Weaknesses
Everyone has their weaknesses in-game.
Post here what you think your biggest weakness in games is.
Do you overboom too much? Do you have trouble with vill distribution at any point?

Re: Weaknesses
I have problems identifying danger in AoE3. For example, sometimes I don't pay attention to when my vills are getting massacred by german sword-weilding hooligans on horseback. And usually it's somebody else who has to say "dude, get back you nub".
Re: Weaknesses
Biggest problem is to watch my Vills i think. Sometimes i walk into stupid battles i can't win.

Re: Weaknesses
I never understand when is a good time to attack in a teamgame. When I usually say attack, we lose a lot of guys

Re: Weaknesses
Lategame macro and miscalculating strats when playing civs I'm not used to. My boom sucks unless I got vill cards or I play boom civs too.
Re: Weaknesses
I find that I tend to play aggressive almost all the time, and lose my army more then a few times in battles that should not have taken place where/when they should.

Re: Weaknesses
All I have to say is early game army. If I do not get attacked early on and I suspect that you are booming i stop making guys and try to boom and then I sometimes get nailed by the other guys massive army and lose
Re: Weaknesses
My biggest flaw is my router... dropping 50% of games atm...
Re: Weaknesses
Pushing bad attacks too far, and then retreating with so few guys that they all get killed on the way out anyway.
Re: Weaknesses
Just an initial top 10:
1. Not having a map specific strategy
2. Running a one deck suits all plan
3. Inefficient food collection which slows time to age 2
4. Incorrect allocation of villagers
5. Bad building placement
6. Not pressing advantage when I win a battle
7. Not using explorer properly after early age 2
8. Not booming hard enough middle/late game
9. Bad troop choice/micro late game
10. Failure to remember late game upgrades - arsenal anybody?
Mainly though, rubbish scouting is my worst weakness!!

Re: Weaknesses
My mid-game boom with certain civs.
I find it "difficult" to get 3 TC's down in some situations to keep good vil production going.

Re: Weaknesses
My main problm is getting that early rush. For some reason I become nervous and misclick, ruining my micro. Ship wrong cards and generally suck. If u atack me after 9-10 mins then Ill manage better. This is where Sportings skills truly come into play. I simply cant be as agressive as he is so ealry, nor can I defend properley that early.
