    Hey Drongo, thank you very much for the cast 😃.
    You were absolutely right with what you said. Requiem did an awesome job with all the raids. He was constantly raiding me with small groups of raiders, which distracted me in the early game so much that I didn't realize how far ahead I was. While my Greek army was very strong in head-to-head fight, it was too slow to stop the multiple raids on the various gold mines, and so I lost a lot of vills which I shouldn’t have lost. And it also took me so much time to defend against all the raids. A few walls would have been the solution, but unfortunately I realized that to late. But still, the game was a lot of fun and definitely helped me to improve 😃.

      Are you perchance an aoe3 player? I have noticed that walls seem less popular as a defense to raiding outside of aoe2 but are especially rare in aoe3. Some early walls would absolutely have changed the outcome of this game.

      Yeah, you are right, I feel like walls aren’t very popular at the moment. Many players are going for very aggressive attempts. But here, Walls would have definitely made a big difference. I think after I killed his army I should have just backed up, go for heroic and a second Tc. I guess that would have been the easiest way to get further ahead. Allowing these raids was for sure a big mistake. And no, I played Age 3 and Age 2 a bit, but I'm mostly a AoM Titans Player. I never played very competitive orientated or very active, but with retold now I'm really trying to improve my skill level 😃. Which Age games did you play?

      @@Benni_Wr all of them, but mostly 2. Walls certainly felt most usefull in 2, 3 has too many ranged units and artillery for walls ro really be good. Walls are also, obviously more durable in aoe2 because they can only be attacked and destroyed block by block as opposed to in sections. But in this game walls seemed more useful, if only because artillery is less plentiful and comes later and melee units are more common. I anticipate walls backed by towers with towers near gathering points will become a staple of retold's multiplayer.

      @Benni_Wr 3 місяці тому

      @iampk13 Yeah, you are absolutely right 👍🏼. I guess with Zeus, I would have pushed in harder. But with Hades and the many toxotes I had, I felt like I didn’t have enough. And I also didn’t realize that he had absolutely nothing left 😅.

    Achilles should have an ability. Ajax has his shield bash, and Perseus the meduas head etc. Achilles maybe could be ultra tanky vs human soldiers, or be able to jump in a wooden horse and run off idk... They could also give Jason a golden fleece to heal himself and others maybe, and have Theseus do critical damage vs Minotaurs. The sky really is the limit with this. Maybe give Hercules a very small AoE to represent his Demigod like strength .Loads of ideas based on historical myth to think about.

      @@integralinsanity1641 yeah it is almost as bad as wall destroyer god power of that god that no one uses. I think it is suppose to be used to burn wood near main base so that the player is suppose to go further away from main base to collect wood. this allows you to raid villagers more easily because they're further away from main center. I think its issues is that it has only 1 charge. if it had like 4 charges. you could just burn everything in main base and use it as tactical way to pull villagers away from the base.

    I don't think there's any bad God powers I think it depends on how you use it. If your opponent is walling up and using trees as a natural wall you can use Forest Fire to burn a hole in their wall. Freeze is good if you're trying to siege an enemy forward base. Freeze their troops and focus on destroying military production.
