    When you use your settlers to fight underneath your Town Center to prevent it from being destroyed so your military shipment can arrive.

    Tips for playing against Sweden

    Posted: 14 Dec 2020 02:56 PM PST

    I've seen a lot of people on here complaining about Sweden. Most people are complaining about their torps being OP.

    I've yet to lose a 1v1 against Sweden, I actually find them to be the easiest matchup. I've beaten them on several different civs. French, Portugal, Ottoman, Lakota are my most common. There's a few things you need to understand:

    1.Don't try to fast fortress against them on any civ except possibly Ottoman.

    Your mid game eco will not be able to match theirs. If you let them freely spam 20 torps across the map while you FF, it doesn't matter that you have access to Fortress age units or more town centers. They will pressure you with 20 torps worth of food/coin/wood. By the time these torps run out of resources, they will have already wiped you out.

    Ottoman is the one exception because their vill count grows way too slow in Age 2 to keep up with Sweden, but they can FF in 5-6 minutes, and access to 3 town centers is huge for them to pop off.

    If you go FF ottoman route, 2 falconet shipment is key to pressure them. FF quickly, get your 2 extra TC's down ASAP. Do not FI, that will enable them to either FI or finish you off before your economy starts picking up. You need to start denying torps quick or they will get too big. By now they probably have barracks down so expect a fight.

    2.Pressure them early, but don't commit to TC. You might feel pressured to rush their base head on. But good Sweden players can counter that. The TC has 6500 health, 10 villagers inside gives 90 damage, and they can send minutemen + 5 caroleans from a barracks in the back + 8 crossbows or 2 leather cannons to stop you.

    Instead, look for mines near their base and start taking out torps. Kill villagers you run into. Keep training settlers nonstop during this time, but also continue to pressure their base.

    If your opponent is smart, they will ship leather cannons, start amassing caroleans, and then try to challenge you with carloeans guarding cannons from cav. You should have a couple minutes of free reign before this because your opponent will have shipped Blueberries+ironworks first. If it looks like an unfavorable fight just back off before you lose units and strike elsewhere. Or if you force them to ship military rathe than ironworks, you're slowing them down.

    I've yet to lose the matchup with this strat. I think most people are losing because they either do an all in rush that fails(and they get out-eco'd), or they try to outboom them/fast fortress and also fail.

    Online Multiplayer - Game Freeze Help!

    Posted: 14 Dec 2020 06:00 PM PST

    Very commonly when I play online games, my game freezes and I have to end the process to get out. I can still move around the map and click on things but all actions have frozen.

    This felt like it got better for a little while but after another patch it goes back to doing it nightly. I'd say probably 2/3 of games this happens.

    My computer should be fine from a RAM and processor perspective to run the game. My only issue is with my graphics card but I've worked around that.

    Is there anything I can do to fix this or help lower the amount that it happens? Hoping for something similar to going to task manager and setting a high priority (which I'm not sure that helps)

    Thank you

    How can I gather Torp berries

    Posted: 14 Dec 2020 05:30 PM PST

    I just played a game in which my Russians revolted to Finland. There are 2 home city cards that let my blockhouses spawn recources. I can gather the wood from the Finnish Taiga card but I couldn't figure out how to gather from the berry bushes spawned by the Blackbarries card.

    I know the Swedes have torps that gather the berries automatically but my blockhouses are still blockhouses even though they got this berry feature with the revolution.

    Can someone help?

    Silly me couldn't tell the difference between a Strelet and a Karelian Jäger.

    Looking for videos/posts with some fighting tutorials. ( Treaty )

    Posted: 14 Dec 2020 11:09 AM PST

    I suck at fights. I can get the booming stage right and get all of the needed resources for the rest of the match but when the fighting start and I'm against a similarly skilled opponent I am just getting steamrolled. We can have the same unit with the same upgrades and I will lose 80% of the time. I am looking for some tutorials on how to fight in this game.

    Bug on Ottoman and Indian Monitor Sails

    Posted: 14 Dec 2020 09:39 AM PST

    I have realized that there is a bug on the updated Ottoman and Indian Monitor sails. during the damage/destruction phase it turns to the original texture. Do the devs look here for bug fixing?

    Couldn't find info on this online. Thanks.

    Pausing on multiplayer

    Posted: 14 Dec 2020 05:32 AM PST

    Can we have a limit on this? Or just take put the feature. I didn't even know we could do it but played a game where my opponent paused and was away for about half an hour. I just resigned after that although I was winning,I'm not waiting about for that long.

    Why is pausing in the game?

    Posted: 14 Dec 2020 05:28 PM PST

    I find the ability to pause and online game stupid, this is not a Lan Party, people have stuff to do and no one should be made to wait for you to finish whatever got in your way of playing. If you had inminent stuff to do, you shouldn't have started a match. And if something just happened to show up, just go do it quick and come back, or just resign. Pauses should be for tournaments or lan parties only, not for randoms to use.

    Also, FIFTEEN pauses PER player? That's insane for a game whose matches last for 20 minutes avg. Plus, why even have them? It's extremely common for someone to pause, only to get unpaused immediately after while they are away taking care of stuff, defeating the entire purpose.

    I don’t like lag

    Posted: 14 Dec 2020 07:47 AM PST

    Getting thrashed and having your city burned to the ground is so much better than someone lagging out and never knowing how the game could have turned out
