    Solder wants to blame the game, but honestly, he just got outclassed with normal in-game mechanics, he just didn't have the brains to contend with it.
    Brittany didn't hack or cheat in any way, soldier is just a big baby.

      @@doppelstarker5915 5 - 10 Spies vs 50 mercs is really not gonna get the job done. especially with the amount of hp the stadiots had and the 40% meelee resist of the corsairs. But it does indeed work, popping 20 spies from hiding smack bang into a player's merc musket/jeager line fucks it right up. Soldier just litterally made the bare minumum and then revealed them early and made them suicide run into the corsairs.

    I very much enjoy these casted games! I feel like sometimes you are maybe not looking at the more important things or missing something (like for example, it would have been interesting to switch to SoldieRs view in the beginning to see if his hunt was equally far away), but it gives these videos a sort of lightheartedness if that's a word. Other than that I really enjoy your commentary as it's very colourful and excited! Love the series in general

    I wish there was more love for melee units like for example more speed upgrades for other civs and/or passive that makes them move faster for a short period of time (maybe when they're close to enemy units, so they can intercept nearby units). I loved zealots with charge ability in StarCraft 2. I'm just so tired of seeing skirm + dragoons 90% of time.

    Really can't fight german merc strat without assassins card or unlimited gatling gun rounds from America. Also that's the 2nd luckiest RNG for tavern (jaeger being the 1st). You rarely get stradiots in it.
    I had lil bombard and napoleon guns once, didn't even bother to finish the game. The cost was just astronomical.

    • @Toonrick12
      @Toonrick12 3 роки тому +1

      Yea, those two are hard to use because you can't speed up their creation time. It's also awkward that the Lil Bombards are SLOWER than the Great Bombards. Napoleon guns are also the weakest part of New Hampshire as an age up. You choose that state for the Age 3 Factory and the 5 Regulars.
