The most gravely laugh came from me at this moment

I can tell you after watching this game i even became a Cataphract

"Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden! Spear shall be shaken, shield shall be splintered, a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now, ride now, ride! Ride for ruin and the world's ending! Death! Death! Death! Forth Eorlingas!"

That's what the cataphracts charge feels like, even if it was based on polish hussars instead of byzantine cataphracts.

One of the best Meme-able games I've ever seen, the Cataphract line formation was like mass Hussars, the secret pass was Thermopylae, and the trampling of entire armies was the charge of the Rohirrim ! Awesome !

Love how the guy at the end was so oblivious he didn't even realize it was a 1v1

Straight up war crimes at 26:08 ! 🤣🤣

48:00 -Thermopylae with Cataphracts... nasty!

The ending flank through the woods reminds me of the goat trial in 300.

Green, green whats your problem green!

“Even the king was coming to help.” Had me laughing during lunch break!!

Mix in some scouts with trapezites for boosted torch dmg burn down much faster!

I can't wait to play this game in 2 years when I get a good computer

Aussie, when you go mass cav with Bzy you have to always go Hippodrome. The ability you get from it is what makes has Cav with the Byz possible since they don't get a charge attack. You also have to go Cistern landmark also for the healing flask. If you go Merc then go the other two landmarks

that moment when the pathfinding takes on the role of Ephialtes. . Nightmare indeed

26:36 were all gonna be safe! were all gonna have a good time! what in the jesus christ was that! "Drongo decimating both sides of a foreign conflict."

I wonder if spear + hand cannoneer would really counter mass cataphracts - even a half decent player with minor micro would send the cataphracts to charge through the spearmen into the back line of HC and destroy them. That AoE dmg + their survivability would be really interesting to see. Spear+HC's definitely slaughter mass knights but the cata's charge might be the difference. Guess it'd be an eco race to see who could sustain the constant re-maxing of their army. I bet the spear+HC would win in the long run but it'd be a slog for sure.

Poor purple, oblivious to everything going on in the game then bam a tsunami at his gates.

Drongo playing my strategy I use since byz release in ffas just does it all 50x faster. Even full map house spam! Only scout mixed in for extra torch damage missing. Gotta love it!

6:40 Not sure if you were mistaken or just misspoke, but the Grand Winery doesn't give an accelerated gather rate, just extra olive oil. Still useful if you're planning on selling the oil to get to castle, but kinda weird choice given you were planning on massing cav.

Every time I watch these I really want to play FFA, but on the other hand, I'm also really sh!t lol Never really actually played against anyone other than AI at least since AoE2 when we'd "hack" the school computers in the 90s & early 2000s then install AoE1,2 & WC3 or AoM on the school system to play against each other.

Bro u were a monster this game💀💀💀

@0:55you might have been able to wall in pink’s king. Though I’m not sure if the time and res would be worth it 🤔

Anyone know how to use monarchs ability (sprint and seeing where other kings are) on Xbox?

guess what? max out your pop with army means business 😂

What hotkeys do you use? I think you are wasd - ing to move the screen around.

SPEARMEN + HANDCANNONEER DO NOT COUNTER CATAPHRACTS! PERIOD! I tested it multiple times, because I love 4-8 player matches and lategame parties. Cataphracts are too op in lategame!

And I was wondering, where that red king went - I guess purple found him after all...

As a Byzantine main, not using the Olive oil for mercenaries and instead selling it for gold never occurred to me. This makes late game so much better when you run short on gold.

so much skill ! lol

so stroooonkk byzantines booming

How do you use King's ability on console

What if I told you you can make another unit to support your cataphracts

What’s the song Drongo tends to hum when he’s doing his dark age attacks?
