Re: Britons as popular pick: It may have to do with how the A.I. plays versus humans, and how longbows are very adept at countering their tactics. Especially with the new A.I., non-elite players can find themselves overwhelmed by the computer's APM advantage- they can't manage their eco while trying to stem the constant stream of individual units the A.I. throws at you. Mass Longbows simplify micro, letting them stand ground and arrow down the enemy as they come in, freeing up mental space for the player to expand eco, build units, move siege into position, etc. Then that preference for Britons gets carried over into multiplayer.
Now imagine if they had the Instant Legolas .... If you don't know what that is, think of it like adding the Chu ko nu's multi shot ability to a longbow. And look it up.
"Assuming you don't have a Saracen teammate, rams and trebs can also add some much needed damage toward buildings." Gotta love a good roast of the Saracens' bonus, well played.
I've been playing extremely casually since around the time the game released and yesterday I managed to beat the AI 1v1 on extreme while playing as the bulgarians. It indeed felt like a great accomplishment lol.
Britons were one of my favourite civs just because of longbowmen, to the point that I neglected siege units because I could take out castles safely and slowly from a mile away with them.
Historical note: Warwolf (Briton unique tech) was the name of a trebuchet that was said to be the largest ever constructed. It was used by Edward I of England to subdue Sterling castle in 1304.
@@mackycabangon8945 apparently, yes "Even before construction could be completed, Scottish soldiers offered surrender, fearing the weapon's potential to destroy the entire castle. Edward sent the truce party back inside the castle, declaring, "You do not deserve any grace, but must surrender to my will." Edward decided to carry on with the siege and witness the destructive power of the weapon. Reportedly, the Warwolf could accurately hurl rocks weighing as much as 135 kilograms (298 lb) from distance of 200 metres (660 ft) and level a large section of the curtain wall."
For an archer civ, I think that rather than thinking the TC wood discount adds 2 farms per TC, the real bonus is that you can go university + ballistics and still add TCs. Archer civs generally have to either prioritize TCs or fast ballistics and they tend to fall behind knight civs economically because they're later to their TCs (even the strongest eco of the archer civs, Vikings, often is kinda all-in with 1-2 TCs at most). Britons can get the best of both worlds and this is a gigantic eco bonus to me.
I remember i hated that bonus for being so useless. I usually didn't make extra tcs. I thought it was meant for when your starting tc was destroyed you could recover easier.
True. I recall ZeroEmpires making a video on them where he mentions Trebuchets having a hard-coded accuracy of 80% against buildings that's hard to see on stats editors. And 15% against units; 45% if you're the Huns. I'm also surprised Spirit didn't mention the Briton Trebs could be a good counter against Onagers that could potentially get too close for comfort, or Bombards.

I want to take a moment and thank Spirit for all of his past breakdowns. I was raised in an AoE household. Been playing for 20 years. Spirit has given a much more in depth game analysis than even the devs. Good work.
Thanks. This was the most expecting video of the year for me. Now I´m waiting for the Byzantines. I played AOE II as a child like in 2010. Now I want to come back to revive memories, and the two civilizations that most attract my attention are the britons and the byzantines. Because I´m more interested in the DE than in the HDE, that´s why I wanted an updated guide. My wishes have been granted.

Love that you're updating these. Just started playing again with some friends after ten or twenty years, lol, so we've been watching your vids. But it's crazy how much things have changed, so thanks for going back and putting in the extra work.
I´ve watched this channel for 3 years and just now started playing, lovely to see the updated civ overviews as many of them are indeed quite outdated. Thanks man.
Thank you for revisiting!!!! You're extremely thorough and your analytical view on all your videos is so good that I sometimes prefer just watching your uploads over playing (mostly rewatching because I've seen most if not all). Also, your narration voice and volume is on point 👌 watch out David Attenborough and Morgan Freeman 😎
Dude, I don't even own DE and mostly played aoe2 years and years ago, yet i watch these videos as soon as you upload them. It's some combination of the thorough detail, excellent editing with clear examples of what you're talking about, and your sikly smooth voice. Keep up the good work.
@@theobsidiangaming5381 Oh my... no thumb nails. Is that what it takes to motivate them to shoot so far? How gruesome. Ya, they are exactly not snipers with this ridiculously bad accuracy. More like super-high-range shotguns.
I love the idea of revisiting civs. Thank you for doing so ! If I may, I have 2 nuances though : -Yeomen for Imperial : mostly true, but highly aggressive castle age that lasts forever is not *that* rare and Yeomen can make quite a difference there. Corner case maybe ? I think it still deserves a shout out. -Cavalry : Although lacking Bloodlines, Husbandry is cool and a full blacksmith tree is a C+ to me, since you wont hand out D and below anyway. Take Celts for instance, I'd rather have fully upgraded Cavaliers than super expensive Paladins lacking Plate. Anyway, fantastic job as always, I wish you keep going for a long time
I find it funny that they still specify "Foot archer civilisation" since all archer civs bonuses lean towards the foot archer-line (Mayans, Ethiopians, Italians)
Spirit - Love your videos! You made me come back to AoE2, where I started to play competitively. Now I'm playing around 1200 elo, and am watching a lot of T90, Viper and Hera, too! Thanks for introducing me to the community! If I could recommend a topic for you: I'd love to see an analysis of how many knights are needed to wipe up a group of crossbows - I feel that's a classic clash of popular strategies (Knight vs Archer rush), and I never know how many knights I need to engage. You could twist it by analysing how different armor and attack upgrades affect the trade, how civ bonuses work out and when it is cost efficient vs effective (clean all archers, regardless of resource efficiency). Happy to discuss!! Love your work, keep it up!
I dont know about anyone else, but the reason I like playing britons (and celts for that matter) is because when I first started playing age, I was a little kid. I couldnt buy the full game, so I just kinda played the trial/demo version over and over. The demo only let you play as celts or britons on coastal. Its a good nostalgia trip every so often to play one of these civs
"They pair well with Franks" Stop. And think about what you just said. Do you really think that's a good idea? On the other hand, I can see some use for the friendly fire of the trebuchets then
I thought this was one of your best videos yet! The video was very informative. There was a lot of info that I didn’t know. Also the video keeps going at a good pace- not too fast but not too slow. I noticed you changed some of the music too! Overall, well done! I think the developers should have given them a better navy. “Britannia rules the waves”, right? Oh well.
Last time I played, I was in 4th grade. That's like 2006/07 for me. Played today on Moderate and got whooped. I'm so slow. But i still enjoyed it. Missed the game and so happy to come back to it
Hey, SOTL, you should do a Top Five Most OP Team-Ups or something! Take a look at a pair of civilizations whose team bonus and unit composition boost eachother beyond the sum of its parts (and that way my brother and I can use it as a guide to crush everyone else!)

Hello and thanks for this video! Love this series, and while you obviously have a lot of projects, could you also do this for the Italians? They are an underrated civilisation in my opinion. Keep up the good work!!

Glad you mentioned bringing a few monks along with massed longbows. Really adds to their longetivity.
