    Keyboard recommendations

    Hopefully I am not breaking any rule, any Keyboard recommendations? I want one for my laptop so I can play smoothly. Better if the brand sponsors AoE tournaments or players.

    Question about Chu Ko Nu

    Posted: 28 Oct 2020 11:34 PM PDT

    Consistently when I'm microing CKNs, for example firing a volley, then moving, then firing another volley, the second volley will be much, much weaker than the first one. For example, the first might take out all of a paladin's HP but the second will do 10% damage at most.

    I suspect that this is related to the multiple projectiles. Maybe when you interrupt an attack before an Elite CKN has fired all 5 projectiles, then on the second volley they will finish firing the remaining (low damage) projectiles instead of starting a "new" attack.

    Wondering if anyone else has noticed this.

    Playing as Goths

    Posted: 29 Oct 2020 07:32 AM PDT

    New-ish player here, I have been playing the campaigns on easy and now I just completed the Alaric (Goth) campaign. Since it was on easy I haven't had too much challenge beating the AI but I just don't feel all that comfortable with my victories.

    • My Kill/Death ratio is much worse than usual, it's only around 1:1, and at best 4:3.
    • Since K/D ratio isn't good, I'm spamming units like many have said, but this doesn't feel sustainable? I know Goths get a discount and are supposed to have good eco, but still...
    • Challenges to micro-ing and unit counters because I'm spamming units and they are getting in each others ways, my Champions took a lot of damage and have already killed the Cataphracts and my Halbs still haven't reached the AI enemy cavalry unit.

    Discuss? I suppose it doesn't matter as long as I win, but resources eventually run out...

    ​

    Side comment: I really enjoy how using different civs in campaigns are not only familiarizing me with new units but also forcing me to play with different styles and strategies and adapting to new mouse/keyboard shortcuts.

    What unit composition to prepare?

    Posted: 29 Oct 2020 04:36 AM PDT

    I played a mirrored game as Ethiopians. My opponent did archers and skirms in feudal, as did I. Going up to castle I see they made 2 stables and siege at home, so I assumed knights were coming with either mangonel or scorps. I made pike and kept making archers. They ended up doing knights + crossbows + ram, which naturally obliterated my army.

    What should I have made in this scenario? I don't want to just mass crossbows, as that 1 unit comp could be easily destroyed if he went knights + skirms, or knights + siege. Switching to knights + crossbows sounds good, but I think they would have the upper hand in production since they planned on going with that comp whereas I was delayed since I had to scout his stables first. Additionally, Ethiopian knights aren't great, but I guess in a mirror match that's irrelevant.

    Do you think it's a safe bet to always start with crossbows + knights when in doubt of what's being made? Knights can take care of skirms/siege, and the crossbows everything else. Maybe more importantly, are there notable times to avoid going crossbows + knights?

    What's your favourite streamer and why?

    Posted: 29 Oct 2020 06:05 AM PDT

    Hey AoE gang, As I'm grinding my skill with AI, I also love watching streams on other screen, King of Dessert tournament was epic to watch but its over so I was wondering who is your favourite streamer and why? Im looking for mid skill level streamer who is interacting with his viewers and actually reads the chat. Good personality and friendly. Looking to pick one and support him. English speaking is mandatory.

    Looking forward hearing your choices.

    P. S. Popularity of streamer is irrelevant. Thanks

    The Fastest Game Against Hoang (6:22)

    M@A's into Archers Question

    Posted: 29 Oct 2020 07:34 AM PDT

    Is it better to build 3 militia or 4 when executing this build? I have been working on this build for a while now and typically use it as flank in team games. I can pull off 4 militia pretty effectively (for my elo range) when I play as Mayans but as I start trying out other archer civs the build is a bit tighter without the mayan privilege. Is the extra militia firepower typically worth it, or is it better to make the standard 3 which gives you more flexibility to save the 60 food allowing for smoother vill production in early feudal as you are getting farms going?
