Re: Highlander999 (Aztecs) vs _spritz: Brigadier PR 39 (Dut

That was insane.

Watching it back, you had your 2 SK out before he had his barracks up. What do you think would have happened if you'd gone straight in with them?

Picking up that extra settler was cruicial.

Native Advanced Trade Post

Hey, I'm getting confused. Am I right in saying the native advanced tradepost shipment doesn't give your TP a ranged attack like the euro one does? The description ingame says it does. But I don't think it does in reality. Can anyone confirm this? If I'm right, I'm surprised they didn't correct it w...

Re: Aztec swashbuckle

Just been seeing how the Aztec swashbuckler works vs. a computer. Two things: (1) I tried the swashbuckler attack (with area effect) vs. 3 Polar Bears and it seemed to do a different amount of damage to each. Anyone know why? (2) I tried using the swashbuckler attack in defend mode. It seemed to do ...

Re: bodet (ms) vs captain (germans)

The file type says xrec rather than yrec. Anyway, I'll try changing it to yrec and see what happens.

Re: bodet (ms) vs lt col

The recording goes out of syn on my computer before the end but, potentially you could have won that I reckon. Do accept these pointers from an amature! Same as before, your deck needs Coyote Combat in it. I think the Coyote combat card is more important than the age 3 Coyote upgrade merc shipment e...

Re: lt. col. aztec strat

Yep, nothing wrong with that strat. Pretty optimized. All out LI/HI rush with the SK & WP & WC thrown in too. Nasty.

Re: Sun Tzus attempt at a Fast Forward with Aztec - 4 G Mich

I was only doing it to see just how quickly I could get to fortress with a realistic Aztec strat :). In games, I don't FF. Although I do semi-FF. But, perhaps there is a role for an Aztec FF against a defensive Dutch, Port player, etc. I'm still undecided on that one. From my experience of Aztec age...

Re: LITTLE OSCAR DE LA HOYAS!!!

Sounds like you two had fun! :).

If I remember correctly. Cav does well against Native Scouts. So, if you see your opponent going Scouts just go heavy on Hussar, etc, and the Scout player should really struggle.

Sun Tzus attempt at a Fast Forward with Aztec - 4 G Michael

Following on from General Michael's thread, I tried getting to age 3 ASAP with Aztec vs. a computer. I thought 7:30 was a norm Aztec FF time, however, Aztec surprised me and I was able to do it in 6:41. See recording, details below: Map: Great Plains Starting crates: 4 fd, 2 wd. i.e., +1 fd create u...

Re: buck the tame wolf vs a spanish major

Huggy, please don't post recordings like this. It took me ages to have the common sense *not* to put the warchief card in my deck and there you go tempting me.

Btw, gg.

Re: Best FF ?

Aztec FF is the best.

It's stengths are: (1) it's sneakily slow, and, (2) when you get there, your opponent expects you to have artillery or merc shipments and again, sneakily, Aztec have none.

Go Aztecs!

Small things can make Huge differences

Just played an Aztec Mirror against a Major. Both of us used our WPs to treasure collect. He played 3 Settlers and I played High Priest of Ixtlilton (WP upgrade). I aged with the Messenger and he aged with the 2 SK ageup. I spotted him building a forward WH with 3 of his settlers. I went straight on...
