    The Lord of the Rings by Marcknop. One of the best scenarios from HD that should be remade in DE. (More Screenshots in the comments)

    Got to 1.2k Elo spamming Indians :D

    Posted: 04 Mar 2021 08:51 AM PST

    Every single game is someone tryharding with Franks - figured going for the best camel civ (arguable) was the best bet. I've tried defending against Frankish knights with pikes and monks; it never works. It's kind of like a psychological thing I guess - the moment they see camels they stop going all-in on knights. the villager bonus is actually pretty great too in castle age when you're trying to fight + boom. the only game I lost was against a Hun player who went all-in on knights, had more than my camels (+ skirms), and destroyed me.
    So yeah, hurray for Indians!

    Just played my first game of AoE2 ever!

    Posted: 03 Mar 2021 09:50 AM PST

    Been playing Age of Empires for 20 years and have never played online despite playing off and on all these years. I was always worried about whether I would play well against people even though I play League of Legends and WoW daily. After watching t90 this past year I finally worked up the courage to play a ranked 1v1 match and won.

    I hope to be playing some more ranked with you all now that I finally got over the hump.

    Am I toxic for constantly Hoanging?

    Posted: 03 Mar 2021 07:53 PM PST

    Lately I've been alternating between two cheese strats: Hoanging (Celts 1 TC siege/monk/knights push) for when I get Arabia, and 1 TC Aztec siege/monk/eagle push for Arena. The other day I beat a guy twice in a row with the same Celts strat and he got really upset. He didn't GG the first game (nbd), and the second game he told me "It's people like you that destroy gaming communities." For the record I didn't talk shit or anything, I just lied and said "I'm gonna 4 TC boom this time," so maybe that's what upset him.

    I blew him off as being a butthurt sore loser, but it did kinda get to me. I know it can be stressful to defend against an all-in siege push, but not always. Sometimes I actually enjoy defending this sort of push, but I suppose that's only if I win. So am I an asshole for Hoanging?

    How to scout rush

    Posted: 04 Mar 2021 08:00 AM PST

    It seems everytime I try a scout rush by the time I arrive at the enemy base they are full walled, how do I overcome this. And secondly how many scouts do I make before going in?

    What’s your favorite sound effect in AOE2?

    Posted: 04 Mar 2021 02:46 AM PST

    Just what the title says. Curious what sounds people most enjoy in this game where we hear a lot of them a whole lot of times.

    In no particular order, my favorites are:

    -Selecting a Scorpion or Heavy Scorpion

    -The relaxing sound of a whole bunch of Lumberjacks and Miners working away

    -The Siege Ram attack sound. You can tell this is no amateur ram just from the sound.

    Do you consider walling enemy’s resources a valid strategy?

    Posted: 04 Mar 2021 08:45 AM PST

    I was playing against someone who walled my res the other day, but was lucky that they were too committed and sacrificed their own eco so I won. But let's say they just sneak one vil, and you're so unlucky you never catch it until it's too late. How do you counter it? If you can at all.

    I find this strat extremely annoying. If doing it right, they only need to sacrifice one vil, but it causes so much idle time for you, plus the res you put to take down the wall (not to mention you wouldn't have much res).

    Why was Persian's dark age TC bonus removed?

    Posted: 04 Mar 2021 05:49 AM PST

    Last time I checked Persians had a 5 percent boost in dark age but it was removed some months ago I guess. Why was it removed? They are in the bottom half in play rate and win rate now and that 5 percent doesn't seem too broken

    Which Historical Battle maps were redesigned lately?

    Posted: 04 Mar 2021 12:12 AM PST

    Mistakenly clicked through to launch the Bapheus scenario in the Historical Battles and saw the map had been redesigned.

    The 3 Turk factions and the Byzantines were more evenly distributed around the map instead of the Byzantines just occupying the north. The central plateau that the player is generally assumed to occupy and wall off has been redrawn. Now the player needs to visit a stable (home farm) of Osman where they start building.

    Part of me welcomes the changes, another part frowns at my itch to replay all the redesigned maps now.

    What other maps have been redesigned in the past few months? I can't seem to find any mention of them in the content updates all the way back to version 39284.

    Tell me your meme strats you've tried recently so we can all have a laugh

    Posted: 04 Mar 2021 01:55 AM PST

    We tried a meme strat in a TG the other night where we had to build every building, including our starting TCs (nomad start), so they were connected to another building. It was hilarious trying to get to woodlines, place farms etc.

    Of course we didn't recognise our opponents names as they were Chinese characters but when we checked afterwards we discovered it was Vivi, Jibatong and a couple of others. It made the supremacy vills killing our TCs and castles make more sense.

    Idle vils

    Posted: 04 Mar 2021 05:13 AM PST

    Does anyone else think that the pandemics effects on the economy over the last year has been analogous to too many idle vils in aoe2?

    An over simplification for sure, but just wondering if this though has crossed the minds of others.

    noob question

    Posted: 04 Mar 2021 08:48 AM PST

    When you're playing a ranked game it gives you the option to pick for random civs. But which icon means which? Like there's a box with a ? in it. Am I choosing random civs if it shows that, or if it shows it with the red line on it?

    Massive lag in single player.

    Posted: 04 Mar 2021 08:33 AM PST

    I have no idea what the issue is but my game has been very choppy. I'm playing on low graphic settings, but my computer should be able to run the game properly even on max settings. And ideas what the issue is?

    Little known AoE fact of the day :)

    Posted: 03 Mar 2021 06:45 PM PST

    Little known AoE fact of the day :)

    Cataphracts are left-handed ... also they have a shield, which they never use! >.<

    See for yourself in-game - they swing their sword from the other hand compared to, say, knights.

    Paladins shield must be arm-strapped, else they'd not have a hand to control their horse

    Just a little thing I guessed even many long time players may never have noticed. Have a nice day! :)
