.

    How do you see Aoe2: DE as competitive game for new player (who have some experience in other RTS games)? Is it really difficult new player get better at this game in online? Is there only veterans in matchmaking or also plenty of other newbies who try to get in to this game?

    I understood major difference to Starcraft 2 is that games are much longer? Is there some others I should be aware of?

    Grouped cavalry movement

    Posted: 27 Oct 2020 01:24 AM PDT

    Is there a way to get a control group of cavalry to not move like a gaggle of retarded monkeys? If I use Attack Move or even patrol, instead of them each moving on that direction they re-form their group first, often times meaning the closest unit to what I want them to attack goes the WRONG way because he's supposed to be at the BACK, not up front. That's Chuck's spot, but Chuck is at the back so everyone has to wait to reshuffle the group before they attack.

    My First Ever Win

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 06:20 PM PDT

    I just got my first online victory in this game since I played it in the early 2000s.

    Got TC/scout rushed(?) but recovered, fought back with a quick krepost and countered with pikes and Konniks for a castle age win.

    Things I think I did well:

    1. I didn't panic too much when I got rushed(!!!)

    2. I was still economically ahead of my opponent right from the start (probably just because they were putting their resources into the rush)

    3. I seized the opportunity to attack and capitalized on a successful defense

    Things I did real bad:

    1. Definitely idled my TC a lot more than is acceptable when I was (trying) to micro my spears around to defend against scouts lol

    2. I lost WAY more villagers than I should have, despite my attempts at micro

    3. Didn't see the enemy TC drop on nearby resources until it was already too late

    A lot to improve on, especially when it comes to dealing with scout pressure since it happens A LOT to me (idk if that is common or not). I also desperately need to establish a build order. Trying to fast castle into konniks is fun but I'm no where near efficient at doing that yet lol

    Just excited and wanted to share

    How to beat Aztecs and other South American civs with an archer civ?

    Posted: 27 Oct 2020 04:40 AM PDT

    I will be playing in a tournament soon, where my first opponent is a big Aztec/SAcivs player, which are the civs I struggle with the most.

    I mostly play ethiopians for archers, easy pike tech switch, good siege and having the option of camels. But eagles kind of always run me down lol.

    Don't be shy to talk about other than archer civs, I'm curious in general about beating Aztecs.

    Last time I asked here about Tatars there was some good discussion, thanks :)

    Why Fire Ships Can't Shoot Over Other Units

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 03:13 PM PDT

    Was the "attack move" when right clicking enemy re-added?

    Posted: 27 Oct 2020 04:02 AM PDT

    this was legit one of the dumbest features they ever added. last few games i've had it happen at the most frustrating times. 15 longswords chasing a running away scout, while 10 vils take my rams under a castle. no amount of clicking will get them to attack the vils.

    I know I could have put them stand ground, but the first time I clicked and looked away. tried again and looked away. only after losing 2 of my rams did I realize what was happening, and then it was too late. stand ground really isn't an acceptable option to such a terrible gameplay mechanic

    Elephant Archer buff idea (that might be dumb)

    Posted: 27 Oct 2020 07:04 AM PDT

    Since it has seem dumb to me that one guy would be hoarding the entire carrying-casket on top of the elephant: What if you could garrison archers inside the unit (for example upto 3, elite 5), that could potentially shoot at multiple targets instead focusing on just one unit? Basically would be walking tower when enough archers garrisoned, same damage-rules for extra arrows could apply.

    Just some general questions for a noob...

    Posted: 26 Oct 2020 09:58 PM PDT

    Hey there, just some quick questions so I can improve the game with my friend.

    1.There's a way to make a set texture for a map pool? Me and my friends tend to play Arabia and other common maps but prefers greenland/grass texture rather than snow/sand which makes some details difficult to see and also more visually appealing. Making them always grassland would be a nice option to use if there is any.

    1. How to deal with mass kayamuks? They often win against other infantry thanks to extra range so they suffer less punity of focus-firing (unit limit against 1 in melee) and they drive in mass. My only answer is often gunpowder but not every civ has them.

    2. How to use Monk focused civilizations? Monks is by far the unit I have the most trouble using thanks to the micro requirements and often dies instantly to any focus fire. How to make each Monk target units separatly so it can use conversion correctly instead of using all conversion on one unit?

    3. How to change the type of unit/building in a control group? In Starcraft 2 for example, I can group of buildings and press TAB to select different kinds of buildings grouped (between different kinds of military buildings), if this is applied on AoE , I can change between Barracks and an Archery range so I can make spearman/archer quickly. Is there a way to do this here?

    Thank you for any reponse, much appreciated.
