    Shoutout to the Devs!!!

    Posted: 12 Apr 2021 10:24 AM PDT

    Thank you so much to the Dev team for putting together an awesome Age of Empires Fan Event last Saturday! I love all of the hype around all of the new AoE content and am excited that they are putting so much effort into making AoE IV successful. Everyone will have their thoughts on what they liked or disliked about the various announcements, but how can you not be stoked about something?!? I remember playing AoE in high school and hearing that Ensemble Studios would be shutting down and thinking that it would be the end of a franchise that I loved so much.

    I visited the merch store for the first time and had to pick up an AOE IV beer stein afterwards to support my drinking...err Age of Empires habit (https://gear.xbox.com/collections/age-of-empires/products/age-of-empires-iv-limited-edition-personalized-stein). Aussie_Drongo and I have been talking about starting Age of Empires Addicts Anonymous (AoEAA). See you guys on the ladder!

    Why US is a bad civ (disclaimer: I’ve never played the civ)

    Posted: 12 Apr 2021 10:57 PM PDT

    Im talking about supremacy (not treaty) 1v1.

    US age up options suck. In age two, you only get things that are worth about 200 resources. Sure you unlock cards but they are not strong enough to compensate the reduced age up bonus. Your age three options are not good as well because you don't have an option to age up fast, unless you dedicate a shipment in colonial just to age up fast... Also your age three armies suck because your only upgraded units are sharpshooter, carbine cavalry and Gatling guns. You have to upgrade everything else. You have to manually upgrade hussars to get decent age three hand cav while French or Spanish get upgraded cavs... sure it's better than Brit, Japan or Russia but they can boom or rush better.

    US lack the capability to effectively rush or boom. Their colonial rush is not good because it's slow. They age up slow and the lack of good age up options makes them even slower. US also lacks good military shipments (like cav). The option to boom is limited. Sure your age one eco is probably the best because you can get something like 3cdb +bank in age one. But in age two your only viable options to boom is Pennsylvania+Meeting house card coin trickle which is about four vills. And Irish vills after five mins (another four vills). So you can send four vills twice and you can get market techs for free if you send another card but most civs can boom quicker and better! And don't tell me about Cree Cdbs or setter wagons they take ages to pay off (especially because you use a shipment and actually have to pay for them rather than get them for free). Age three Factory is nice but it's not that strong when you compare it with shipments like eight vills or even seven vills that are available for other civs. Also it is highly doubtful that the US can get away with that card after slow age up.

    Also Regular seems pretty weak because their cost is almost the same as Sepoy or Janissary (in villager seconds), but their health is as low as normal musketeers. Sure you have more range and better melee attack but that cannot stop your musks from dying from ranged attacks...

    Overall I'm looking forward to playing that civ!!!

    How long to complete the 50 state challenge?

    Posted: 12 Apr 2021 07:23 AM PDT

    I'm curious if anyone knows how long the 50 state challenge will run for. I know it opens on April 13, how long do players have to complete it? For me personally, I wont be able to start the challenges until April 14. I'm going to spaz out so hard if i get to the second to last day and the challenge closes because there was an arbritary cap on the length and you had to have started on April 13.

    Question regarding US civ tomorrow.

    Posted: 12 Apr 2021 12:29 PM PDT

    Is the new US civ available to play tomorrow? Or do we have to complete the challenges first? If we miss 1 or 2 challenges, does it mean that we have to buy the civilization? So will the us civ be unlocked temporarily ?

    Thanks in advance.

    1.1k HP on Wakina rifle? How?

    Posted: 12 Apr 2021 12:06 PM PDT

    Noobie here, I was in a treaty game where the opposing team had 1.1k HP on their wakina rifles and I think 4k HP on their explorer. How did they do that?

    I don't play the civilization, but I would like to start.

    Chinese Event Progress Gone

    Posted: 12 Apr 2021 01:46 PM PDT

    Back in the Lunar New Year event, I did all the challenges and got all the pictures, as well as someprogress on the cosmetic side of my home city. I left the game for a while and came back the other day, and it's all gone, with my home city back down to level 1...

    Has anyone else had this problem? Not a gameplay problem but still pretty frustrating!

    How long is the US Challenge event available?

    Posted: 12 Apr 2021 11:12 AM PDT

    Hi all,

    So how long will it be there for?

    I only ask because I may have to be out of town for a bit in between. So if I don't play everyday, am I screwed?

    Unfortunately my laptop was not able to run DE, so I am back to Vanilla/TAD, wondering if the multi-player community is still active on those versions? Thank you so much
