Spain vs. Russia

Post by 36drew »

Spain vs Russia!
FP 1.2!

Pretty deecent game IMO. And IMO if crusi had played more recently and more on patch, it was nothing but his to win. At any rate I go for cav start followed by musk spam, then 6+6 rods and rod spam. Why rods? I thought for sure that he was going to start mixing in coss like crazy any minute but I guess I was wrong! I loose the first big fight to dual blockhouse infantry spam. I don't have many hunts. Just enough to go age iii, then age iv! Then it's chase around the map with revolt! He decides to start sieging my shipment points with opris. And in the end he gets housed, though perhaps it wouldn't have mattered!

GG!

Very nice game but why you want to put in so many rods for coss sinds you make huss/musk??? if you maked a mass of musk from it you kinda have the same only the musk can fight well against his musk and rods can't

I'm gonna watch it. I just hope my pc works for just one single time.

EDIT: ok my pc allowed me to watch to record. Why didn't that guys kill your last tower, or have I missed you killing this oprinchicks? Very nice game indeed.

That mistake is what made the game so interesting. :) But you are right that it was 100% the wrong decision.

The reason for this is that there were other imbalances that had much greater implications than revolution. Like russia's instant inf, how about instant curs? Remember that? Or 20 range goons, etc. Once those things get nerfed, things that are OP, but not as badly OP show up.

It was even stronger then, because Ottoman still had the silk road thingie and nobody expected it. I beat a lot of higher ranked players with it then, I was pr 21-22 and even some captains fell for it.

I did revolt in the past and i am still revolting until they nerf it. Beat a better player with is this weekend and when I checked on ESo I saw he starting revolting to the next games,lol

If your doing straight revolt any fast rush I guess.

Once they have revolted I would hid emy army and settlers as long as possible and keep on spamming unit. if you can beat his first mass, game is over.

Unless he's on the sea,lol

Otto and spain revolts are super broken, they should have boosted colonial militia overall and make the imperial hus guard hus(gardener hus in case of otto).
