N3O Age Of Empires and Starcraft 2 Clan

This was a really interesting game to watch. Drew, if you're still watching this thread, I was wondering: What made you decide to just let him take out your barracks and (I think) house while you waited behind your TC? Was it just that you knew that that was all he would be able to do? Like, it boug...

I'm curious how people micro their falconets. Specifically I am thinking of early Fortress with 2 falconets, when both armies are mostly a mix of ranged infantry. Do you select one, then shift-click down the row of infantry, select the other, and shift-click a different set? Do you alternate shift-c...

I'm not an especially experienced player, but I've been trying to figure out why they decided the nerfs to Spain's Rod & Lancer cards was necessary. I think it's safe to say we were all suprised by the changes. I'm thinking that these were a secondary balance issue, that came up as a result of t...

Was the Spain nerf expected? They really jacked the Rod & Lancer cards!

ruminator - to be honest, i've never actually done it, but my understanding is that the fastest way to get the max XP for a game is to do a 1v1, fast speed, start in post-industrial, boom till you have 99 settlers, then put everyone on wood and constantly build and destroy plantations. Every plantat...

ruminator, shizle . . . I need to level a TAD civ too. Maybe if I see either of you on this weekend we can play an XP plantation game or two?

Short Version: I've enjoyed The Sarah Connor Chronicles, check it out! Long Version: I don't watch a lot of TV since I only get whatever comes over the air. But I tend to wind up at least checking out anything Sci-Fi-ish that gets put on the major networks. So, the past two TV seasons Lost and Heroe...

Do you mind explaining why archaic training is considered so much better? I'm a fairly new player so I'm just thinking of it from a numbers perspective. Maybe there is some key strategy issues that I am missing. Perhaps I'm underestimating how critical waiting an extra 13.5 seconds for your first wa...

I've never played played a team game yet, but I am hoping to get in on some N3O team action tonight. So, I've never really bothered grabbing any of the team cards for my civilization, which is Spain. (Side note: I don't have a lot of time to play online, so I'm focusing on getting Spain up to level ...

So the other night was able to catch some officers online and get added to the clan, and they invited me to a multiplayer game,(Thanks!) but I was having problems joining. (Bummer!) I tinkered with my router a bit and hopefully I have it working now, we'll see. I should be able to get on for a coupl...

I'm another new member who would like to play some team games. I'll be on the lookout next weekend.

Thanks for the welcome, guys!

@BashUGood: I live in the D.C. area actually.

@djan: The company I work for provides a secure messaging system for banks, and I test internal software we create before it goes "live".

First Name: Matt ESO Name: Puddleglum Why I'd like to join N3O: I found out about N3O through Cyclohexane's excellent guides, and N3O seems like just the thing I have been looking for. I'm a husband and a father, so I don't have tons of time for gaming, and I don't know many other gamers. When I do ...
