"If georgians didn't have Monaspa" -- I think they're also really broken because of the free mule cart counting as a building so they can go up stupid fast at 16 pop which is basically Mongols
@@sgtpepper8581id be fine with that if they also cost 10 gold less and 5 less food. Make them mini knights :d. Because they're still fairly vulnerable to archers.
I thought the same. He was trying the 'play macro, survive, get to imp', so the mango looked good to my newbie eyes. The mango maybe would cause yo to force the issue and get outmicroed or something... i guess but to be honest, hera seemed a bit tilted at that point already... 'screw it, i'll make a tc here and if it gets denied i'll concede' and all that
People do, many times. In this case, skirmishers are expensive to tech into (they need elite skirmisher + fletching + bodkin + ballistics + double archer armor) as well as the construction of a university, so it is impractical. Instead, a few scorpions do the job just as well and they need zero upgrades.
lmao @ 5:00 classic hera "No loom, it never gets punished!"

Monaspa stats should be nerfed, - 2 melee damage and melee armor

Japanese and Khmer can also go up 16 pop. I don't think the up time is necessarily "broken"
@@Prawn47 but those aren't crazy civs. same with mongols. The point is Georgians is busted in every other category PLUS they get crazy up time.
AHAHAH -
In the last 5 matches, I wonder who will play better now
I have a question. Aint it worth it for hera to keep making a couple light cav to fight enemy siege?
the main thing was going 3 tcs iguess
Yeah, it felt like he went too greedy with only economy + boom with only a few scorpions to defend. Maybe even redemption monks against mangonel?
cav archer just 1 shot light cav before reaching the mangonel, a counter mango would be better but it would be skill to snipe the other mango
Noob question: why did hera only make scorpions? When he saw enemy mangos, he could have switched to his own mangos, right?
They die ez to ca and they are expensive
It like all in go scorpion and hope for the best
( I’m noob also )
not exactly full switch but one would be good

crazy 😮
CA push with some civilization is hard to defend.
Why do people not go for skirms against CA ?

@@skipper472 In addition to that, Roman skirms suck and don't scale into imp, whereas roman scorps have bonuses.
Gg
