Re: Japanese Onin Sohei Hammer

Doesn't it lower the cost of the consulate relations by 75%? That's a total saved of 75 export, which is about 100-125 normal resources. I don't think the consulate is necessary so early in the game...

Re: Navarone_Guy's guide to Japan

Well, that severely weakens your early colonial army, and that's when it matters most. 4 villagers is 400 food worth, right? Food is the most quickly gathered resource, too. 5 ashigaru, on the other hand, is worth 400 food and 200 gold, also bypassing the need for a barracks and train time. I never ...

Re: KingKaramazov conviced me about Monk Disciples

Chaos, the monk/disciple boosting wonder is the way to go for a disciple spam. It's what brings up the monk to 1125 hp and 17 attack.

Re: Japanese Onin Sohei Hammer

Interesting. However, wouldn't it be best to send sohei twice before you send onin war...? And, I wonder why good faith agreements is so good. I'll have to look into it.

Good strategy, though!

Re: KingKaramazov conviced me about Monk Disciples

Taking out the monk is nearly pointless because he has a good 1125 hp in colonial, while his monks are the ones with all the attack and low HP.

Needs an overall nerf.

Re: hidden decknames

Yeah, I also found it kind of odd that they show the cards in a deck but not the deck name... why not hide the whole thing?

Re: The JAM! (by ES_WaCkO_)

I suggest against splitting berry bushes and orchards. Vils task on the orchard and stand there, gathering. They don't move around like when hunting or farming. It's best to just go all on orchards, as there is room for a lot of vils and bumping is not an issue.

Re: The JAM! (by ES_WaCkO_)

Wow... Berry bushes? What an idiot. They run out quickly and gather slowly. Orchards are FAR better. Why not utilize them? Ashigaru are standard. Berry bush gathering as first card? What the hell? 600 wood? How would that help in an ashigaru spam? Why not send 5 ashigaru twice? 4 villagers is also a...

Re: Japanese Shrines

They need a boost, but not a huge one. Shrines are meant to be built all over the map and steal the other guy's hunts. Building them all at home is not a good idea if you're playing rush.

Re: "Last 10 Posts" scroll on home page

Same here... I thought originally I had been demoted to member, but now I realize it's a real issue. Anyway, Craz or Bob are probably temporarily disabling that to restructure the forums or something like that. Then again, it could be a mistake. I guess we'll find out, eh?
