Re: SNOW!!!

Well. We got snow here in South Carolina a few weeks ago... it snowed throughout the day and the temperature went between 40 and 25. So it'd melt, melt, melt then stick for a few minutes and melt, melt, melt again and turned into a big soggy mess. The last time we had snow that stuck was years ago a...

Re: Spanish Semi-FF / Musk rush

Is it just me or does Spain just seem terrible now? Before I quit I could use them somewhat decently but recently I'll play people using Dutch and they'll just absolutely destroy me no matter what I do. If I FF and come at them with goons / lancers then they have halberd/skirms and just eat me alive...

Re: Any French Strats?

Hmm. You mean TEAM Early Skirmishers (Age1 - allows Skirms to be built in Age2) isn't worth the card?

Re: Spanish Semi-FF / Musk rush

It's hard against Russia sometimes. Because a lot of times they get you with raiding or get in your town just quick enough to keep you from aging, even if you are clicking Age at 6:45.

Re: Spanish Semi-FF / Musk rush

Ahh. The reason I came up with the strat was to try and deal with early raiding from cavalry and because musks have decent siege compared to xbows. I figured it seemed worth a try since they are also strong against cavalry. Probably going to scrap the idea. Just wanted to come up with something new ...

Re: Spanish Semi-FF / Musk rush

[quote=""joe4holly""]for the ff- I would send 700 gold rather than 700 food. Food is faster to collect and you aged up with the tower+200 gold so you only need to collect 100 gold if that.Then send 700wood as your 3rd card for rax/stable and houses ect. I wont talk about the 3 vi...

Re: Spanish Semi-FF / Musk rush

Thanks! I'll do that. Right now it needs a lot of work but I do think it's a viable strategy at some point in time. Anyone else? I'd love to hear opinions, even if it's just that it's a crap strat.

Re: Spanish Semi-FF / Musk rush

I'm still testing it and working on it. Just played a game against Russia using one Barracks on GPlains and lost but it took him 20 minutes and I just couldn't muster enough to get him off me. Bad micro and getting my villagers stuck in TC is what got me. I think it has potential though.

Re: Spanish Semi-FF / Musk rush

You could also do it as barracks + stable or just one Barracks.

Spanish Semi-FF / Musk rush

First, a disclaimer. I haven't been around in a while, so feel free to tell me so or help out or whatever. I was tossing around the idea earlier and decided it's a possible to work. Deck is as follows: AGE1 Capitalism Land Grab TEAM Cheap Barracks Colonial Militia AGE2 700 Wood/Food/Gold 4 and 5 Set...

Re: Ghosteh

Thanks everyone. It's much appreciated!

And Crazen, as for the mentor thing. I'd actually love to find someone who could help me with my Spanish game. That seems to be the main civ I'm playing lately other than Otto. I started some with Russia, too, since I got this Suvorov's Reform card.

Hey everyone. I got invited earlier and was still told to make a thread so I could be added as a member on here. I'm Brad and I'm 23 from South Carolina. Been playing AOE3 for about a month and a half now and love it. It's a welcome change of pace from the FPS that I've played competitively for clos...
