Nice explanation of the control group "QR codes" hehehe

A question for A-drongo - what PC setup are do you use? would be great to see a spec review and maybe you could talk about why you picked what? - video idea?

Amazing guide thx!

Guys I know it goes in the face of every rts that has come before but just use F1 and Tab. You won't lose any buildings. You free u a control group if you have a way to use all ten of them. I wish I could have more control groups. I use a 12 thumb button mouse for everything. But that control group trick is really cool.

7 wins in a row. after practicing for a few runs and getting the build order internalised... havoc it is!

This is why I love Drongo!

After getting beaten by the Intermediate AI for so many times now, I defeated them on the first try. Looks like the only mistake I was doing is to not make use of the best strategies with each Civilisation. Feels so good now.

how do you blueprint your building without moving a villager like that ?

is it still up to date this song dynasty rush etc? or did it gotten nerfed over time?

Pls do more of these 😎👍 So nice to know what ppl are likely to play and exploit it 😇

This still good in season 7? If so ,do I delay the IO like what we’re doing now.

by 8minutes, HRE all in is already swarming you with MAA, Archers & Rams w/ full blacksmith upgrade LOL

Been practicing this... For the opening part, how do you prevent your vill from building the mill instead of killing the sheep? Even hovering over the sheep it turns into a build icon. Sometimes I have to pull the sheep out a bit just to make this reliably work

@janmzb

Жыл бұрын

The hitbox of the sheep and the mill is sadly not that great, try zooming in or move the sheep a little bit.

So I get not having the Mill out by the berries but what about putting the mill on the berry side of the tc? Wouldn’t that get the same effect with the IO but also make berry walk time shorter and also supervised?

@orioncampbell4744

Жыл бұрын

In this case it's about the resource of time, you want as close to 0 seconds walk time as possible in order to make the timing work on the dynasty boost to villager production as well as access to the zhuge nu. Ideally for this build you want a straggler located right in front of your base where villagers spawn, if not you are going for the nearest straggler to your villagers and if berries are adjacent that's a bonus.

Nice build here

My tip for you, when you play HRE: Scout their base as much as possible, and watch for fast castle (if they have a lot of villagers early in feudal, you can often guess the will go early age 3). Go age 3 yourself, and get crossbowmen.

Can you explain how IOs prioritize tax pickups? If you play pocket ecos, do you do anything special to make sure your IOs only pick up tax from buildings close to home?

@kai-xuanyao4666

You're only really afraid of mangonels. They won't have more than 10 MAA by 11 minutes if they go fast castle, and 30 zhugenu can deal with that ez pz. If they go knights they get rekt by spears. Not a single civ can go fast castle and afford a mangonel with any units to support it. You have to be fast with your build order though, if you drag it along to 13-14 mins mark you'll lose.

how do you deduct 1 vil from a hot key group?

You should leave 1 tile between mill and TC. Otherwise its more likely that villagers may return food to TC. Also mill without 1 tile between is slightly more vulnerable vs ranged attacks, but if you leave 1 tile between mill and TC you leave small safe space which can still be utilized as protected area and its less likely to deliver food into TC which is big no no. It can still happen with 1 tile between the TC and Mill but less likely. Obviously a lot depends on other factors if mill can be threatened but I found that leaving the 1 tile is just easier and better. Also placing Villager far away from TC leaves it vulnerable to harass which results you either losing it or losing wood to repair it. ITs better for village to hug the tc

@flyingjetbr

Жыл бұрын

You should use Village as a garrison point when you expand (like near berries or behind woodline, as shown on this video, or maybe on your stone if you're going for 2nd TC), also if it's close to TC you will probably waste space on the Academy. Regarding the empty space, that's why you want to reposition the sheep to the other side, so it should never be an issue. It's actually way more likely that you will drop off at TC if you leave a space and try to farm the sheep between the mill and TC (safer, as you suggest) If your Villages are getting destroyed, you probably needed them to save your villagers anyway (because it means you're under fire, not having the village would mean more walking distance for your villagers)

@crazygreip

Жыл бұрын

@@flyingjetbr Yes I do know why he places village further ahead, but its much easily subject of taken down or damaged, which hurts economy and isn't worth of risk. If you're so worried about influence of IA then you can delete village in later game if you desire to use the spot for something else. Its better be safe early on than use resources to repair village or lose it because its much easier to lose especially when facing ranged based comp with potential ram or torch dmg. If village is hugging TC it can't be taken down without rams or armored units and even then you can repair it while instantly hopping back to TC. Mill without 1 tile distance is subject to any ranged raids. You're actually 3 tiles away from TC and TC fire range is like 7 or 8 tiles which leaves you vulnerable to normal archer attacks also it leaves sheep vulnerable and if player is capable they just kill the sheep on that spot and denies your food. If you place it 1 tile away and stack sheep properly then it won't deliver into TC and is completely protected. Also interaction with mill, vills and TC for dropping off is weird because even if the mill is actually closer, but villager is somewhat in weird position it delivers it into TC and with mill being hugging the TC and if you need safer food you need to move the sheep to sideways which results more likely vills delivering food into TC. As someone who plays Song into FC and got very similar methods. Even tho I play 2v2, but the way I have done things are experienced that I had when facing aggressive plays or pokes and these measures ensures that I can reach FC with song with pro scouts without and hinder and timing I hit castle is around 8-830min mark. Also for example because I go pro scouts everygame and start with 2 scout I can ensure 2 deer camps or more under the first mill and completely protected. Usually my BBQ covers mill too because its always between gold and TC and usually also woodline too.
