Re: China Players

I was hoping for a bit more from the latest fan patch notes. China are still too weak vs cav. Pike need an HP boost and while Keshik got an HP boost they had an armour nerf so not much of a boost overall. They do no real damage to anything at all - I think even settlers and envoys beat them in a fig...

Re: Rolerdos what's the use?

They are basically pikes that trade higher speed for lower siege. I tried to use them, but its far easier to go xbow/pike due to them needing gold. Also, I struggle to accept that fact that xbows beat rods in melee - this is just plain nuts as they are supposed to be melee specialists. I think they ...

Re: How to "Rebuild"?

In a team game, especially 3 v3 or more, get your team mates to tribute you enough wood for a new t/c.

Re: Town Destroyer

Any decent player looks to micro and take down the WC early anyway, due to the aura boost for the surrounding troops. It's a good card, sure, but only where you can keep your WC alive ...

Maybe worth a try as first card vs a FB with 5 toma BB in support!

Re: Ventrilo and me!

Thanks. I've checked the intergoogle as well and there may be a problem with vista 64 compatability. This was supposedly sorted with SP1 but something to check when I get home ...

Ventrilo and me!

Just bought a new USB mic and unsure if it works or not, the settings keep resetting to my old 3.5 mic port. So if you see me on Vent and I don't answer, I'm not being rude I'm just having set up issues!

Re: Mic problems

Go to "sound" via control panel and check Mike sound levels that way - see if you can tick the +20Db sound box. If you do have a crap mike (like me), then I would suggest buying a new one. I've just ordered a new Logitech desk mike as I only want the mike and not headphones. I need to be a...
