@@anthraxous got the idea from one of AoE3 ottoman sipahi mod. The mod allows you to recruit sipahi instead of from just shipment, but it is limited by the amount of farms you have. The logic is Sipahi are noble cavalry landowners that tasked for tax farming historically. The more you have farms the more sipahi you can support. Same thing with population limit i think. The lower strate of society basiclaly feed the upper class warrior to fight their war.
Christmas caps? I thought they were night caps. I imagine them tired and wanting to go to sleep or just waking up. I also imagine their uniforms to be PJs.
There is another Hatamoto Samurai you can get in the game. You can train him from the Consulate when you make a contract with the Japanese Isolation. HITPOINTS: 1080 (540+540) SPEED: 4.50 RESISTS: 0.40 SIEGE ATTACK: 222 GUARDIAN ATTACK: 107 3×🐎 HAND ATTACK: 107 Its damage can increas to max 139, hitpoints max 1425, and siege attack max 250. Of course your country should be Japan to be eable to train it. This is the best soldier you can get in the game.
@@thewanderingdoomed4883 You could just get a lot of gold and get the card that turns all your gold into a bigger amount of export I used to do this but train dutch musk instead for some reason
I love the hatamoto samurai. Was playing against a Dutch player, they wrecked my forward base and ashi musks and 2 daimyo with a flood of field guns and halbs (age 4). As they were heading towards my main city, I was able to train 10 hatamoto, which destroyed their entire army (at the cost of all but 1). It was epic. They held them off long enough to let me train some cav to take out their cannons.
@@SamuraiRevolution It was in deccan, so bottlenecking helped. All but one lived, it was like straight out of a movie lol. Anyway, love the content, keep up the good work :)
honestly apache cavalry is insane. they get x2.5 damage against vils, on a ranged cavalry unit that's insane. they do good damage anyway especially against heavy cav, and with france you can give natives a huge attack bonus too
You know what would be awesome? SamuraiRevolution vs T90Official on AoE II. and then AoE III. Don't know why, but i feel those would be some fun matches.
Sipahi were just landlords which were rewarded with territories and they had to pay taxes with fresh recruits. That's right, you would sow your land only to recruit more soldiers and send them to Istanbul.
Would not a mathematical viewpoint be good for a video like this? Check out some of Spirit of the laws content and the way he makes his videos. The math of Age of empires III would be interesting to hear more about and not public opinion.

Abus gun of Ottoman is the best unique unit. You don't have to train culverin when you already have them. Don't forget they function as Ottoman skirmisher also. So they actually perform double role: skirmisher and culverin. Imagine that you only use 2 population slots for every abus gun that function as both skirmisher and culverin. Russia' s Cossack is also one of the best unique unit in the game. Abus Gun is the best infantry -artilery unique unit, cossack is the best cavalry unique unit. They are fast, as fast as Hussar but only use one population slot. Two Cossacks that use the same two population slot like one Hussar is a lot stronger in attack and hitpoints than one Hussar. Three Cossacks that uses the same three population slots as one sipahi or one Cuirassier, are ot only a lot stronger than each of them but they are also slighly faster. They funcion as anti infantry cavalry like Cuirassier, Sipahi, and Lancer, but faster and can be trained in earlier age. They also serve as villager raiding cavalry, which is a lot more effective than hussar. Since available early, Russia is one of the earliest and most effective civilization when it comes to early villagers raiding.
I think this vid title maybe a Bit misleading since not only are you going over nonunique units aswell as Missing out on many unique units but you also seem to present Them in a weird light im not sure if your Chanel is meant for casual Players or What rank you have but i feel light its not on the Level of Interjection for Example also making it depend on a community vote of which idk how many have a casual game sense and then calling it the Best is a Bit misleading in my opinion Non the less im sure you entertain but its not very educational
Jäger is german and what they are wearing is called a "Schlafmütze" in german, which means something like "Sleeping-cap". But back when Jäger were used, these Caps were in military use.
Seems like a strange poll. Including mercs as "unique" units seems strange since mercs aren't really unique, and putting musk-type units with archers and riflemen is also a bit stange. Ranged infantry choices should have been something like: lb, yumi, aenna, forest prowler, wakina, mace, gurkha, strelet, chu ko nu, arquebusier.
snowisthebestweather unique units are anything that cannot be trained from a barracks or stable. The regular units you are talking about were done in a previous video!
Im noticing that all of theese Unique units can be seen (on the map not using shipments) in the campagins (Spahi Act 1 Blood, Hatamoto Act 1: Japan, Black Rider Act 3 Steel, Jaeger Act 2 Ice, Petard Act 1 Fire) Coincidence? I think no
I love the french in aoe3 and can verify that massed war wagons were the bain of my existence when trying to storm into german settlements with heavy cav. Also the cuirassiers are quite expensive to spam, the french rely heavily on an economic powerhouse provided by their coureurs des bois that is unparalleled by anyone other than the japanese in my opinion. So, a little tip for easily defeating french is hit their settler economy hard and early to halt their boom.
u can train hamato samurais w food and gold as well! just use shipments and send shogun tokugawa on age 4 and then u can train hamatos and shinobi Archers by him
SamuraiRevolution You also forgot to mention that Spahi regenerate health slowly over time as well, so when they take heavy damage, you can pull the out of the fight for a little while, and in 3-5 minutes, they're already back up to 3/4 of their maximum health from one health, all on their own. I do have a question though. In that latest British gameplay you showed, the Spanish player was all over his missionaries(he had like 12 of them) and was using them in the front line for lots of healing. I feel like this strategy is a rather poor one, considering the priest/imam/missionary/surgeon/French explorer with upgrade 's healing is a ability on a cooldown, rather than something that is slow but always going, like in Age Of Empires II. I don't generally like the healing strategy in this game as I personally feel that healers are majorly underpowered thanks to their healing not being automatic(once again, like in Age of Empires II, and only having manual healing except for field hospitals means that such requires a frankly ridiculous amount of micro) and, as I said, also due to the fact that their healing is treated more like the faith mechanic for conversions from the previous game(except without the randomness in success rate) than the healing in Age Of Empires II. I would however, like to know your thoughts on this. Do you use healer units often? If so, why, and in what way? If not, what is your reasoning in not using them?
@@SamuraiRevolution yeah, thats the point. its a mercenary, not a unique unit. the spahi is a unique unit. the doppelsöldner is a unique unit. a mercenary is not (unless its the jat lancer for example)
